Some good news!

First, somewhat OT: I'm almost done with my physical therapy. I've got most of
my range of shoulder motion back, though I still can't fasten my bra behind my
back. I think I'll find a health club somewhere nearby where I can continue to
work on my shoulder strength and flexibility, but at least now I'm functional.

Second, on topic: I'd mentioned that I make jewelry while chatting with the
therapy people, and several of them expressed a desire to see what I make. So
today I hauled all my merchandise up there and spread it out on the break-room
table, and my partner sat and kept an eye on it while I did my routine. I got
almost $200 in sales! And it wasn't just the cheap stuff going out the door,
either -- a couple of my good necklaces found homes. Not bad, for a customer
base of less than 20 people, half of them male! g

So now I'm energized, and feel like making new stuff again!

I'm planning something similar at Kevin's law firm soon. They've seen the
jewelry I made for K's secretary, and they all went gaga. grinning with
anticipatory glee

THANK YOU, Celine. Because making jewelry wasn't on the list of things I was
planning on doing today, and now it is. And GOOD NEWS on both fronts, therapy
progress and sales for you!
