Hey I got this idea to start a business to suppliment my income, or lack of forsight on getting a college degree. Actually I didnt think that my 54th birthday would sneak up on me just when I was having so much fun being thirty. So Ive had this amazing ride, but forgot to get a retirement income thing. No 401 or anything. Altho Im damn glad i didnt loose half of my 401 either in this latest great recession stuff. Half of nothing is still nothing. Id rather be creating art at ninty then asking "do you want frys with that" all day. Life is like that, always full of options. So rather then worrying about where Ill go to recover form my next face lift, Im worring about comming up with a product line. And then how get enough time to create it. Then midway into my business plan, or lack there of I met a guy. Yes typically thats when the trouble begins. But he has joined me in this adventure. He does stuff in leather and sews. I sculpt, sew, paint, spin, weave, make jewerly, and actually I think Ive tried most art forms. So now we are both working to build an inventory to market at shows and some online sales. We have an old Dodge 15 passenger van that we are converting into a motor home. I named the van, "Morrison". He will take us to shows and sales. He has wind wings! Did you ever wonder why kids today want shotgun so bad? Its genetic. It comes from the early days of riding in a car(1950's) without air conditioning. If you were the kid up front you could position the wind wing to blow air on you! And it was cool to spit your gum out too. Those were the days. So I hope to get some work done on wednesday!! Ill keep you posted on how things are comming along. I worked a ten hour day today at my job. So Im a bit pooped out. I work a real job at an acupuncture clinic part time. So do you want needles with that??
