Long Update for Me!!
Sorry I havent been here in a LONG time.. in between flareups of my fibro, trying to get some of my orders done and out, doing my sales in Ebay (they changed things.. and postage changed, so I have been updating there too).. and just trying to keep up with life and all its disasters.. I had to put this behind..
First I did finally finish the sneaker slippers I had an order for.. put away the slippers for my friend.. as she is willing to wait for it.. and get the orders done that had to be done.. I did a pair of sneaker slippers.. pattern here. Here is a closeup of the side..
I am now working on a star bunting for a baby.. I am just about 1/3 done.. smile.. it is coming very nice.. Pattern can be found here.. I hope to have some pictures by next week..
Of course I am working on my Ebay items for sale.. I am selling books that I am finished reading, as well as DVD's and VHS tapes that we already watched.. I also am reselling my patterns that I have finished scanning to clear them out.. smile.. that part is going slow.. lol.. as I dont leave myself alot of time to scan items.. I generally have around 100 items up for sale at one time.. give or take.. what doesnt sell there.. goes to Listia to be bidded off as a freebie..
This winter has been horrible.. really low temperatures in the single digits or even minus.. and that is without the wind chills.. so going out was really hard on me.. often I ended up with a flareup of my fibro and ended up in bed for a couple days at at time.. so then just read books.. I am currently reading a series by Sarah Graves,, Her Home Repair is Homicide series.. it is both funny, entertaining, and nice mysteries.. I do recommend them to everyone.. I am currently reading Nail Biter..
Well.. guess that is my total update for today.. hope to be back soon..

Slipper Update
While doing that last pair.. I also need to do a rush order for sneaker slippers.. that was suppose to be already done.. still off schedule from Christmas.
At least I got most of my inventory done.. almost all of the stuff that is on Ebay and Listia is done.. and most of the crochet items that are unsold yet.. I already got done with the Valentine's Day towels.. put them up.. and sold them already.. (Yay me).. Next is St. Patty's Day..
I know I will get there.. and have my stuff done.. just takes time.. and time is not what I have alot of.. smile..

Saturday Special
Had a nice day yesterday.. met up with my friend, Grace at Applebees for lunch. I will be making a Star Bunting for her and met up with her to get the yarn she picked out.. she got Baby Econo yarn in a variegated blue green blend.. called Swim Multi.. figure if I double it and use a larger needle, it will be baby size.. smile.. the pattern is for doll size (18 inches long).. since she wants newborn, I should have it around 20 inches long..
Then after I left her.. I hit the hair dresser.. and got a very needed haircut.. stopped at Dollar Tree and Dollar General for Valentine Towels.. and found some nice ones at Dollar General.. hope to get them up and done by the end of this month..
Currently I am working on finished the Knit Look slippers.. got the slipper part done, now working on the edging.. pictures in a day or so..

Finished a pair of bunny slippers
I got this order for these slippers before Christmas.. and they were nice enough to wait until after.. this pair I used the wiggly eyes for.. since it was for an older child.. I used some blue worsted I had in my box.. think it was Red Heart.. felt sturdy enough for slippers..
I am now back working on the knit look slippers for my friend, Kelly's kids.. smile.. am on the last pair now..
Had to slow down on things. one cos I am tired.. lol.. and two.. I have to get the end of year paperwork done.. got most of my inventory done.. just got the VHS tapes up for sale on Ebay to do.. and my Crochet items that I havent sold yet.. that should be fast.. as I dont have much unsold this year.. still alot of paperwork to do..

Well.. it is now 2014..
Now working on clearing out paperwork and clearing out my Buy Sell Community Store (only listing on Ebay now.. for things like patterns, books, DVD and VHS).. that should save me time when I get it all done.. I want to spend more time crocheting.. and less time on the computer..
Been colder than heck here.. It has been years since we got this cold.. and snowy too.. weather makes driving really hard.. both on the car.. and on me.. I end up in pain from it all.. sigh.. so will be staying home as much as possible.. That should help me get all my orders done... and hopefully all my paperwork organized.. Hopefully will update you over the weekend with completed projects!
