Life is busy is ever right now. So much going on with qutting smoking and everything going on with Etsy. Quitting smoking has gotten me on a kick to quit everything and get all around healthier. Yeah this is good, but it keeps me very busy right now.
So what all am I doing right now? Well I am now 15 days cigarette free. The e-smoke is going really well. I have now already stepped down my nicotine level and am only having infrequent cravings, and those are all mental not physical. Seeing the success I have had with this has also motivated me to start the weining off process of my antidepressants also. That is a lot harder than the smoking ironically. The transition makes me feel really weird. Kinda dizzy and just a little off. But this is something I want to do so I am flowing with it.
The next thing I want to quit is my job. I need to for my mental health lol. I have way too many designs and projects in my head that dont have enough time to come out and it is starting to drive me a little crazy. I have decided to start focusing on designing purses and the number of different design ideas is absolutely crazy. I am working on a few different designs of cigar box purses, I have design ideas for can make purses out of like beer cans soda cans etc cetera, not to mention my recycles clothing items and such for purses also. I really want my Etsy shop to catch in and start selling so that I can quit my job because then I can add in more craft fairs and such and really get going on my art. So if you are so inclined please promote or talk up my Etsy shop everywhere! Lol Christmas is coming soon and I also do custom orders so let me know!
Speaking of Christmas, of course I am on a tight budget and have decided I am going to make most of my gifts. Luckly many of the people that are on my list to enjoy my handmade gifts or actually have asked for them. What this means that I am also very busy working on those projects as well as my shop projects. as of right now I have 7 people that I am working on handmade gifts for, I am about 1/8 of the way through the first one. Yes I am quite crazy.
On the child front, it has been decided that Kai will be staying with us for the school year. This is great for his education and social development I think, but obviously he is upset that he isn't going to live with his mom. I have been having some issues with him not listening and his being very upset if someone refers to me as his mom. I don't know how to help him adjust to this and help him get used to the idea of us being a family. Ezzy is doing well at school and has been doing great. The kids are getting along which is so much better. Well off I go again. So much to do. I have a huge list that I hope to accomplish by the end of the weekend and so thankful for a light work week because of changes in schedule so hopefully I can get it all accomplished! Wish me luck!
