Another day, another dollar

I am not feeling very well right now. I have an incredible headache that doesn't seem to want to let up. To top that off I took an 800mg Motrin on an empty stomach, so I feel queasy too. I am going to eat right now, and hope that it helps me feel better.

I came to the realization yesterday that selling those bows like I had planned is probably not going to be as easy as I'd hoped. Luckily I have a friend who has kind of navigated the crazy world that is Etsy, so she has been giving me advice and even agreed to go to a craft fair with me in the future. She makes handbags and reusable grocery bags, they are pretty awesome!

Bedtime as of late has been a battle with little one. She has a certain movie she wants to watch all the time and she will lay there and actually watch it instead of going to sleep. Then she will list off all of the people she can and ask me where they are. I tell her everyone is asleep. Are they really? I don't know but she doesn't need to know that. She was on a schedule where she was asleep by 9:00, but now she will fight as long as possible. Just last night she was up until 11:45ish. :( Hopefully this phase doesn't last too long or I am going to have to tranquilize her (just kidding, not really lol).

I am going to focus on eating right now, so I will check back in later. Hope everyone has a great day!

Hair Bow Madness!

After making those frames I really felt like crafting! I wanted to find a way to make a little bit of money while doing something I like so while browsing http://www.etsy.com/ I decided that I'd try to make some hair bows. I went and got the supplies and got to complete about 10 or so. Out of the ones I finished I like 2 pairs. I am going to put pictures up a little while later, cause I dont know how to from my phone!

*Edit: I made one more batch tonight, and I am much happier with the new ones! 

These are the ones I liked from the first batch.

And these are all of the ones from tonight. 


I hope everyone is doing good. Things are ok here. I am still dealing with everything, and I am finding that people will do things to make it harder if you allow them to. I won't be allowing that anymore though. I have to stop putting the feelings of others over my own. It is a tough thing to do but it will be so worth it :)! Until later, I hope you all have a great day and HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2011 is going to be great!
