Procrastinatio-......

With a wholesale show coming up in less than two weeks, and a stream of wonderful weekends at the market that have depleted my stock of jewels, I find myself on Monday morning doing exactly what I always do when I'm overwhelmed with the length of my To-Do List. I start cleaning. I crank the music on my computer and start organizing things that I didn't know existed; I go grocery shopping; I lock myself in the bathroom and pluck my eyebrows; I write emails. Suddenly I live in a neat and tidy apartment, my cupboards are stocked with meals, there's kombucha in the fridge, and yet... no glass is made, no pens have declared progress to the items on my project list.

Why don't we do the things that we know need to be done?

The new tree necklaces are still consistently selling, which makes me incredibly happy. AND a suprising thing happened this morning: I thought of a COMPLETELY new design for a necklace. Truly I'd thought I'd have a hard time coming up with a design that would trump the trees, and maybe this one won't - but maybe it will! Either way, it's going to take several firings, lots of glass powders, and will involve some techniques that I've never attempted. Nevertheless, I'm entirely excited.

Here's hoping for a productive and happy week!
