| if only it was this easy to see the light sometimes |
I am pretty proud of my colleagues. I was having a chat with a co-worker, oh She That I Have Been Threatening to Get Together With And Actually Work on our Blogs and we decided to sit down and brainstorm about marketing ideas. We picked a date and time, threw it our there to our retailers and son of a gun, everyone showed up. 4 weeks in a row. AND in that 4 weeks we conceived of a community shop hop, planned, printed, passed out, promoted collated, explained, exclaimed and ran a 14 business promotion and Lord have mercy, people came, had a blast and visited places in out neighborhood they had never seen before. SO proud we pulled it off. And the best part? had fun doing it.

| patching things together is NEVER this clean |
That said, STILL feel like I am piecing things together to try to make it all happen. Juggling commissioned client work, consignments, art and family time, chasing down friends so I don't lose them, freaking out over IT issues and health care benefits, staff schedules, laundry and carpools, weddings and funerals, medical appointments and tax returns. Hmmm, wait a minute. Isn't that life? Mine at least.
