Finally posting again...

Dear Diary
I know I keep saying I'm going to start updating here more, but I've been sick a lot and not up to doing much. You would think that would mean I'd have more time to write, but I never know what to write about then. Ever since that trip back in December, I've just had one thing after another. I went to the doctor for a sinus infection last week, and they did tell me my lungs sounded clear, which is good. I'm still fighting a lot of tiredness, though, and having some days I barely feel up to getting out of bed. I guess the flu and bronchitis stuff I had really wiped me out.

But, something I have been up to... I decided to try something new and start selling things online. I opened an Etsy shop, and a shop with another site called ArtFire.

My Etsy shop
My ArtFire shop

I've put up some jewelry on Etsy, and some of my photos on both. I'm trying to decide how much to put into all this, because I don't know if any of it will sell or not. It's something I'd love to do, but I also don't want to stay broke because I put all my money into it. So, we'll see. It's fun, anyway.

We've been going to a "new" church the last couple of months, though I haven't been able to go much since I've been sick so much. I say "new" because we went there a bit several years ago. Anyway, we're wanting to join the church, and Saturday night, we ate dinner with one of the elders and his wife. They have four Clydesdale horses, so I had fun taking pictures. :D I plan on uploading them to Facebook soon, then I'll post the link here. They have some quarter horses at out a different farm as well, and said we can go riding soon. I'm looking forward to that.

Yay! You're back! :-)

I do hope you feel better....I also hope you do well on your Etsy and ArtFire sales.

So, are you going to start selling books as well at some point? :-)

And horses are good. :-) (Not that I've actually ever seen one, other than at a distance, but still...)

Good luck with Etsy! I've sold one thing, I think, out of the 20-odd things I listed... not counting one of my LJ friends buying a couple things. I've thought about trying some photography to see if it would sell, but haven't yet. :-D

Still, it DOES seem like some people have success with it. It might just take a while.

I am so sorry you've been so sick! I can't afford to buy anything but your shops look great!
