Stocking up

So, I am stocking up for my "store". I go in the mail today 43 italian charms for the stock pile.

I now have 5 tarot decks to sell and I am still waiting for the stones to arrive.

I think I will schedule a tea and tarot night for middle to end of March and see if anyone is interested in buying.

We'll see.

I'm looking in to "craft" sales, however there isn't much around here until the lead up to xmas :(

I'd love to have a ticker

I'd love to have a ticker on the top of my blog counting down to going somewhere and/or going someplace like others I know do. I have realized that I don't really have anything much to look forward to coming up. Perhaps I'll set a ticker for coutndown to spring...but, then again snow comes in the springtime too! LOL!

baby's here!

So I'm rather late in posting it, but the baby is finally here!

Bruce Devin was born Feb 12th at 7:08pm weighing in a 7lb, 15oz and 22" long :)

He's handsome! I drove to Halifax on Saturday and back again to see him. He's doing well. Mom not so much, but she says it's worth it and dad is a big help, which is great!

However, it really did cement the fact that I'm not cut out for kids! I am cut out for holding them and handing them back! :)

Snow, snow and more snow!

I am sooooo done with snow!

We have had snow every days for the past 3 days and then it's suppossed to stop today only to start again overnight, then stop again tomorrow to have a big snowstorm on Wednesday.

*le sigh*

I don't have the money, but I think I'll start looking at vacations at sunny, wamr beach locations today instead of working! LOL!!

So glad it's Friday

I am soooooo glad it's Friday - I can't beleive how long this week has seemed!

I want to take the time this weekend to finish up most, if not all of the baby sewing that I have on the go - I have 2 full body bibs and 4 bags to finish up.

I also want to outline a "business plan" as such for the spirit bells, tarot, treasure bags and boxes and stones that I'm looking at doing more of.

I will probably have to take a run out to Michaels to get some display stuff readied as well.

Saturday night is games night at a friend's house and Sunday has a baby shower for a friend's daughter who is having a baby girl. I have one spirit box left, so it's going to her. :) I feel really good about that because I know that she will appreciate the spiritual nature of the gift more so than any one else.

I'm not entirely sure why I'm in such a good mood - other than it's Friday either...but I've been happy and giggly all day!

I have to drop some money off to Judy tonight, so I think I'll go visit her for an hour or so.

Oh! I weighed myself this morning and in the 1 week since joining the gym (going to the weight room twice and the pool twice) and modifying most of my eating (I'm giving up mcdonalds and trying to give up chocolate!) I've lost 4 lbs! Yaay for me! Which is nice incentive to keep going.

We'll see - I have an ambitious goal of losing minimum 30 lbs (maximum 52 lbs) in the 3 months that I have the membership - minimum 10 lbs a month should be do-able. We'll see.

Other than that, I think that's the update on the weekend to come. I'll post about it on the other side and compare :)

Whoohoo!!

The 4 ordered Tarot decks have arrived!! - Spiral Tarot, Rider Wiate, Radiant Rider Waite and tarot of a moon garden!

YAAAY! :)

If anyone is in need of a Tarot deck, please let me know.

It's only Tuesday?

Wow! It feels like Thursday!

I don't go back and read what I had previously posted, so I'm not sure if I had posted that Ganky is home after a hospital stay of 5 days. Tha'ts not bad at 91 for pneumonia. He still has pneumonia, but they thought that he would be good enough to go home for the weekend and he did fairly well so he can stay home.

YAAAY!

I have gone to the gym 3 times since Thursday, so that's a good thing! I'm not going to go today as they are calling for a snow storm, so I'll have to shovel anyway, so might as well save the energy for what's needed.

I'm still working on getting stock in for my "store" or table or whatever it ends up being. Laurie had a good idea of going to the Kingston Peninsula market. Doubt I'll do it each week, but I told her that I would be interested in splitting a table and the cost with her. She seemed open to the idea.

I have a 1lb pack of polished stones coming in, along with a quartz crystal point and a nice malachite. Still waiting on the 4 tarot decks to arrive (hoping those will be in today before Tarot group) and I've got another 20-ish wiccan themed charms ordered and I hope that they will be in over the next couple of weeks. I am glad I bought out the Tarot charms when I did as he upped the price on all of them from 1.49 starting bid to not being able to bid on them and buy them for $9.99!!! I think that was my fault for buying them all up in the first place, but oh well! :)

I have to finish sewing up the baby stuff first, then I can continue on with the tarot/stone bags. Then once I get double digits of the bags finished I will start on the tank totes. I think those will actually be quicker and easier than the tarot bags! LOL!! We'll see...the biggest and best intentions... :)

Have an IUD check this afternoon at 4pm - BAH. :( Hoping to go home after that and get a nap before going out tonight... if the snow stays away that is!

Not off to a good start...

Soooo...day 1 of going to the gym. I went from 1:20 - 2:30pm this afternoon. Much too busy for my tastes! I was speaking with a lady who told me it was really busy between 4 and 6 pm. :( Phooey! So much for going after work as I guess almost EVERYone does that.

Also, I'm really tired now - I could just curl up and go to sleep! not a good thing to come back to work and do. I kwno that exercising is suppossed to give you energy, but it has always had the opposite effect.

oh well... eat my apple and shut up already! :)

Day 2 should be better...right?!
