But Seriously.....

No crocheting got done today as we had a picnic for Scott's work. Plenty of pattern organization to be done though. I'm looking forward to making a few amigurumi's which will go in my Etsy shop. I also have quite a few patterns and things I have posted under the name Meowcreations2011 on Ebay.  Right now that's selling more things than Etsy. Etsy is getting lots of lookers but noone is buying much.

I do have some stockings I'm putting up on Etsy for right now and there is a custom spot on there if anyone is interested in a certain color stocking (or more than one). I did have someone ask about my victorian ombre stocking but they were wanting more than one of them and I can't get the color anymore as it has been discontinued.

Been having a hard time getting anything done lately cause Scott has had some short weeks at work meaning he's been home a lot and even though I've been off between vacation i took and being sick, I just can't get anything done when he's home and some of the rest of the time I haven't felt like picking up in the house. I am, however, trying to use up some of the yarn I boughgt several lots of on Ebay. Like I needed more.

Wish me luck everyone on trying to get some done on the house and crochet. I have to go back to work this week which doesn't help in the time department. Have a great one everyone and keep warm if you're in one of those snowstorms!!

Plus, my afghan has a bid on Ebay!! Now if I can just get some more bids on it to up the price....

Cleaning out- from the inside out

Well the contract has expired on the house and the housekeeper quit a couple months ago. Needless to say the house is getting a big cleaning out and cleaning as soon as I get hubby back to work from a weekend off. I can't do squat with him around in the middle of the way. Only then can I relist the house for sale.

First to go: the closets so I can put more stuff in the closets LOL

Next to go: his hat collection if he doesn't put them up where they belong. (Notice no LOL here)

Next on the list: hire a new housekeeper if I can find one.

The keepers? All the crochet patterns to be organized and all the yarn to be put in the back bedroom closet.

Then wash the house down good.

But first go take my cough med before I cough myself silly (as if I haven't already had enough) LOL

Now go crochet something and get off the puter!!

Wednesday.... What's going on here? Plenty!

Hi all! It's Wednesday, my day off and finally a few things getting done around here.

Been helping a bit at my grandparents' cleaning out the basement- we don't even want to begin with all the junk there! Nothing really valuable- just stuff collected over 60 some odd years. A few little things will go on Ebay etc. but most of it just sentimental stuff and everyday junk.

Also keeping check on my Ebay and Etsy sites- I've been going thru some things and patterns both of mine and that I recently acquired and thinning out what I don't need. Keep a watch on Etsy (Meowcreations) and Ebay (Meowcreations2011) as there may be some good craft stuff and sales on there in the next little bit!! Lots of general craft stuff and knitting magazines and books and some crochet I can't use. Maybe even a little YARN I won't use up for sale once in a while.

About to go back to sorting some patterns and things and then getting ready for our usual Wed night dinner and shopping with a friend. As if I need to shop! Watch those Ebay and Etsy sites- lots will be popping up there in the near future esp crochet, knitting and crochet!

What am I crocheting? Nothing big lately just a few baby charity things- when I really need to be cleaning up and out my own place. Later all- back to sorting and Ebay. Trying to get a bid or two on some things to get out of here.

Saturday Afternoon

Hey all,

I'm feeling a bit better so back at the computer and crochet hook. I'm having to watch my grandmother for the afternoon so spending most of my time listing some things on Etsy and Ebay, watching an auction that's about to end- some people fighting over my Interweave Crochet Magazine- and working on a small baby blanket to be donated with the yarn I got from Pammy's giveaway. I got some lovely yarn bee baby yarn- I love that stuff.

Been working when able this week on going through craft stuff and patterns. Needed to be purging the house of all the other junk but haven't felt like doing any of that. Contract with Real estate has expired on the house and I have to figure out what to do with it- relist it or list it with someone else. It is in no shape to show right now that's for sure- needs a good cleaning out and carpets among other things need cleaning. Maybe in a few weeks when I get my vacation...

OK back to my auction and the baby blanket. Later all!!

Etsy and Ebay listings

Hi all-

This is a short post since I'm sick- battling infections in both ears, sinuses, throat and bronchitis for the last several days. Sorry so short and few between postings.

I have quite a few books and patterns I am listing on Etsy under meowcreations and have a new Ebay account under Meowcreations2011. These are needlework patterns and books from sewing and quilting to embroidery (hand and machine) to crochet to knit.

I do have many more than what's up there but have barely had energy to pick up a crochet hook much less catalog them online last few days. Please do take a look and see if there's any you are interested in.

I'll be back when I can clear some of this infection up- til then dont have much energy to play on puter.
