October

How is it already October?  I mean, seriously.  Over here, September was kind of cold.  Until the last week, when its been really nice.  I hope October is kind of warm this year.  I def can't wait til Halloween.

I made a total of $99.99 last month out of my $160 goal.  Gah.  Atleast I made that much, though.  I already spent $20 this month, on 100 Bubble wrap mailers.  That is the ONLY money I plan on spending on my shops except for the listing fee.  I have been selling a bit on ebay too, and they have free auction listing fee's until January so hopefully I will be able to list everything and sell a lot on there.

So, one more week until my give away is over.  I only have 3 participants at the moment.  I'm hoping to get to atleast 10.  So I will be working extremly hard to promote that until about Thursday.

Hope everyones been having a good week!

Happy September guys!

I cant believe its already September.  Where did the summer go?  Where did the YEAR go?

My goal is to make $5 a day to get to 160 by the end of September.  That would make up HALF my debt.  And I've been doing good with that.  Nothing sold on ETSy, but my Highschool friend sold 4 bracelets today, making me $8!!  And I had to make a custom bracelet for a friend of hers, so atleast $1 made tomorrow.  And since its only a half day tomorrow, shes not bringing my stuff to school, which is okay.  I cant make her sell it all the time.

I am working on Halloween things.  I've actually added quite a few new things in my shop.  Here are some pictures:

On other note, today has been a busy day.  Blake has ketchup for the first time today.  He's still iffy on it.  I'm not a big ketchup fan myself, but if he wants it then he can have it.

I took down the baby crib, it was taking up a lot of space in the living room.  I'm going to have to find a place to put all the peices now.

The cats have now discovered the mice.  I had the door to my room open, not a good idea.  Yeah, Buddy and Bongo just sit at the cage and look confused.  Marbles ignores them.  And Frankie tried to attack them through the cage.

And I have been listing things on ebay like crazy.  I still plan on moving soon, and yeah.  I'm trying to get rid of as much as possible.  And all my stuff is cheap too.  And I'm throwing in some of my bracelets on ebay, I already sold one!  But I figure its advertisement, so why not take it?

Well, Its Thursday once again

Which means I have to work all weekend.  I hate it.  I really really hate it.  I'm looking for a new job becasue I'm starting to not be able to handel this anymore.  Horrible?  Probably.

I wish my etsy shop would take off.  Or do better.  I already have 50 items listed!  Well, actually 49 becasue ones a trade, so yeah.

I'm hoping to make 3 or 4 new bracelets today.  I dont really have the right beads to make necklaces, and wont for a while.  Not until I get money in my paypal account.  No more buying supplies, the money I spend on that shop now is mostly going to be advertising (not alot though, just craftcult) and the .20 fee to list an item.

Hopefully everyone is having better luck with their shops!
