Frames

I am a bit bummed. I guesstimated how much it would cost for me to mail that stupid bag...and it was off by $5. So, I made *no* money on making that for him. :-( I am too nice...I hate to overcharge, and I always take the hit. In the end I made 1 penny. Blah, oh well...if he orders anything else in the future I will just charge more.

I am starting on an art project today that should keep me a little bit busy the next couple days. It is framing my artwork. I have been collecting picture frames at yard sales if I can get them for a quarter or so. I am going to paint them all to go in my living room (like mom did). Though, mine will all be black. Then I am going to put my artwork in them. I don't know how many of my pieces will fit in the ones I have, so that is my project today...figuring out what I have and what pieces will fit and what I will need in addition. Then I will paint the ones that will work and save the others for projects I do in the future.

Tonight we are going to tackle the other half of the storage room downstairs. Deric's stuff that has been peed on by the cats and needs hosed down and organized into labeled boxes if it is useful or (this is what I am hoping) mostly thrown away. FINALLY after 4 years of keeping it around in the condition it is in...yuck. So, wish me luck!
