Big News

At least I think it's big news, kind of scary and very exciting. Today is the first day of my new 4 day work week. My regular extra day off will be Monday, I hope it's going to free up alot of creative time for me as well as time to take better care of myself and do things I never have time to do any more. I've got to work even harder to make sure I provide lots of wonderful goodies that people like so I can make it work. After nearly 12 years in this job, 40 hours a week, it feels like a big step to cut my hours even by 1 day.

So today, I hope to list lots of goodies I've had stacked up over the last couple of weeks. Plus the batch I fired last night. My first listing on my brand new day off are these lovely leaves, I've had them made for quite some time and decided this was a good time to share them!

Don't forget about the Bead Soup Blog Hop Party, I'm still working through the list myself. My goal is to do about 40-50 per day so it's gonna take awhile. I'll have a BSBP 2011 Page/Tab at the top of my blog for at least the next couple of months so if you loose track of the list it's there for you.

  4. Good luck! I don't have a "day job" but am so busy most of the days I still can't accomplish much. If you can make a schedule and stick with it, you'll do GREAT!

  5. Great news on the day off from the 'day job' - it'll work out fine and you'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner! :)
