May 21, 2024 … moving in…

Today, we started setting up the chalet and moving in. Though it’s fun proving I M right to my husband and he us wrong, I would have been very happy to be wrong this time. He thought we could fit three 6 foot tables in the chalet, and we could only fit one and one 4 foot table. Plus, a couple of small shelves.

Oh well, it’s a start. We will make it work. Then we will slowly redo it and make it look better. Who knows, maybe by the time it closes in December, it will be perfect. Lol

Besides that, I worked on the money for royal stagg and niles ren faires. We did way better combined than I thought we did. Now I just need to update the inventory and make more fur ear and a few more smaller tails. What an odd statement. Aahhh, the life of a crafter. Lol, that is a tomorrow thing, along with starting the chalet product set up.

Have a great night all. Sweetest of dreams. My hubby has offered me a wonderful night. Yay!!! Night all! Kitt ☺️

May 2, 2024 … tails anyone…

I finally got some of my tails, mostly sown. I say mostly because I still have to stuff them and sew the tops. Sadly, I had to use my small kid sized machine because my big one was annoying. I will figure it out tomorrow. today, I just wanted to throw it.

Ant and I did go through the eggs, and we separated what we were bringing to the first faire. That made two, maybe 3 boxes not going. And since one was a big tot, it’s great! Things will fit so much better.

Besides that, the sleeping pill made me so tired that I slept till 630 am. That is wonderful! Now I am going to bed. I just want more sleep. Lol Night night everyone. Have the best dreams you can!! Kitt ☺️

April 5, 2024 … Busy… yet Not…

Here is the thing…

I felt bust most of the day, yet I don’t feel like I did much of anything…

I finished painting the scales for the new Ying yang dragon egg my son needs to make. I will hopefully have pictures in the next couple of days.

I figured out how to make my fur wrist cuffs close and be comfy.

I finished some paperwork and separated out my receipts. This way, tomorrow, I can input all of them.

All of that was time-consuming. So it did take a while to do it all. It just didn’t feel like I did much of anything. Another way perception gets us.

All and all, a good day, though. Tomorrow I have work 😫. I hope it goes well. For now, I am going to bed. Good night, sweet dreams, and big hugs to those who need it! Kitt ☺️

January 6, 2024

My cohort at work, the guy who does my job when I am not there, used to be a detective. He has been retired for around 8 years or so. He has to go to court on Monday for a case he had over 10 years ago. He literally told me he doesn’t even remember the name of the guy.

I understand everyone is entitled (a word I truly dislike at times) to due process. But appeal after appeal. And if the arresting officer can’t remember the plantifs name, how are they getting true justice or the appeal getting its honest due. Sure, he gets to review his notes, but that isn’t much ultimately. I don’t know. Sometimes, I just think it’s a bit too much at times.

But maybe I feel this way because no one in my family is in this predicament. And yes, I know innocent people get locked away all the time. But when my cohort tells me about having to go to court and how stupid it is all these years later, I tend to agree with him.

Okay, that was my rant… lol 😆

Today, I got the backing for my son’s blanket. I am making him. I was hoping to have it done by Christmas, but it didn’t happen. Hubby and I learned we need more help. So we showed him what I had done, and he offered to help. Then, to top off, not finishing his blanket, when we went to set the backing, I realized I cut it wrong, so we had to get more. Hence, why we were getting backing again. Funnily enough, my kid could have picked anything. And I knew my son so well that he picked the exact same material I originally got him. Damn I am good. LOL, so hopefully, on Tuesday, we will finish sewing it for him. Wish us luck.

Okay, my eyes just closed, and I started falling asleep. I am going to rake that as a hint to go night night now. Hope you had some fun smiles. Night all!!! Kitt ☺️

Working beyond the normal….

I have a regular job. I have to be there by 445am. I happen to love my job. I get to count money all day that I am there. And best of all, I am not a cashier, I work in a back-office. (nothing against cashiers, I would just smack some of the people I have seen come into our store.) So my job is great. I don’t even mind getting up so early since I don’t sleep well anyways. But that is not my only job….

How cute is he… Lol

My family has a side hustle of crafting many different things. (Another post shows the hands we make) and I have to say, I wish that was my main gig and I worked for extra money.

Lately I have been making fur tails and ears, plus clay horns. Well, I became slightly obsessed and made way more than I thought.

Tails and keychain tails. Lol

Not complaining, I love them and now I have them to sell. It is actually quite exciting to me to know that when we start the different types of fairs and markets again I have a great supply.

What about you? Do you work for someone else, yourself, both? Honestly, I love my job, I don’t see myself quitting, lessening my days sure, quitting nope. Kitt 🦝🦊
