Back in Business

When I started blogging, I had a nice business making collars and leads. I had started this business in 1994 and it had grown. I did not do any wholesale work; I preferred to custom make all the orders myself. Then I started to write my novel and I also started blogging. And I do some volunteer work and serve on some boards and next thing you know.. wooo-wee.



So I gave up my website custom collar business.

Well, the novel is going really well, and is even a little ahead of schedule! (Happy Dance.) This is due to my dear friend Rhonda who is helping me with organizational stuff and setting goals and things which normally mystify me. Time management is about as unattainable for me as oh, a graduate degree in Quantum Physics without the benefit of a course of study. So Rhonda has been a huge help. (She's been in publishing and in management and knows these things. How fortunate am I?)

Living without an income sucks.


So my website is back!!!! If you need a collar or if you are just curious, check out
http://www.dogwalkers.net/.

I'm trying to do the HTML stuff myself (oh dear Lord) so some things might be a little wacky for a bit until I just give up and pay someone to do it, but I really can't do that right now because as I mentioned previously, living without an income sucks.

That's what is new in our neck of the woods!

Hug your hounds anyway!

Gross Commercialism or How About A Collar?

I FINALLY got some collars made an up on eBay. For years I had a custom collar business, but it got so busy, and I'm trying to get this novel written, so I retired from that. My plan was to put collars on eBay at my convenience, thus earning my keep. But I continued to spent time writing instead of sewing, and there you go.

Now my sweet Bedside Table Occupant (see below if this makes no sense to you) needs to have a lump surgically removed from his gum on Friday (please God let it be a benign thingy) and I got a sudden jolt of I need to pay-the-bill-itis, so woo-hoo it's collars for you!

Here are some samples:

There are a lot more. You can just go to my eBay Store to see them all. If you want something in a larger size, just email me. OK, sorry for the commercial break and thanks for looking.

I still have to post about Sam I Am's fantastic Agility weekend and my Bertha Big Butt Moment, but we have B & B guests arriving this afternoon and don't even try to imagine what the house looks like. YIKES!
