Keepin It Real and The One That Got Away

So The C Note show went well. I sold 2 pieces. Wahoo!! Not 2 that were in the actual show, but 2 that were hanging in the studio that a few of The Mother Artists share. A little pocket change at just the right time of year!!  Now about the one that got away……Just look at this little guy!!!

My friend Sharon H Bell sold this new and improved doll early Friday night. But so many more people smiled when they saw him and/or showed disappointment when they saw his sold sign.  I was certainly not the only one that wished they had bought him. Sharon promises she will be making more of these Children Of The Black Flag.

Dawn and Abby came, complete with dinner and wine, to hang out for the evening. After a few glasses of wine we were once again sharing ridiculous stories from our past and talking about blogging.  Often after Abby’s hilarious stories, Dawn and I will say in unison, “You should so Blog that!”

I often feel that if I don’t have a craft or activity to blog about, then I have nothing to say. But,  I’ll try to work on that. We also discussed how being truthful and keeping your posts real made for a better blog. Not just telling the good stuff, but including the day to day crap too.    So, we all choose the best of each others real life stories from our sorted pasts to blog about today. Not the ones that make us look good but the ones that show the true sides of ourselves-even though they were in our wild and crazy past.

Hmm, I notice neither of them blogged their silly stories…. YES!! guess that gets me off the hook too!! Thank goodness. They probably aren’t as interesting when your sober anyways!

Tomorrow-another craft.
