And the beat goes on...

Extremely frustrated with technology. I made a few videos of my work to put up on You Tube, and I edited them in the Microsoft thingy that came with the lap top. And YT doesn't accept the format, so now I have to redo all of them before I can post. My goal is to make enough things to sell at the show in St. Augustine at the end of the month and anything that doesn't sell there is going up on Etsy. Almost done with the mortgage being transferred into my name and as soon as that's all taken care of I'm going to refinance and gut the whole house to make it liveable. He left things all falling apart. So new kitchen, floors, paint and furniture. I'm hoping to have enough left to pick up this old airstream that I have been eying. It would be the absolute perfect thing for me to take to do shows with. Then if B ever finishes fixing my truck I will have everything set to go.
The neighborhood yard sale is this weekend, and I'm going to clean out the garage and sell everything I can, which is going to make B lose his mind. But I told him it has to go, and he keeps putting me off. Son #1 is going to build me a big beautiful craft room to work in out there and all B's stuff is piled literally to the ceiling. Son #2 used to do air conditioning for a living and he is going to run ducts out to the new room.
I can't wait. I have alot of good things finally starting to happen. Maybe I can get out of my feeling so lousy about B leaving. The kids think I should date. But I really don't want to. Partly because I still love B and partly because I am just getting to know ME again, I don't want to lose myself in someone else before I really know what it is I want.
I start my new job (working from home!!!!) on the 24th and that will help out immensely with the bills that have been piling up. And B is supposed to start paying child support on the 15th (after only 10 months! what a sport) but between the 2 boosts in my finances, I'll be able to coast for a while until the business thing takes off. I won't be sitting here with no lights!
Well that's all for now. I did start following a couple of blogs that other women are writing, they're artists too. Between them and all the wonderful artists on YT I am really learning ALOT. So thank you everyone for inspiring me!
