MIA

Yes, I know... I've been MIA! It has been a crazy month and I don't see any let-up until after the first of the year.

Some of you may already know but many won't know that I am in the middle of preparing for a craft show that I do annually in November. I usually do this show and do pretty well with it but last year with the economy doing so badly, I really felt it at my booth and I think most of the other vendors did as well. I don't think as many people came out and certainly weren't buying.

Other reasons for the MIA have been a steady stream of orders that I am working to complete as they come in while working on the show's inventory. I'll post pictures of an order I am completing for a couple of people later this week. I hope they turn out as well as I think they will!

In other news, we are also in the process of taking the foster parenting classes and that is very over-whelming. At the first session, they give you a 2" binder full of papers that have to be completed along with another binder that we use for class. Needless to say, I have not written that much since High School! I keep getting writer's cramp and have to take a break from my paper work! It's a shame that our system isn't better to get those kids into good homes. Enough of that or my heart will break. I have to consider this very carefully because I attach to children very easily... lots of love to give away from our household.

At at last, a few new bows are available at The Trendy Spot! Just in time for halloween, order yours now! I do have a big girls bow(s) that I will be adding later today and some beautiful Christmas bows to add later this week! I'll be adding lots more info soon!
