needing laziness
i want to do as little as possible today. i want to sit at my computer. i want to take a nap. i want to soak in a cool bath. there is very little that would make me want to be active today. i'm hoping this isn't a sign that i'm getting sick.
we got our logo stamp. it works famously. now i need to spread out all our bags & stamp them. that, of course, requires activity ... so i'm updating my blog instead.
i picked up the fabric today for our table clothes. some brown, some green. i'm not sure yet how i'm going to put them together ... but i think i can kick those out one evening after work, so i'm not concerned with them today.
i got something else for the booth this week, too. but it's a surprise for april ... so of course i can't tell you about it yet. aren't you glad i brought it up?
i need to make t-shirts for the us to wear. i don't have the t-shirts yet. i was going to stop at walmart today, but i just couldn't take walmart on a saturday afternoon. walmart is crazy anyway ... but a saturday afternoon? no thanks. i'll make a run there during lunch one day this week. surely it'll be less crazy then.
the popcorn festival is less than a week away. one week from today we will be a mere three hours from closing the booth. i'm not freaked out by this. not yet at least. i'm excited, though it seems more surreal than anything else. putting one's self out there isn't an easy thing to do. i must continue to remind myself that not everyone will like our stuff. a lot of people will probably walk through without buying anything. i've never been known for dealing well with not being good enough. we'll see if i can separate people judging my work from people judging me. perhaps i really just need to decide that i don't care. regardless, this could be a very interesting experience for me.
i'm adding some sites to the recommended list. obviously i think you should visit them.

Your booth is going to be fabulous! i can't wait to see all your goodies.
And yes, there will be some who just 'window shop' but you don't have time to care about them (make that your mantra for the day). Just focus on all the people who DO stop and BUY! I'll be one of the many. :o)
i miss you.
I think it is going to be great too! I tend to be a look but don't buy kind of person, I usually love a lot of the stuff I just don't have the money for it. So if people don't buy it is just because they don't have the money for it, not that it doesn't take their breath away! Your stuff is great! Jody, do you want to car pool? I want to take the whole family to the fest, but if that doesn't fly I don't want to go alone.
ps. I'm glad you made it back to blogger! Now, go take that bath! (And some vitamin C just incase you are getting sick!)
It's great that you are putting yourself out there! Everything I've ever seen you make has been beautiful! Whatever energy you put out there will come back to you, so if do not want to be judged, than do not judge others. (advice I need to take myself) The only thing I ever buy at craft fairs is earrings so I am planning on that!
