Mood Swings

I've been a little, ahem, testy since I quit smoking. Mainly because I don't know how to take moment to go chill out. Before, if I was getting to stressed, I would dash outside, have a smoke and come back in a little calmer. Right now, I feel like my brains are being scrambled. I've been a little moody and a LOT stressed.

The holiday season is in full swing at my store and it's a little nuts in there. I don't think we are all prepared for it. In fact, I know we're not. Some days, we are so busy that we don't get to any of the work that we are supposed to be doing. We don't eat lunch until 3 in the afternoon sometimes! I've done a few interviews and I think I found a girl I like. I sure hope she works, because I need someone in there NOW.

I'm still making jewelry, although I took a break. I started making things because it was the "trend" or because some of my younger staff thought a design would look good. You know what, I started hating everything I made. I never made jewelry to follow trends, I made it because I liked to. So, I've gone back to doing what I want. I'm also making rings now. One of these days, I'll get my photo dock so that I can post pictures.

Well, I have to get to work, too much work, not enough time. Hope you are all well!

Paying It Forward.

Just in case you don't know what paying it forward is, it's where someone does something nice/helpful/cool/generous for you asking nothing in return but for you to do the same for someone else. Well, I have been given that opportunity! Christine at the wonderful Paper and Cloth posted a PIF on her blog and I was the lucky recipient. Here are the rules nabbed from her blog:

The 'pay it forward' rules are:
1) anyone with a blog can join;
2) the first three people to leave a comment on this post will receive a handmade goody from me and I have 365 days in which to send it to you;
3) in return, you have to pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog.

I know that not everyone makes handmade goodies, so please pay it forward in whatever form of kindness that you can. I'm proud to be a part of something that has the potential to spread joy all over the world. Join in with me and lets spread the love!

HUGS and LOVE,
Pinky

Tomorrow marks three weeks since I have had a cigarette. Three whole weeks. I'm really frigging proud of myself.

Keep your fingers crossed, I'm trying to stay this way.

I just don't feel like it anymore.

I don't feel like blogging. I don't think I have anything to say. Oh, I have a ton of things on my mind, but I don't feel like sharing. So, I think I'm going to take a siesta, come back when things are more even, more normal.

Love you guys, see you soon!
