It’s been a while…
1. I’ve never worked so hard in my life.
2. The shop is equal parts inspiration and vigor + responsibility and burden.
3. Don’t get me wrong, I love it–we’re just working, y’all!
4. I’m on a painting frenzy–mixing colors and splattering my kids as I go.
5. They sort of like it.
6. I’m officially addicted to Greek Blue again.
7. Our online launch went so well–we’re beat and tired and happy and elated and moving on to the next phase.
8. Marketing online.
9. Do I ever stop?
10. I am unfortunately noticing my driven nature peeking its ugly head around 3 or 4 in the morning these days.
11. Bathroom trip or a bad dream, and I’m all, “Oh, we should paint the wall in Greek Blue, wait, no, let’s…”
12. Those little parties usually last an hour and 20 minutes.
13. Maybe it’s the caffeine.
14. I could give it up.
15. Nah.
16. Give up coffee?
17. Do you know me at ALL?
18. Vintage Market is closing in on us & I have some major shopping to do.
19. And painting, crafting, sewing.
20. Hahaha, sewing. I’ll be wrangling my mom into doing that job.
21. We’re closing in on Grayson’s school year (more on that soon) & can I say, whew.
22. There’s a homeschool/craft/project pile in my dining room that’s on the verge of embarrassing.
23. I have one month exactly before Tiffini gets here and discovers I’m a hot mess with a messy house.
24. I should spend time doing more organizing today.
25. Either way, gotta go. My coffee cup is empty.
Sounds like you are off to a great start, and someday you’ll look back on this time with wonder that you were able to do so much.
Sounds like you are having fun. You’ll figure out a pace that becomes comfortable. Congrats!
I bet Tiffini will love & appreciate any hot mess you have to offer. I still want to purchase the art w/ the sailboat :).
Girl you just wore my slap out!!!! But, sounds so stinkin FUN!! Can’t wait to come to the vintage market!!
Your perfectly imperfect life inspires me….. and also makes me glad your human! ~Kim
You are one busy lady! You inspire me as well… the shop is gorgeous (I was SO excited to stop in- even though you were in NOLA and I missed you)…
I am having to hold myself back from painting everything I can get my hands on now- I am SO loving the chalk paint sample Nichole graciously gave me during my visit.
Congratulations on the shop, the online store, the continued success of the blog- every thing you do is perfectly perfect!!! THANK YOU for inspiring us, teaching us, and letting us share your perfectly imperfect world.
I have a question for ya…what is the Vintage Market?
Blessings,
Linda
