If I find the time I can show of my stubble chart with movie poster images, (-8 Graphics just tie it together!
Oh yes that is actually a pretty fun one! (a Knight for Christmas) Pooka was just talking about how she liked it the other day, (-8 (..after watching a few more terribly formulaic ones... er some just terrible...)
We also saw The Christmas Carol Christmas which was... ok. It is terribly hard to capture the magic of such a timeless classic!
Have fun with your tree decorating! We've gotta head into the city for a thing tomorrow but I'm looking forward to seeing the decorations and maybe strolling through a festively done up mall, (-8

*falls over laughing at sorting by stubble!* Too funny!!! Have you seen a Knight for Christmas yet? Retta wants to watch that one. We're getting ready to put up our tree today. I watched that one a couple of years ago, and it was silly... in a fun way. I liked it. ^_^ We also saw The Christmas Carol Christmas which was... ok. It is terribly hard to capture the magic of such a timeless classic! I think you mean 'A Christmas Story Christmas'.'A Christmas Story' was my family's holiday movie that we watched every year, so I was really excited about this one, but it was... okay. But again, it's hard to capture the magic of the first one. (It's not very well known, but there was actually a previously existing sequel to that movie that takes place in the summer and is based around a craze for tops.) Also, as hubby was saying, we didn't mean to make anybody nervous from our silence for so long. Things have just been difficult lately, but are now looking up.... just hectic. Another note, I counted and have made around 30 templates over the last few days. O.o Some big and complex, some small and very easy... but yep, lots of templates. (That's counting some of the sets that have a few templates in them.) I 'think' that I may be done. There are a few more I may want to add, but I'll see what time I have. I have a dentist appointment on Friday afternoon, but so long as it doesn't interrupt too much (it's just a cleaning) we should be starting our event sometime later in the day on Friday. |

Ooo, I was curious about that too, are you selling your crafts and jewelry?
I received a call this morning that they're moving my dentist appointment to Monday. So I'll see how early we can start Friday (it still may be late in the day anyhow) and things will be interrupted Monday and Friday next week (cleaning, then cavity filling), but I think that's all for interruptions. ^_^ (I hope that I didn't just jinx it. O.o)
Also, I was at the doctor's yesterday and she said that it looks like I'm cancer free!! Yay!! The treatments worked! ^_^

I was going to ask the same thing wolfrysk, (-8 I'd love to see some pics of what you are working on MA! I used to go to lots of craft shows when I was a kid... my mom made everything and was sooo creative and she loved selling her stuff at markets and events. Everything from dolls to ornaments to stained glass and so much more, (-8
*watches Pooka get super excited about what she's been working on, just raring to go, and I've got some card's to address!*

Pooka that's awesome!!! Way to go!!! I've been watching some Holiday movies here and there. Polar Express, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, the 2018 Grinch, the animated Grinch and a few others. Christmas Story? Hoo boy...I grew out of that movie. I used to watch it, but I grew out of it and haven't watched it in about...wow...about 24 years XD It was okay at first and then I was just kinda meh about it. I've a friend who still watches it. I can't wait to see the festivities!! Hopefully i'm out of work on time XD We're decorating the store down at work. The one gm at the other store in town threw down a bit of a challenge on decorating and our gm the one day said that a challenge has been issued. He told me and I was like 'bring it on, you give me the goods and the time and I will decorate this store'. Oh yea...we're going good so far, but there's more to come. So far this: The stuff on the table was gotten by Mike, he let me set it all up, the ribbon on the wall though was something I brought in  The gnome home box, elf and snowman bucket  Tropical box and reindeer bucket  Stocking on the fireplace, which thankfully the frame doesn't get hot, so it's safe there:  The tree needed decorations, so I got the bell strands, the star, pinecone ornaments and the little round ones:  Garland under our menu boards up front, it's green and red and I hung an ornament from each loop. The garland was one that we had here at home and never used, so I brought it in for the store:  Another look at the garland with better light. The goofus in the picture is actually our assistant general manager Erin who had to photo bomb when she saw me getting pictures XD  And the tree. Our district manager brought it in along with the ornaments. Mike set it up, plugged it in and I put the ornaments on. The presents are actually empty boxes that I wrapped. The present idea was from another manager of ours and she got the wrapping paper. Mike let me wrap them.  Okay there is still more to come, but I have to wait til my next pay on Friday to get the other little items I want XD Yea, I have many ideas for the store and hopefully we can outdo the other store. I'm not going to go nuts and get inflatables for the store...those things are expensive...but I have a few more ideas that I want to bring to life. Like lights along the window sills, a few more snowflakes from the ceiling tiles, a poinsettia display and a couple other little things. And so help me if anyone messes anything up, I will flip >.> |

Ive actually been waiting on ETSY to clear up a hiccup in the shop making process. Ive been stuck since the end of November, got a response that was not the problem AT ALL, and now nothing ^^'
Im hoping they will finally get back to me but the balls in their court. Ill share pictures though, and I did start an instagram account...though there isnt much on it at the moment.
Anyway, busy busy!

Soooo, the 'little' Yule event is turning out to be bigger then expected. I templated a ton of things, and already pre-wrote up a bunch of long runners. Um, so yeah. Hopefully I'm not taking up too much packing time! lol

melodysangel I don't know much about Etsy, but that's too bad.  Maybe they're just overloaded with tickets due to so many people putting up things for the holidays? I have no clue if that's even a thing there. Operetta Oh, you ain't seen nothin' yet. That's just the first few out of a lot of templates.  Angel_of_Music Ooo, keep posting updates of your store decorating. ^_^

I'll be able to grab a couple more things on Friday and put them up on Saturday, but then I have to be careful with my funds >.> Also...love Peppermint, she's a cutie! |
