To Get You Caught Up

Hey everyone! There's been a lot going on lately so I thought it was time for a "catch up" post to help you remember it all if your interested :P

There is still plenty of time to buy into my hemp bracelet club! $55 gets you a bracelet in the mail each month for the next 6 months. Buy it for yourself, or buy it for someone you love! Either way your getting a great product, at a great price :) And did I mention you'll get a free gift with the first bracelet?

I have my on-going BNR up in the etsy treasuries again - and we've had 3 sales so far! I'm very excited for the three shops that have gotten sales - and the there's still plenty of time! The treasury will be up until Friday at 10:35 am, so come, shop, and buy YOUR place into the treasury! When you buy from one of these 12 lovely shops you get your spot in this treasury and any further BNR's I do, until YOU get your own sale! How awesome is that?

Don't forget to head on over to my One World One Heart blog entry to get your chance to win a pair of lovely earrings! I'll be giving away one pair of earrings ($5 value) for every 50 comments I get on that post, I have 47 as of this moment! Come get your chance to win :)

Want more chances to win? Every month I do a Top Commentators. I keep track of all the comments I receive and the top three commentators get gift certificates! And, just to make it fair, winners from the previous month are not eligible for the current month, so there's chances for everyone! New to my blog? That's alright! You can always do some back reading ;)

Here and Gone Again

No pictures in this post because blogger isn't behaving and I don't have time to fight with it today! I'm having a busy week, somehow all my doctors appointments for the month seemed to end up this week! So I spent the morning at the doctors office today getting my bi-weekly shot (fell asleep too!) then came home and instead of having a productive after noon... I fell asleep again! LOL The shot tends to make me sleepy but this was ridiculous! Oh well. The good news is I also came home find there had been two sales in my BNR treasury (including one for my shop, thanks Spirit Mama!)!!!!

I'm having a friend over to join me and Mo for dinner tonight - then going over to check out her apartment and have some girl time tonight. So I just did a few quick things in the shops this afternoon :) My Artfire shop now has a Clearance section! There are only two items in it right now (lol) but there will be more added in the days to come! I also added more to the clearance section in my etsy shop, so stop by there and see what's new!

Now I'm off to tidy up my apartment and make some hamburger stroganoff :) What should I listen too? I think I'm the mood for more Elvis...

Saturday's Goodness :)

I know I need to post up the next in my series on Time Management, but yesterday was too busy and today I'm just not feeling very good so it's hard to write intelligently.  LOL It should be up tomorrow though! Here's some quick updates on life in my business and world though :)

My Breast Cancer Awareness fund raising is over with as we have the dawning of the month! I only raised $11.40, but I'm going to raise it to an even $15 donation.

I'm starting a new fund raising effort for the next two months! I'm hoping that Christmas sales will mean this results in a much better donation :D Anyway, 10% of all my sales will be going to Open House Ministries. It's a homeless shelter in my home town that does some fantastic work in changing people's lives! I was privileged to work there for almost 2 years and I want to do something to support them now. To learn more go to www.sheltered.org  I plan on sharing some of my stories from my time there over the next two months, with names changed of course!

I have the newest edition of my BNR up in the forums right now! I didn't get a picture at opening, but here it is after the first two sales :) We're up to 3 sales for the round and 22 sales so far! Will you be the next to buy in?

I also found my self featured in this treasury - thank you storybeader!

I'm also on Twitter now, I have been for a few days, and i just wanted to give a shout-out and hello to all my new twitter friends! Look me up at: www.twitter.com/roseworksjewel And no, that's not a misspelling, it won't take my full name!

Oh! And one last thing before I go, I'm going to start a newsletter! It will be e-mail based, so either leave me your e-mail in a comment, sign up on the widget on the side bar, or send me an e-mail letting me know your interested at jedimarri@gmail.com

Have a great weekend all! And lots of sales to my etsy friends :)

Morning World!

Sadly, I didn't blog yesterday, but I'm not going to apologize for it! Why? Well, I had a rather busy day yesterday and my plan was to come home from running errands and blog then. Instead, I came home and my hubby and I watched a movie, and Chuck, and cuddled all evening! We needed that snuggle time so I don't feel guilty for abandoning the etsy/blogging/internet world for awhile!

My treasury closes just before 10, my time, this morning, and I'm pretty much figuring that there won't be any more sales in it at this point - so here's my closing picture of it!

I didn't get much crafting done yesterday. I spent maybe an hour weaving on a pink and brown bracelet that I hope to have finished and listed in the next day or two depending on how the rest of life is going. I'm also hoping to finally have the time to write my blog on time management :P Go check out this thread that I've started on the topic and give me your two cents! Who knows, YOU might make it into my next blog post!

Last, but not least, here's my newest creation that I posted up Sunday night:
