I haven't forgotten about everyone, but Baby Girl is out of school this week and it's hard to plan time to do blogs, jewelry, cleaning and partying with the baby. We made fuse bead creations for hours yesterday! She helped me clean the computer room (it really needed it!) and we hung up pictures and organized all her books. It was good. For some reason, I get more housework completed when she is at home. I don't know why, but it's always been like that. I guess because she makes it more fun than it really is.
I'm hoping to have pictures up later of new work. I'm starting to freak out a little this month. I haven't had ONE sale for the whole month of November. It's starting to scare me. I really thought with the Craft Revolution article and some of the other advertising I have done, that I would have a good sale month. But I got nothing, nada, zip, dried up. Which makes me freak out heavily. I'm hoping that everyone is just saving up for after Thanksgiving and then I will be slammed with orders! (seriously, I'm really, really hoping that's what it is.)
I'm going to try to get by everyone's houses today to see what all has been going on. I miss everyone, but if you have little ones, you know time schedules don't always work like you want them to. Hugs and love to everyone! ~Pinky!

Hey sweetie..that's xactly what it is..the big rush right after thanksiving..maybe we could put a banner on our sites to help steer people your way..what do you think?? I think its just more fun cleaning and putzing around the house with little ones helping..luv ya Pinky..m
I remember when my youngest started school... I missed her so much... we used to bake together in the afternoons. Darn, that was 20 years ago. But fyi time schedules don't always work out with big ones either... LOL
lotsa luv ann xxxxx
I totally understand. I hope thanksgiving is a wonderful one for you!

Real life collides with blogging. I think, much as I miss you, blogging should be the least of your concerns.
I don't understand about no sales. I will add a link to the rest of the posts this week.
Now go relax, and have some FUN on the holidays.
I also get more done when the kids are home, lol. Weird! I think you hit it when you said it's more fun, because doing the housework for all these years gets REALLY boring! My parents got divorced when I was 7 and my 3 brothers and I ended up living with our Dad--I started doing housework when I was 7 and haven't stopped since-And I'm 45 now! Let me tell you, that is a *&%^(*)&% lot of housework! LOL OK...on to the next subject I want to whine about, lol, lack of sales. Business has slowed way, way down for me too Pinky, so don't feel bad, you are not alone. It certainly is not because you don't have awesome things to sell for sure! I think (hope) that things will pick up right after Thanksgiving-and they should have most of the bugs worked out of the Etsy site by then too. Smile and enjoy your time with the little blondie!
Hey Pinky..how are you sweetie..? I'm with Brian..maybe if we remind every one to go there..? i will be happy to put a link too..
((PINKY))..hey sweetie..I forgot..put my pictures up..under pages, Jewelry by madd..that way I can show you the braclet while I tell you how i did it..kool..luv ya ..m
Hey there, Pinky! I COMPLETELY understand about the "kids home - no time for Blogging" deal, and besides, have fun with that adorable child of yours!
What's this about no sales??? I thought you were doing so well you might have to hire someone to help keep up with the orders!
Great idea, folks, about telling people, via our blogs, about the possibly the best (best french accent) "artÃste" the world has seen in a long time!
pINKY..OH NO YOU DON'T GIRL..:)yes.. that's me raising my voice to you, you do amazing work..we just work with different stff..I could never have come up with that absolutly gorgeous necklace...!! you are so very talented..I love your work..and I am putting a link on my daily posts right thru christmas,..;;) luv you sweetie..m
Pinky..p.s.forgot..please if you have time tomorrow..call..k?..m
Hey Pinky! Enjoy the week with your daughter! I know I will. I always relax a little more when vacation time starts...no running around town to swim practice, getting to school on time...just lazy days!
I just re-opened my Etsy store and already, I see all the bugs that have to be worked out. I wonder why they didn't wait until January to make the switch? That's just me thinking out loud. I have also been reading some forums and blogs and it sounds like sales are down for everyone right now. Too bad, we don't all live in the same area...we could set up our own craft shows every weekend until the the holidays!
My oldest is out of school today so he's at the office with me. It's fun for him cause it's something different. Have fun with Baby Girl!
I placed another order yesterday.....and I'll have one more before Christmas.....everyone needs to go check it out before I buy the whole store....lol
Hugs and Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving!!
I wondered where ya been :)
dont worry, you'll be slammed w/ orders before ya know it.
Little ones definetly get in the way of blogging sometimes... hope your sales get better!!
