valis2Word wants me to change What about your other friends? to What about you're other friends?
Not making this up. Not doing it,either.
This has been a good weekend so far. The bare bones of the website are up, and I'm adding products. This means a total overhaul. See, for Etsy & eBay I take a new scan of every single lot I list, because people want to receive exactly what they see in the image. I can't just use one pic over and over again. And because the pic is up for only a short time, it's quickest (and easiest on my back) to just take scans of everything and run with it. However, for a website where you can order in quantity, nobody expects a new pic for every single item.
So because I'm only doing one pic for each website product, I want to do it right, and I've been taking camera pics instead of scans. Which meant a new and exciting learning process. So that's what I've been doing.
In between taking pics and C&Ping eBay text to the website (which also will have to be totally revised), I've been writing. I finished the Big Climactic Scene a couple weeks ago, and now I've just finished the first half of the Mini Climactic Scenes. So I'm seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. FINALLY. After being stuck in a sentence for three days, I got past it. I can't wait to finish this fic and start posting it. Riptide FTW. Though I can't imagine anyone will actually want to read it.
Also, I managed to completely restock my eBay store, and get a whole mess o' stuff ready to slowly list on Etsy. So this has been a mega-win weekend.
Plus, Husband and I went out on the boat together and Husband rowed me around the whole pond, which was quite fun. I have literally TONS of pics which I have not shared with you all, and I hope to remedy that soon. I took some of the coolest tree pics I've ever taken when I took the boys to Hartwick Pines, and I can't wait to show you them.
First, though, more website stuff. It's a good thing I'm a little OCD and ADD and I can concentrate on stuff I want to do for hours. hee!
