Etsy Store & Such

I just opened an etsy store to sell some of my handmade items. I plan to add more stock in the future, including crochet cat toys.

You can visit my store through the link at the right of my blog.

If you have any recommendations or comments about my store or items, please feel free to let me know!

I am still healing from surgery. I can sit up a little in the day but it amazes me how fast I get tired after being in the bed so many weeks after these past few surgeries.

This weekend I went out and enjoyed the weather and had so much fun but I laid down upon returning home and crashed immediately and slept until late evening. I could not believe how tired I got. When I woke up from my nap, my face, neck, hands and arms had big red itchy spots/whelps. I am having major allergy issues and don't know for sure what is causing the rash. I took a benadryl and it helped the itching.

I also went to my Aunt's house and saw her flowers (after the benadryl) that she had planted in her yard. I threatened to steal some of her snowballs from her bush for a flower arrangement but I did not because it was dark by the time I left. They were very pretty with big white blooms. I saw a frog in my Aunt's grass and I could not remember when the last time was that I had seen a frog just hopping around.

That reminds me that I need to replant some of my succulents that have seeding and started new shoots.

My husband is in Austin, Texas now. I miss him but am hoping things work out well there.

I am just trying to make myself stay in bed until everything heals and then I can go full force again.

I hope you have a good week.
Enjoy the Spring!

HAD A FROG JUMP OUT OF THE WATER BOWL ON THE BACK PORCH... SCARED ME TO DEATH... WASN'T EXPECTING IT, LOL. THOMAS PICKS ON ME BECAUSE WHEN WE WOULD STAY ON THE PHONE ALL NIGHT, I HAD HUGE BULL FROGS SERENADING ME FROM THE LAKE IN MY BACK YARD. I THREATENED TO BRING THEM TO TEXAS WITH ME.

CONGRATS ON GETTING YOUR STORE BACK UP AND RUNNING... I'M SURE YOU WILL DO WELL!

BEST WISHES TO YOU AND YOUR HONEY. I KNOW IT IS DIFFICULT, BUT WILL BE WORTH IT IN THE LATTER.

BIG HUGS,
TERESA

Hey Michelle!
Your store is looking good! I like the flowers :)
I hope you feel better soon. I know benadryl works for me!

Your shop looks great!
I did not have too much trouble setting up the analytics for my shop, I just followed the instructions they gave, and I am a very low-tech kind of person. It is fun to see how many visitors your shop gets and where they come from.
I think it also helps to join a group of people who do work such as yours; I joined the Etsy Thread Artist Team and I have met many wonderful people through them.
Good luck!
Ann
