My daughter remarked:
Okay, so I'm looking at your website (http://www.creativemindoriginals.com/) and checking out your scads of
cool merchandise and suddenly it occurs to me . . . "Didn't she retire from all this just three or four months ago?"
Mom, you have the creative bug and you have it bad!

My response:
Yes, I retired from moving all of that merchandise and the tables and the fixtures from upstairs to the garage downstairs and packing every square inch of the car with just enough room left for me and hauling the whole lot to craft fairs near and far (mostly far) and unpacking the car and setting up my booth and standing on my feet all day manning (womanning?) the booth and then breaking down the booth and packing all that stuff back into my car and driving home dead tired in the dark and unloading the car and stowing everything away until the next show and then crashing for two solid days because I'm too old to be doing what I just said!
And, yes, I must create just as surely as I must breathe.
I figured that maintaining an online "booth" would be far less physically taxing than a "brick and mortar" booth so I redesigned my information-only website into an online Gallery and Gift Shop. Glad you like it, my dear. Tell you friends...
