I am so lucky this month that the first Monday of the month is on the 6th, buying me almost a whole extra week to prepare!

OK...I'm whining...its soooo hot out..and humid, ugh. All I want to do is sit in the bedroom where I have ac, but alas, as noted yesterday, the down time is slipping away and I have a lot to do. I went my moms today to swim and try to escape the heat for an hour or so, but the second I got out of the water I was all sorts of hot again...but it was a nice way to spend the afternoon.
I am trying to work on new samples for my favorite as its so humid I cannot get the resin to set properly, I figured now was the time to evolve a bit. I'm getting deja vu, I think I may have shared this already...
I also finalized the design for custom necklaces I am doing for a bridal party, so I need to make the other two of those, oh and some earrings...
Which reminds me that I never mailed that wholesale order out this afternoon, but I did get a chance to meet with my sisters friend and give her the custom necklace I made for her last night. Look at me go!

Every time I have a bit of down (read: slow) time with Manic Trout or at the restaurant I tell myself to take advantage of it and get ahead...so I have had two weeks of steady slowness and even though I did catch up on some reading and did some very much needed bonding with friends, I did not prepare for the busy time ahead. My head was spinning with how much I had going on today, and all I could think was...well, other then I cannot wait to quit my day job, was...was I could have done some of this last week when I had so little to do! Ah, live and learn, or just realize that no matter what I know I should do, I am motivated by pressure and stress and completely loose all motivation when times are slow and busy I am not.
