Do you make lists?
NOTE: If you emailed and asked me to make you a set of Tanzanite Flight beads (a Picking from 2 weeks ago) please send me that email thread again...the beads are ready to ship to you - I just didn't write down who you are...!)
I am, by nature, a list maker...I like to write down my assignments and take great pleasure in marking them off. A line through, a checkmark next to, it doesn't matter as long as I can say "that's done, what's next"...
So I've been feeling a little lost with all the things I've been trying to do at the same time...and so I went back to my favorite list-making technique (why I didn't make a list previously, I dunno)...and so this week I have everything scheduled - when I'll be making eBay sets (and how many beads), when I'll be making Pickings, when I'll get some old orders completed (I procrastinate, yes) and when I have time to play at the torch. I don't have the hour-by-hour part scheduled, because I do need *some* flexibility, but at least I have a plan when I sit at the torch each day. I'm one of those weirdos who needs to know what I'm doing for the day so I don't feel like I'm wasting time...That little list has put my mind at ease and I feel ready to attack the week...
I've 'hired' Brian to run my shipping department - he's taking care of everything from packaging, printing the labels and sending the emails...look at me 'expanding' my operation...hardy har...I have 13 mailing tubes and packages going out in today's mail...you should see your goodies soon...
back later...how's your Monday going?

I'm a list maker and procrastinator too!!!! I feel lost or like I'm forgetting something if I don't have a list!

Donna,
I'm still wanting you to accept a "small" order from me! Will you consider??
If not, I'll e-mail you again in a few months. Since you're friends with Corina, I won't give up!
Thanks,
Vanda

i'm always taking requests, but not orders...everyone is welcome to send me an email with what they'd like, but I cannot commit to anyone for an order - I've already made committments that I need to honor...
if you're looking for beads that you are relying on for jewelry, I will have time to make beads in a few months...I'll definitely let everyone know when that is, of course...stay tuned to my site...
