Well...my play time is over! Some federal employees have been called back to work and I'm blessed to say, that I am one of them...although the devil on my left shoulder isn't as happy about that. You see, she wanted more time to stay at home and play with the beads. Be that as it may, we used our time in a most advantageous manner. I finished so many pieces, learned new stitches to incorporate in my creative process, and did some administrative stuff, like getting prepared to file my quarterly TX Sales and Use Tax, create business forms that I can use during craft shows (i.e. credit card authorization form, Resale Certificate form) and actually "pricing and labeling" by pieces and entering them into the square card library application. I also met a photographer who will take photos of my pieces for posting to my various sites.
So while the government has been shut down, Sweets Signatures has not! Now that I'm back to work, I'll have to schedule my time wisely as the need to bead is ever present!
Happy Beading!
I am very pleased for you Caron, no work = no pay = no beads :( I feel your pain at going back to work, but it sounds like you made good use of every single minute of your time, I was tired just reading what you had achieved :D
