  • Virtual Reality

    I am glad to be able to talk via xanga because I won't be inviting guests over any time soon. In every open space of my house are mounted piles of pending projects, totally an eye sore to onlookers. Let's just say it has been a very active week at the Cates Estate. Since Wed, I went to a business meeting, I uploaded more products on my etsy shop, I made business flyers and hung some up. I am preparing for a scrapbook day on Sat and I am planning on selling my own pre-made scrapbook pages. I am also making crafts for a craft show in 2 weeks. I am still studying for college and am teaching Jocelyn to read all along with my domestic duties. I love to do all of these except for the domestic chores so it is fun for me. However, my work is in vain if I can't interest anybody with my products and skills. So you keep on looking and I will keep on hooking. I am not a very good sales person but I did learn a few tips from Olan Mills, Okay maybe one tip. If the customer has $40 to spend they have $45.00 How profound?

  • My Shop Announcement

    Hi Everyone, I just wanted to make an announcement that I just opened a shop on etsy. I am selling pre-made scrapbook pages and party game supplies and products that I made. Give me till the end of the week to upload more products for sale. You can find me at thriftartist.etsy.com. I am also simultaneously working on developing my website, Creative Playhouse, but I won't have it published for awhile yet. My products would make great Christmas gifts so be sure to check them out and tell everyone you know.

  • I Got The Job!

    I just found out today that I was hired and start tomorrow at Olan Mills taking pictures for the Christmas season. I wish I had more time to get ready. After not working for 6 years then all of the sudden to be thrusts into a dizzy of conflicting schedules, lunches, and babysitters I wish I had a few more extra hours to get ready. I will have to be more efficient and prioritize so I probably won't be updating to often. Sorry friends YOU DON"T PAY MY BILLS!!! so you don't get first place.

  • I just applied to Olan Mills to be a studio photographer. If I get hired I will start in a week. I am so excited. It has been a long time since I had a traditional job but it will sure be nice to have my own money again. I love taking pictures. I am very thankful to be able to have a job that I love.
