But, I didn't forget you! I'm back to stay so - BE WARNED!!
With ataxia you only have so much energy and have to decide where your priorities lie.
Of course that is and always will be with my family. My husband has not been working and with retirement age creeping up on him, he has decided to apply for his pension. He's looking for a small part-time job to give him something to do and to keep peace between us! He is driving me friggin nuts!! LOL. Although it is nice to have him do the laundry or make dinner. :)
Of course our adorable grandson is growing and is now 9 months old. I've never seen such a happy, determined little guy. And he's full of energy - goes from morning to night - with hardly a nap! What baby does that!! LOL - glad those days are over and I'm happy to be his Grandma.
I have also been busy with The BC Ataxia Society. I've been the volunteer President off and mostly on for 12 years now and it's time for new blood. Unfortunately there are no takers so I have to decide what to do before our AGM in June.
I also have been busy making items for my Etsy shop - SapphireNoteables. Wow, I never realized how much work an Etsy shop involved. I just thought that you made stuff, posted it and hoped to sell it - like Craigslist! But geez, was I in for a surprise!
It's like running a store - which I guess it is! Duh!!
There's the overall appearance (banner, titles,branding), store policies, shipping and packaging, photography, descriptions, tags, search engines, pricing, teams, circles, treasuries, making inventory (a chore in itself), facebook pages, blog ...phew. It's been 3 months and it's still confusing but not nearly as overwhelming.
Oh yeah, then my desktop got sick so I switched everything onto my laptop which I'm not overly fond of. It's too touchy for these ataxic hands so forgive me if spellcheck misses something or I'm missing an 'f'' - the 'f' key sticks!
So there you have it - my excuse for not being here.
I'm going to share with you this week some of the projects that I have been working on for my shop.
Please check back often and I promise that I'll be here!
