Too Long Away

Its been to long since my last post - Sorry! Many things have happened good and bad, thats life I guess. I will start with the good, I survived my first Contemporary Craft Market (CCM) show with the help of my BFF Suzanne; don't know if I could of done it without her or that I wanted to. Lots of people came through and Roy Helms and Assoc. did a great job organizing and advertising. The sales where good, but not great, but as I talked to other vendors it seemed to be the theme of the weekend. Even so I applied for next June's show and was excepted YEAH!
I applied for Glitterfest and was excepted YEAH! YEAH! - I have heard so many great things about this show, that I can't wait to be part of it; October 15th at the Elk's Lodge in Santa Anna. Then I received information from the people at American Art Festivals, they saw my booth at the CCM show and invited me to apply for one of their shows so I thought what the heck and applied for the San Diego Holiday Art Festival and was excepted to the San Diego show, that will be held Dec 2,3,4 at the Del Mar Fairgrounds.
Now for the bad news - our 17 1/2 year old Jack Russell, yup I said 17 1/2 has lymphoma, we decided to go the route of chemo., she has had 2 treatments and seems to be responding well, not sure of the prognosis but we are happy to have her here now and give her lots of love.
So all that being said I'm keeping stiff upper lip and pushing on.
See ya later
