not much going on

not much news to report. I'm busy getting ready to leave for California on Friday for CHA. I'll be working the Objects and Elements booth and then doing lots of networking (check out jen's lastest post here for some exciting news!). so it should be much fun. I'm hoping for some sunny, warm weather!

also, at the same time, I am starting to prepare for Artfest, which is in April.

this picture is of kashie, who i left in the studio area while i tended to tuck - he didn't like that so much! he's getting so big and weighs a whopping 3.2 pounds now!

Greetings from CHA

Well, today is the last day of CHA (craft and hobby associations trade show). it has been a busy, whirlwind, networking, socializing (got to spend some quality time with my partner in crime, Barbe St. John!) amazing time! i've met up with facebook friends, met new faces, seen old faces, run into students, friends from past retreats, met Cathie and Steve from the Cathie and Steve show (fun!) and probably walked a zillion miles! what an unbelievable experience. lots of great contacts, showing off my jewelry. i see good things coming!

right now i am at my sister's house in Ventura where i will stay the weekend and return home on Monday. they drove down to Anaheim yesterday to pick me up. i am quite tired (as to be expected!), but am drumming up just enough energy to hit a small swap meet today.

talk to you soon!
