Back from the marathon!

Ran the Chicago Marathon this weekend. Wow what an experience. I've run a smaller marathon and I have to say- there is nothing like a big city event. I believe I smiled for all 26.2 miles.
Now it's back to reality. Sigh...but not really, I had put so many things on hold for 'after the marathon' that it's nice to have it behind me. Now it's time for craft shows and product making.
Sold three more necklaces and here is the email I got from the customer:

"Great--this is perfect because my next sister's birthday is in a couple of weeks. I'll send you a photo of the four of us in the necklaces. We LOVE em!!"

Feedback like that is always nice to hear!

So my count is now......165 to go???

Cold Cold day

I am an avid runner. I am not fast or particularly talented but I do like to run, far and often.

But today I realized I don't like to run i the cold-- brrrrr.
Being the spoiled southerner I am I have taken the day off.

There was a time when 30 degrees didn't sound cold.

let me tell you its freezing.

So today i wll catch up on emails, do some PR work and get to painting.

Its amazing that while I will get some business work done, I still can't seem to find the time to get any housework done...hmmmmm

Stay warm-- i'm off to pain some bright sunny flowers!
