Good Show!
.
For someone who sat on her butt most of the day, I sure am tired!
The show was good! Not great but pretty darn good. I do, however, have a new Personal Best - made more money than I have at previous shows. And took a few orders, always good.
Thanks Mom, for lunch. I told Steve all the moms were there. My mom, Steve's mom and Steve's ex-mother-in-law, who is one of my best customers! And Mom - your friends, Mary Ann, Kathy and Betty all stopped by. And hi to Pam - always appreciate your love and support, my friend. And a big hello to any new friends popping in here!
I'm off to work today but it's Friday - who can't do a Friday? We have breakfast at work, a meeting I'm looking forward to and a massage after work.
I have two shows next week Thursday and Saturday. Driving home last night I decided to take off the Friday between. The Thursday show is only the 2nd annual and from what I hear, last year's show wasn't too hot - because the restaurant (Daisy Flour Mill) where it was held was not as completed as it was supposed to have been. I'm not clear on the details. So I guess based on that alone I have low-ish expectations. Although as I passed out my card of future shows and told people about it, their reaction was enthusiastic.
But I expect Saturday's show at St. John's School to be a biggie for me.
I have a lot of stuff to make to replace what sold yesterday (mostly Post-It-Note pads, pins and bookmarks, all which sold like crazy). I sold 3 framed pieces, whereas last show I sold 7. But the woman who bought 4 last time came back and ordered 2 more, along with more stuff!
No rest for the weary!

Congratulations on your new Personal Best, and here's to topping that!
Here's hoping every show is a personal best! Well done!
If we can get more Moms to buy your wares you will stay in business because we all know they are the ones who send cards!!
Marvelous!
I wish I lived near you because I would love to see your creations in "living color".
I wish you could see them too Joan. As beautiful as they look on the website, they are really spectacular for real. And they just keep getting better. Place an order and then you will be able to see how beautiful they really are!
She's shameless, isn't she? (Thanks, Mom.) :-)
With a Mom like yours, there is no "fail" in the books for you.

Thanks Stefani, they mean a lot.
