Today... July 4th...It's been a while!

Wow! I hadn't realized how long it has been since I've actually used this blog. 2010!! I will definitely try to post more now that I have a little more time on my hands.
Since I last posted I've taken on a second job. A second job?! Yes! Last October I was looking for ways to make some extra Christmas money. I would go shopping and see who was hiring, but never really made an effort to apply anywhere. While shopping at Michael's one morning I ran into an old co-worker who currently worked there! She asked how I was doing and I mentioned my search for extra money. She told me they were hiring and would put in a good word. As fate would have it her manager walked by just then and I got an introduction. I was hired two days later!! What was to be only a Christmas job has turned out to be a second job eight months later. I love the people I work with and my creative juices have been n constant flow!!
Working at a craft store has opened my eyes to so many new things. My latest guilty pleasure has become jewelry making! I am just starting out, but what I've made so far has been awesome! Not to toot my own horn or anything.... ok TOOT TOOT! I love the idea of being able to make jewelry that I like, jewelry that fits MY style.
So here's to free time and being creative!!
