Sunday evening and "Idle Hands"

One of the "most" oh so exciting things that have happened lately has been my sciatica acting up because of sitting wrong on the couch. Pinching a nerve that runs down the left leg has encouraged the want of a Charlie horse. Something thing that I am familiar with in my calves but I do not necessarily want them in my thigh. I have two weeks left until the first month of healing has happened. Putting weight on my foot sends shocks of pain at the ankle. So I am going to wait until the doctor gives me the go ahead.... with the next x-ray.

I have finally come up with a name of a company to do business under: "Idle Hands." Following the old saying that "idles hands are the devil's playground," in other words, keep busy.

Something that I have learned quite a bit of while I have been healing. I could have been doing so much more with my hands. I have just been sitting on my ass. So in the pass couple of days, I have been looking for projects to do to sell. I need to make some money to fill the coffers. My coffers are getting lower and lower. I don't trust my roommate every time I send her out with my credit card. She always seems to lose the receipt, or comes home with two. What she forgets is that I see the bank statement. She spends more than she says.

So anyway, I think that this is my opportunity to come up with ideas for the "boss" so that we can make some money. I have seen a few ideas that I believe that I can reproduce. There is also going to the library to find additional books with patterns. There is a book in the local library, that I hope to check out and grab some ideas from it as well. I am starting to look through the books I have to find any ideas from them. I should start putting the books up for sale to get rid of the excess that I have. I need to start getting photos of everything that I have here ready for sale in July for the Christmas "rush". I just need to remember no international send outs, unless they pay for the shipping.

Well anyway this is the plan....

And soon this blog will turn into a combination of postings of stories, for sale items and brief rants.
