It is hard to get things done with a toddler around. They live in the moment and they literaly pull you into their lives. My daughter's heart is so big and her feelings are so fragile. She wants to help, but she is too little and messes things up.
Starting an online store is tough when somebody always wants your attention. Everything matters from taking photos, cropping the pictures to make them look nice, picking the categories to list your items in... That part is harder than making the jewelry. I suppose there is an art to everything - but I'm not good at that yet.
Now, while she is sleeping I will make a purple angel, some flowered bobby pins. I will list the set of planetary bulletin board pins, and ship off the doves and tweety bird.
Before my daughter was born, I made a schedule the night before and followed it the next day. Comparing the estimated and actual times to get things done was a fun game. It's not fun anymore. Schedules don't work when everything runs on Sophie time. I am such a mess now and need to get organized. Need something like a floating to do list in my head.
I'm going to try this thing I heard about on TV last night. You're supposed to picture the rooms of your house, and make it into a story so
TO DO:
make angels and flowers
take pictures
list them on line
tidy the house
read self help book
SO:
Picture yourself on a sofa covered with angels and flowers reading
a self help book. There is a camera on the table and a messy
stack of pictures. In fact, the whole room is a mess...
I'm going to try to keep that image in the back of my mind, so if there is a free moment when Sophie isn't occupied I'll remember and rush to do something hopefully. | |

Kids are unpredictable. Time Scheduling won't work well. You should try to sleep well, take care of your daughter, and do all the essentials. The free time remaining can be used for making your crafts.
Be well |
