Sorry for the silence. I was doing pretty well listing regular gawks. Then I forgot one Sunday, had intended to make a “Thanksgiving Gawks,” but Sal and I had traveled to CT for the holiday. But now I’m back. I’ll be posting the gawks later today.

A few words first on plans. I feel a bit distracted. I feel pulled in many directions; laziness, creativity, science and I feel like it may come to a head. I’m working on becoming more organized because I feel like that will help with crafting. Sal and I are still playing quite a lot of Skyrim (cause it’s fun) and that takes a solid chunk of time, particularly as I have to keep restarting my character (which has been frustrating). I’m still working on ideas for Kindle Cases, I think I’m just scared of destroying my “good” fabric and while Muslin mock-ups are great for most things, I feel like I need a tangible feeling to work with actual construction of “harder” concepts.

The blog-o-sphere has been fascinating lately. I had originally been thinking to launch a lot of product prior to Christmas, but it’s too late. So now I think I’ll get organized and if I’m ready, I’ll launch items in the store for the new year (as I have vacation the last week of December).

We shall see.

So, now that the site looks… moderately acceptable (appropriate header incoming eventually), it’s time to review some goals! Because, goals are good.

Things I want to make for myself;

• Ruffle handbag
• Many pockets handbag
• Hardcover kindle case (made out of a repurposed hardcover book)
• Softcover protective kindle case for traveling

Things I want to make/list in my esty shop;

• Potentially more kindle cases if I’m any good at making them
• The jewelry I made ages ago and never listed
• My new jewelry components (handmade by me)
• New jewelry from said components
• New stuff!

Yes, goals. I’ll probably make the things for me first LOL. But that’s ok. As long as I make…

I hope to re-discover my camera soon and start listing pictures.
