I am SO exited!  My ornaments from Christina’s World arrived yesterday.  I just finished taking the picture of them and will get them listed as soon as I can.  I almost have my jewelry ready to list, Connie is helping me with that since I’m a little stretched for time.  My husband has been in the hospital since Monday, and they think he will have to be there another week!  In the mean time, I have been driving his FedEx route (until I found someone else to drive), taking care of his business, trying to get the end of year taxes, spending a lot of time at the hospital and trying to get my new items listed.  Oh yeah, one of our cats knocked over a glass of water and it got my laptop wet.  I didn’t realize it until I grabbed my computer to take to the hospital with me, and by then, it had already messed up my keyboard!  I can use the touchpad and do some things on it, but I’m going to have to take it in to get repaired.  Luckily, my husband has a net-book that I’m using…. I just have to get my files transferred over.  Ugh!!!  Thanks to everyone for thier prayers and “get well” wished for my husband.  Hopefully things will get back to normal soon.

I can’t believe how long it is taking to get my photos edited and list my new items!  Of course, this is the first time that I have attempted this by myself.  My sister, Connie, has done all of this for me before now, but she has her own work to do…… I guess it IS time that I figure this out.  I do have a few photos ready, but have a long way to go.  Thanks to my husband for being ill for the last few days, I had to work his FedEx route for him.  The things we have to do for our husbands! 

To give you an idea of some of the new items that I will be adding, I have a posted a picture of the three necklaces.  In addition to  Halloween necklaces, I have Halloween bracelets and some other themed items. 

My order from Christina’s World should be arriving soon, so I will have ornments available to go on the feather trees.  This also means more photos to edit! 

I’ll keep you posted on when I get items added to the site.  Let me know how you like everything when I do!!

Well, the AmericasMart in Atlanta is coming to an end.  It’s been fun, tiring and expensive!!  There are so many wonderful things to see here, that it has been fun to explore, but I only saw the tip of the iceberg.  I have tried to go in to the Temps with a “game plan”, but always get distracted by something.  I still have to find  supplies for my Halloween feather trees, but have yet to discover the perfect place to shop.  If anyone knows where I can go to find black stem wrap and rolls of tissue paper, please let me know!!  I also need to get wire for the trees and and for my new jewelry projects.  Oh, and I could use some fun beads for my jewelry.  I especially am interested in colorful beads for Christmas, Halloween and Patriotic.

Another chilly start to the morning!  Staying “home” from the Mart today to help Mark get setup for tonights get-together.  I will be missing out on the chance to spend more money, but that’s probably a good thing.  I do need to check out some places in the next couple of days to find supplies for my feather trees.  Now that Christmas is over, I need to get back to making trees.  I was thinking about starting on some for Halloween, probably plain black, or black with orange feathers at the tips.  I have made an orange tree and orange with black tips, but I think I like the black better.  What do you think?
