Things have been pretty good with my hubby and I lately. When I have to clean off the stove and it's a filthy mess from him not cleaning up behind himself, I dream of living alone but right now we're doing much better. For so much of last year I just wanted him gone. I could take the messy house and as I wasn't home much, it certainly wasn't me making the mess. Right now things aren't too bad cause we cleaned thoroughly before putting up Christmas decorations and we had a New Year's Eve party so we had to make sure the house was clean for that. I've decided that I'm going to have to have a party more frequently throughout the year so that the place stays clean.

I wish that work was going so well. We have so many behavioral patients right now that it is all I can do to make myself go to work. The stress level is so high because they push the limits so much. It's worse than raising teenagers because they can be punished. These people are adults and should know better but have learned to deal with people in a manipulative way. I just keep reminding myself that I love my house and that is why I'm working this much. I wish my ebay sales would bring in enough that I wouldn't have to put in so many hours at the hospital. Hopefully down the road they will.

When I got home from work the other night a lady had bought both of my collections of six hardanger kits. I didn't have that many made up so I had to put together most of them. I hadn't realized that the assembled kits were getting so low. It was cool to have them sell, though. I have to mail them tomorrow. I couldn't get them all assembled before the post office closed on Saturday. It's just a little thing really but I get so excited when there's a sale like that. I really hope that the people buying them are really enjoying them and happy with their purchases. Since they are my designs, it's so important that people like them. I put a new design on their on Thursday and on Friday morning it already had a bid on it. So cool!

I have some of my photos on display at a local eatery here. It really wouldn't break my heart if some of them sold. I haven't had good luck selling my photos. I think I need to start framing them myself so that I don't have to charge so much. Don't really have the room to put that set up to do that. It's so weird how things all tie together. Didn't do very well at the craft fair at the dome but that's where I made the connection to show my pictures at the eartery. The more people see my photos and my name, the more they will think of me if they need something for the wall. Maybe I should make a hardanger to put in a frame and display it. Maybe for another time.
