yeah. I am sure everyone is feeling a little stressed right now over all this holiday stuff, I don't even have children and feel a little nusto! I think I volunteered for too many swaps and maybe didn't anticipate so many people orderding from my shop as well as placing special orders. I am not complaining! I just need to learn better time management skills I guess. Work was totally creepy this week. One of our Armored trucks was robbed at gunpoint and actually stolen-the whole thing (I work in a cash vault)! Then our bank was robbed. Everyone is okay-I actually didn't see the "robber" because I was in the vault-but ew-so creepy. It is scary to think what would happen if he would have tried to come into the vault-yuck. I know that is the risk I take when I go to work everyday -but I just try not to think about it-this week-it was hard not to.
Okay...onto happy times! Here is what I got from Alison:
Thanks so much! It made my day. The handmade pouch is so cute and sewn so professionally. I love it all.
With some of the money I've been making from my Etsy shop I treated myself to a little silkscreened tote made by threedogparty-here it is:
It is just the right size for all the stuff I take to work and I feel goofy carrying it (in a good way).
I also got the lovely Cotton and Paint mag from Momo-thanks momo! It is the one that Molly Chicken showed a while back. Here are some of my fav parts:
and this cute guy
I have been working my tail off carving and stamping-and hope to get my "Happy New Year" cards up in my "etsy shop today. I put up some new stuff yesterday, like these jumbo tags
and some other new tags. I am also knitting my arse off and ended up frogging almost an entire hat out of Rowan biggy print because the hat came out entirely too "biggy". Oh well...onward...
