As long as I always make rent I won't be upset.<br />But I do hope to do well in November when they have the Open House.<br />I plan to get everything that might bring in some good dollars out there then.<br />And after that, well I'll just keep cleaning house and moving stuff out there.<br />I will hold back the garden stuff for Spring though.<br />And you are SO RIGHT! I LOVE getting stuff out of the house.<br /><br />Love that you feel the same way about being social! LOL!<br />And thank you!

I also identify with your reluctance to be social.<br /><br />Your pumpkins are really cute!Connie in Hartwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09127877285792861166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32438389452256998.post-23271793477252176072015-10-09T08:56:20.630-05:002015-10-09T08:56:20.630-05:00Tammy,
I do feel a change.
I must say that my head...Tammy,<br />I do feel a change.<br />I must say that my head felt clouded before. I guess it was because I was so tired and overwhelmed. Or maybe it's the Moon and stuff. <br />Thank you about my pumpkins and what a super sweet thing to say about my Art in general. xoxo<br />Yes, the lazy girl is gone.<br />I might share more about that later but I'm the kind of person that takes it and takes it and takes it and then, I'm done. Completely DONE and no turning back. I've always been like that.<br />My sister says I go into "you are dead to me" mode. LOL!<br />Wait, that might not actually be funny.<br />um... the responsibility? Uh, no. it's me. <br />But it's a plan, within a plan. ;)<br />and socializing... I always say that I'm an introvert who pretends to be an extrovert.<br />I can do it if I have to but I'd much prefer to home with my animals.<br />XOXOXOXOXOCindi Myershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475347748831862659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32438389452256998.post-14243666481941991272015-10-09T06:33:34.450-05:002015-10-09T06:33:34.450-05:00this is a great post.

I'm glad you like the pumpkins!
Yes, to...Vicki,<br />I'm glad you like the pumpkins!<br />Yes, tossing those balls around can be stressful but I can see a goal and progress so it's not so bad.<br />It's not like this summer when I was working 24/7 and no end was in sight and I felt like I was being stomped down into the ground. Thank god that is over. Hopefully that won't happen ever again and I feel like I'm laying down a foundation to which to build a brighter future.<br />Then again, it could be the weather! LOL! Cool Fall weather always energizes me!<br />And then I've been getting positive feed back. I've sold a couple of prints now and that's encouraging.<br />I'm definitely not a super-hero. I just feel like I gotta do this Art stuff NOW because I'm not getting any younger and I need to get it going so that some day I'll be able to kick some of these balls outta here!<br />and Thank You for always encouraging me and cheering me on!<br />XOXO<br />Cindi Myershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475347748831862659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32438389452256998.post-36903969862906196152015-10-09T05:54:44.182-05:002015-10-09T05:54:44.182-05:00Thank you Doreen!

I'll have to rein myself in a bit and try to stay focused on my Etsy shop.<br />And you are right, as long as I'm getting rid of stuff and making the booth rent, I'm good.<br />:) :) :)<br />Thanks for commenting!<br />xoxoCindi Myershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475347748831862659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32438389452256998.post-23606697394980663202015-10-09T00:46:04.116-05:002015-10-09T00:46:04.116-05:00Love the pumpkins, Cindi!

Just perfect for Halloween.<br /><br />De-cluttering and juggling - keeping balls up in the air ready to fall into the right place, can be stressful, but it sounds like it's all positive energy, so that's really good :)<br /><br />Personally, with all that's going on in your life - and has been going on, and caring for all your gorgeous fur crew in the mix - I think you're a bit of a super hero!! I really do!<br />As if working full time, with a creative pursuit on the side, isn't enough for most people!<br />You really are an INSPIRATION! I feel ashamed that I'm not doing enough :)<br />Bottle up some of that vibrant energy and send it on over will ya? :D<br /><br />Wishing you LOADS of luck and encouragement. Keep on keeping on!<br />Looking forward to the next installment. Super excited for you! So much!<br />Hugs XXX<br /><br />Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16023748614942747415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32438389452256998.post-78968623421076722722015-10-08T23:39:54.301-05:002015-10-08T23:39:54.301-05:00I think your pumpkins are fabulous Cindi! You are ...I think your pumpkins are fabulous Cindi! You are so very talented. I'm delighted things are selling at your booth, and I know what you mean about it being fine that you're not making that much money at it. You're just starting out, but sometimes it isn't always about making a lot of money (although that's awesome too). You're clearing stuff out and perhaps even gaining confidence that 'you can do this'. I'm sure your etsy shop will be a success too.

Even people who start their own businesses say they don't make much money at first, so don't get discouraged about start up revenues. Getting the word out about your skills and artistry will draw lots of customers for your work.At Rivercrest Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12068816102263605128noreply@blogger.com
