Wee Duke (My dog)

Hi to all! A note to all the animal lovers out there. Me wee dog Duke recently had an operation to remove a cancerous lump, it all went very well but I've noticed another lump (very stressfull), which will need looked at again by the vet. He's 13yrs old and has a very young look about him, he still run's about mad and has plenty of energy still for his age, so it is worth putting him throught the trauma of surgery. Am an optomist so I would want to give him the best chance possible. There's stil… Continue

Australia

My two sons have ventured off to Australia to visit thier dad. They are having lots of fun, but I miss them so much. I suppose I just have to get used to being on my own. I'm so used to being mum that for a couple of weeks I just didn't know what to do with myself.....on the jewellery side, I am not getting any sales. I dont't know is it has got anything to do with the recession but I am finding it difficult to get people to buy my products...so if anyone has any good tips or advice, it would be… Continue

From You:
"Hi there! Hope you are doing well. I make jewellery also and its always great to talk to and get advice from other artisans. How are things going and what is your most recent venture? I see u paint and draw also. Do you sell your paintings? What kind of jewellery most enspires you. So many questions. Do you make a living from your craft? Cheers, Karen."

My comments:
In the early stages of Creative Cafe I ended up with 2 profiles but this is the one I use consistently. One day the other will get taken down. (hint Jill) So, selling my paintings. I have only given them away but would love to sell them. Might inspire me to paint more. LOL My most recent venture has come to a halt since I moved into an apt with my kids. Still seeing my boyfriend of almost 5 years but separating our teens at the moment. Would love to get back into PMC work and make use of my kiln.
The jewelry I am inspired by is hand made - such as PMC, clay, glass - youi know pieces that are truly unique and that I might make myself. Tapping into my own creative goddess could be so fun.
No,I don't make a living at my craft - I guess then it would be a job, right? lol but I did make a couple grand last year. However, have to deduct expenses from that and most likely ended up even at the very least. Well, I can hope anyway - probally went over budget.
How are your boys? Still in Australia - and how do they like it? How are your jewelry sales going?
Summer might be a good time to hit the art markets and see if you can sell anything. Do you have "Saturday Markets" over there?

wishing you sunshine and laughter,
Rebecca

hi babe yeah i could get you a ticket, they're a 5iver each, still not sure how much the mini bus is gonna be, probably not much more than a 10enner, but that is just a guess just now, coz it's my mates who are running the bus. i'm working on a 'classic dance' double mix cd just now, kinda almost got the first one sorted, just to tweak the nipples, oops sorry tweak the sound a wee bit. on the night it's probably gonna be more a mish-mash of everything that i play. how's the wee doggy by the way?

hi babe! a wee update, the edinburgh thing seems to be getting better, the guy's on the level i'm sure, plus my friends the band year zero who are playing that night are putting on a mini bus to take people to and from the gig, so we're sorted, much cheaper than a hotel!!! by the way any chance you could pop your phone no in a private message to me on bebo or general email, just in case of internet fuck-ups or anything, plus it lets me take my stalking of you to another new level lol!

sorry still getting used to this site a wee bit! which particular rant was that? i've done several.... i'm just a greetin faced auld bastard these days... anyhow the ed thing... still not sure about it, it's supposed 2 b on sat 30th may, a guy i've got to know in ed is gonna b trying 2 promote bands & he's into me dj-ing as well, but not sure about it all yet, he gets a bit 'vague' when i try & ask him about stuff like money (will probably lose out of it first time, but hopefully long term can turn i into something, we'll see!), plus the fact that i want about 2 hrs to do a dj set, not just fill in between bands like a filler (can do that too but want a proper set), as i say we'll see!

yeah i have heard of it believe it or not! quite a bizarre song, have only heard it a couple of times so couldn't really tell u any lyrics from it, 1 of my mates has their/his(??) album and says it's great.

well hopefully he's ok! dog's are better than most people! and as for people not buying anything - tell me about it, i'm at my wit's end in that f*cking shop with cust-dumbers asking about ridiculous things with a kilt outfit hire... what sporran do i get? what flashes do i get? how much is it? oh i can get 1 cheaper than that, can we try 1 on? basically can i be a time wasting c*nt who wants to just waste half an hour of your precious time, until you eventually lose your patience and don't want to see me ever again??? oh and i'll do all this when you're up to your neck trying to get other work done! dj-ing.... going thru 2 see about a possibility in edinburgh of all places, hopefully will work out as the guy seems alright, hugz & give doggy a cuddle for me too x
