A typical day in a life of a crafter 10/25/13

Good Morning, Friday! It may sound a lot like a frantic, crazy post. But my brain is in overdrive. Holy cow, I got so much to do, so little time! OK, So, I got my regular job today, tonight, need to get some orders started. In craft fair world, tomorrow, I'll be in Rockville Centre (at the train station), tomorrow night, get warm and crochet. Sunday, we are going to the Statue of Liberty, have a nice lunch, come home to get warm again and crochet, again. From Monday-on till November 22, I'll be working on my Holiday Fair items. Lot's for home décor, such as tree skirts done in my favorite pattern, Granny Squares and Hexegons. This way I'll have enough for any last-minute shows in December, as well as custom orders on Etsy.

Like I said, it's CRAZY at the moment. Tonight though, I will have a glass of wine. Probably fire up the woodstove, and get ready for tomorrow, and sit and stitch for a bit.

Tomorrow, I will get up early with hubby. Finish packing the truck, bundle up, drink some airborne, hot tea, etc. Spend the day in RVC, hopefully see some of my friends who live close-by. Come home, unpack, warm up again, dinner, SLEEP.

Sunday, Steve and I are heading to the city to see and climb up to the crown of the Statue of Liberty. This will be Steve's first, and is on his bucket list. This is my third time (not bragging, really!)
Thank goodness it's early enough that we'll stop to have lunch before heading home to warm up again, and go through my work room.

Mondays to Fridays, I have a real job as a school bus driver, but will be fitting in quality stitching time.

Next Saturday, we're going on a road trip to PA. Once again to catch colors changing, trains, and stitching. Yep, while waiting for the trains, I'll be stitching. Sunday I got the whole day to still plug along on my mounting orders, and get ready for the Holiday Showcase on November 24th. This will be a first, indoor, and BIG. Can't wait!

OK, so now I need to go and write a check to Showtiques, and clean up to get going back up to Bayville to work my afternoon shift. WEEEEE!!!!

Oh, on top of all this chaos, teaching courses on craft fairs, and everything crochet.....
