Yikes!

I didn't realize it's been that long since I last posted! Things have just been really busy here and it doesn't look like I'll catch a break anytime soon! Usually I spend the weekends catching up, but I've been doing shows. This past weekend I did only one show on Saturday, but I spent Sunday catching up on some much needed sleep. This coming weekend are the bingos. Both days. My displays will be smaller, but I have to get prizes together tomorrow to take and drop off for Sunday's game. Not sure what's up with Saturday's since I haven't heard from the woman in charge.
School is going okay, except for Zoe. I'll just email her mentor and ask for the return list and labels to be sent. She flat out refuses to do the work. I don't know if I should try Cricket's school with her, or just wait a year. Maybe I'll ask her tomorrow and see what she says. I don't think she'd have the computer "games" like she does now, and that seems to be her major issue.
I've started to list on ebay again. I saw they were offering 100 free listings, pay when they sell. So I have over 25 books listed. Most have watchers (didn't check the newest ones), and 1 has a bid. Hoping they *all* sell! I'll be listing more all week to try to get rid of some of the stuff we have lying around here. I'm pacybermom24 on ebay if anyone is interested:)
Still have to sort the littles clothes. *sigh* I keep putting it off, but the weather has turned, and we need to see how many long pants each of the kids has so we can plan a trip to the thrift store. I know Lexi will need some. She has issues with certain jeans and how they fit. She doesn't like how leggings fit. Plus she's so tall, we have issues there.
I've been doing some craft shows. So far, they've been duds. I'm hoping to find a few more locally so I can sell some gifts in a jar and other goodies I make. I'll have out flyers and cards for my other businesses - if it's handmade only allowed- but I have a bunch of goodies I can make to sell. I have some more printing to do for a basket I'd like to make. Well, 2 baskets. 1 is an Advent basket, the other is a fun take on the 12 days of Christmas. I'll be making calls this week looking for more shows. Luckily I have a lead on one at a local high school.
I better get to bed. It's bound to be a long week, and I really can't afford to sleep 18 hours again because I'm sleep deprived!
