So, we are back from our mini-vacation, and if it is possible, I am even more exhausted now than before. We had fun, and visited friends we haven't seen in far too long (I finally got to meet my best friend's second baby - what a cutie!). But, I still feel like I need some time off. I need a break ... a change.
We are looking at moving (not sure where yet), and keeping our options open so far as jobs go. I can't imagine that it will be easy for me to get a job with pink hair (and I'm not willing to give it up when I am roughly 2 years from being my own boss). I am going to try and get my butt in gear on some side projects.
I am making a made-to-order jewelry line that I hope should bring in some extra money. I found a great new line of beads and chains and pendants that I can mix with my re-emerging art projects. The line is called 'Lost and Found', and it has a dark/romantic/victorian feel to it. I also have a couple of ideas to widen the selection to appeal to more people. I will probably start with taking orders through my blog, and we'll see where it goes from there.
I've got a bunch of other art projects in mind, and I have started sewing and knitting again. I have this need to 'finish' things. It's a weird feeling, since I am usually all about new projects and ideas. I guess my muse has switched tracks to help me clean up a bit of the clutter around my apartment.
That is about all I can think of right now. I should go and make myself somethng to eat. DW is at work this weekend, so it is just me and the little bottomless pits that disguise themselves kitties. I might actually finish my sweater this weekend.
I'll try and get some of the pics of our vacation up this weekend too.
