Although I'm not planning to do any shows in the near future, I will be working on a few new things for my Etsy shop. This new hardware came in today, as well as the new strap material. Wrist bands or shoulder straps? I haven't decided yet. I'll know it when I see it. I am tickled with the kittens, musical, and paw print zipper pulls, though. Makes me want to get back to sewing a little.
You can find me at the other store for one more day and then Friday and Saturday back where I usually work. I'll be glad for Saturday to be over so I can resume my stitching! I'm looking forward to putting my feet up, too. With a cup of tea. And lots of threads. And a little background music. Ahhhh, yes.
Sherry of createology: You manage to acquire the cutest findings for your sewing creations. These zipper pulls are just perfect!! I think of you during the day and pray your knees hold out. Enjoy your cuppa my friend.
ReplyDeleteDear Sherry:
DeleteThank you so much. These four hour work days are much easier on me than the six hour ones. The pace is easier, too. I stocked shelves when it was otherwise quiet, and took care of customers when they came through. To answer your question, I'm working at a gas station/convenience store/restaurant only three miles from home. I'm a cashier. I love getting out to see people, and have immensely enjoyed speaking Spanish with the folks who work at the nearby large dairy farms. The people who own the store where I work most days, own six others in the area, and when they're short on personnel, they ask for volunteers to fill shifts. The second store I go to is closer than three miles, and is in our small village (same as my address). It's a sleepy, little town during the day, and our store traffic reflects that. It's a little easier on my knee, too, as I don't have to go up and down stairs. Bonus!
I appreciate your concern, my friend.

Those zipper pulls are adorable.
ReplyDeleteWell there's a combination, feet, tea and thread with background music.
Sounds like a great plan.

Hi Shirley:
DeleteThanks, hon. I like that combination, too! I'm looking forward to it. I may even get an early start by stitching a bit today before my "dinner hour" shift.
Happy Weekend, again - already!
