Over Do Did

Posted before about the desire to start my own cat card biz. It'll be named after a cat, who is the founder and CEC aka Chief Executive Cat. I already see these cards, stationary and maybe a t-shirt taking off. Yep, can see the success as plain as the car across the street.

Today I had the opportunity to launch it. A chum was peddling her jewelery line at a small craft fair. She said I could lay out a couple of cards. Nothing grand, just a few postcards I printed off with photos I'd snapped. I played with the effects and liked the end result. After the broo-ha-down in the toilet of finally figuring out how to get the printer to work--I did what I've done in the past--

I over did it. Yep. I worked two days on figuring out to MAKE the card, because my PC wasn't compatible with something. That's after I needed a new USB cable for the new printer. So once I got the printer down, I should have just done about a dozen. Just to see.

Naw, not me. I become an entrepreneur possessed. I do three different shots -one, I feel is a real 'money' shot. Total of 148 cards. Yep. So I head to where my chum was and I decided 4 for a $1. This was a small craft show--it was in a woman's house--so not as much traffic as I thought might be.

I got oohs and aahs. I even offered 4 to a lady and her daughter who had a cat--for free. She didn't take me up on it. Maybe she was mad that I didn't buy any of her daughter's homemade jewelry either.

Anyway, I soon left, because I was parked by a fire hydrant and I knew within a few minutes, this was not the right venue for me. A few postcards were left behind--just as a giveaway for my chum if she chose to. All in all, I did get reaction--which is what I wanted. I also know, I need a better, eye appealing product-like the type of card plus note cards I wanted to originally go with. All is possible. I AM an Aries.

I can so see the future, just like this kitty views from the window...

Yet, I sometime forget the 'get there' steps in the middle. Folks did like my photos. Made me feel good. So now I have 148 postcards in my possession. Can't wait to to figure who and where I mail them too...If you would like me to mail you one, send me an e-mail for snail mail.

Over did it. Yep.

However I'm glad I over did do it instead of not even doing at all.

Thursday and Almost

Friday.

Call me vain. I like my new profile photo. Always hated getting my picture snapped due to forever having a crooked mouth. That was due to being born with microtia (one ear) and missing some bone and such on the left side of my face. And then when I had the stroke that wasn't a stroke, right before I had the little open-heart surgery adventure-the side of my mouth drooped some. Still kinda does. Paranoid, at times, I am about it.

Then I see my profile pic. I look happy in this photo. As I am flat broke. 100 cats (well, not really). Wish for a new, and better house buying experience--or maybe I just want a clean house? Or a wish for a written and finished finished novel by ME. And a business to call my own. And to tickle a cute kitty's tummy. All good.

And in new profile photo I appear like I have all that and more.

Yep. Call me vain. I like it.

I am blessed.

Late and Barry Manilow

Rain falls
Should be in bed
Headed there
I am so tired
Thoughts of my own
Business still dance
In my head
Will it happen?
Do I show enough effort?
Sigh as I think of the empty
Side of my bed.
Sigh as I think of him--
Does he think of me as much?
Maybe Somewhere Down The Road
By Barry Manilow
The words say it all
Good night

Tuesday Turn

Tis interesting when someone you don't know too well and was OK either way if you didn't know em or not, turns out to a confident to continue the story. Discovered a co-worker and I share the thoughts to become business owners. We share the tiny steps, instead of the rejoice in the faith step we should take. Once again, proves you don't know until you know it!

For tonight, gotta admit TV has all my interest tonight. OK, sure I should mop the floor, do the dishes and yea, yea, yea.

Whatever.

More inclined to celebrate the fact I did not get one single bill in the mail today! I can put put stuff of dfor one more day! Heck, Denzel Washington isn't until the weekend! :)

Must get ready for American Idol and then immediately switch to Dancing with the Stars.

Curious what Adam, who I give props for his originality, will surprise us with toinght?While on DWTS Steve-O just HAS to G-O! Unfortunately, Steve can't jack ass his way outta this! Charm or no charm.

So let me at least check the cats' food and then pop myself some corn.

And remember He didn't bring me this far to leave me!

Stay tuned.
