New Venture Undertaking!!

I joined Stampin Up as a Demonstrator in March.  I have always wanted to become more involved with my rubber stamps, card making and scrapbooking.  So I decided to go ahead and take the plunge.  Right now I am in the set up stage of my stamping business.  I am in the process of finding customers and setting up stamping classes.  I will be doing a joint class with my upline Jean Addis on July 12, 2014.  We are going to do a Paper Pumpkin Make and Take class.  I am a little nervous about doing this class presentation but since I will be demonstrating a product that I enjoy working with, it should go well. I hope to be posting cards here on my blog as well as on my Stampin Up Blog located at http://maryhavlovic.stampinup.net  I am excited about this new venture.  I will be going to the Stampin Up Convention to take place in Salt Lake City, Utah in July.  I am excited about going to convention and meeting people with similar interests as mine.

I have been busy reading, rubber stamping and stitching.  I have so many different hobbies that I find I do not have enough hours in a day to do all the things that I want to do.  Work at the dialysis unit continues to keep me busy to the point that I don't even have time to take a break sometimes.  Maybe if I did take a break, I could read a few lines, rubber stamp a card or stitch a simple design.  Anyway...I have decided to play Bookish Bingo being hosted over at the Great Imaginations Blog.  I am looking forward to this challenge as I will be reading genres that I don't normally read so that I can earn a Bingo square.  As usual, I will be posting my Book reviews on my Goodreads site.  I my as well commit myself and list my Goals for 2014:

1.    To Lose 100 lbs.  (I am 7 lbs. away from this goal!)
2.    To read 50 books (not including the 24 books for the 2 book clubs that I am in)
3.    To finish 12 stitching projects (so far I have finished 3)
4.    To learn how to use my Mac computer and Ipad
5.    To post more regularly on my blog
6.    To organize my Craft room
7.    To learn how to sew on the sewing machine
8.    To design, start and finish all my cards for birthdays and major holidays
9.    To organize my personal library
10.  To design a way to separate my craft blog from my book blog  

I am not sure how many of these goals I can accomplish but I can sure try.  Until next time...
