Reactive Glass

Portland resumes its gorgeous weather after a little chunk of daily raining - phew! And I'm pretty excited because I went to look at a basement apartment in a friend's house yesterday and I'm already decorating the place in my mind. It's going to be the new Sunup Lounge with plenty of space for creating!

But this is typical me: get an idea in your head and then jump on it prematurely. I only just saw the place yesterday and already I've got my heart set on it. Feeling desperate for more living/working space can make you become pretty .. impulsive.

This past weekend was the first trial of our new location on the waterfront park for the Saturday market. I ended up in the 'Dead Zone' for Saturday, which kind of ruined my weekend... and no, I did not do a good job of keeping my chin up and brushing off one bad day; I gave in to it and panicked. However, I just looked at the calendar and was reminded that May has 5 weekends, so maybe my end-of-the-month finances will turn out okay after all. Not having a guaranteed paycheck can be so stressful sometimes.



I FINALLY made some earrings yesterday that people have been requesting for months. I have some pendants and rings in this particular color combination and they always do pretty well, so I managed to persuade myself to create some earrings in this same style. I have to say that they came out really well and I'm excited to see the reaction they get at the market.
