I have been doing a LOT of thinking about my goals. My recent post about not meeting a goal is an excellent reminder to me that when I make goals, I need to be sure they are good goals for me. As I was thinking about what that means, I thought that some of my [...]

Here’s to a great 2009! Now, I know most people seem to want to forget that 2008 ever happened, and I can understand that. A lot of bad things happened last year. But I’d like to focus on the positive things, and work on improving the things that weren’t so good. I know that I [...]

One of my goals for 2009 is to get my etsy shop fully stocked, as well as a shop right here on my own website. By fully stocked, I mean every item I can make multiples of should be listed on my website and my etsy shop. This way, it will be easy for people [...]
