With CHA right around the corner, I've been a bit buried lately. There have been some long days and even longer nights. I've completed dozens of pages, a load of projects, a handful of cards, and I've even written an article and developed a class in the last 30 days.
Yesterday I boxed up a majority of the Making Memories projects and shipped them off. This box represents hours and hours of work, and I'm so happy to ship it away. ahhhhh...relief.
You know, even with the crazy hours and extra stress I've had over the last little while, I can still honestly say I love my work. I'm grateful to be able to work at home. And I'm especially grateful for a nice long deep sleep last night. (okay, I really got woken up about 4 times from various children..but that's okay, I'm grateful I was sleeping so I could be woken up, lol.)
Now I'm waiting for some more new product to arrive and I'm ready to work on a few more things, tie up some loose ends...and next week, maybe I will get my home and life back to "normal" (whatever normal is).
Of course, it hasn't been ALL work. There's been a bit of play as well. We've been bowling, playing in the snow, celebrating birthdays, and more. Eventually, I'll get my blog caught up with photos, a holiday recap, and a report of the first week of the new year...
i love this photo wendy! love that you took a photo of the fedex slip. i have to do this too ... is it ok to copy your idea?!?! lol! i was actually going to take a photo of all my stuff boxed up yesterday ... but i forgot. i know how busy you've been ... and how much you've been creating! and i agree ... it can be stressful at times. but it's also such a great job to have ... and i know we're both so lucky to have it!
ReplyDeleteGood for you! I haven't ever had to deal with the stress of CHA, but I am sure your projects are beautiful! Hopefully you'll be able to share some on your blog :)
ReplyDeleteSorry for the stress but now you can fell the joy of a job well done! Love the label idea.
ReplyDeleteI am jealous! Another week of frantic tradeshow prep here before I can sit back, and sigh with relief. I loved seeing Jenny's name on the label. Brings back fond memories. Can't wait to see MM's new product and what lovely things you did with it. :)
ReplyDeleteCute picture! I'm sure your projects are all Fabulous! Good luck getting the rest of it done - i'm just barely getting started! Ack!
ReplyDeleteFun to have some must do projects to keep you moving after the Holidays. Can't wait to see your projects, when you can share.
ReplyDeleteAlso can't wait for your recap post!
You've been busy! Brad even mentioned how busy you've been. Seems like now would be a good time for a night out! Let me know if we can do lunch or something!
ReplyDeleteOh I bet your stuff is just AWESOME Wendy!

ReplyDeleteYOu need to call me and say, "Lori, come get my kids, I need a nap!" I would be happy to take them anytime, my kids would be thrilled for someone to play with!
