Why is it that when it rains it pours? My SIL is in the Hosp. with stage 3 overian cancer (which we learned is worse than what was first thought) and Hubby will be gone for a week on the 14th to visit her, Now his boss is giving Hubby Gripe about it and Monday is going to be a huge meeting with Hubby and co-workers/boss. We also just learned that his company is not doing so well so only time will tell on the next couple of months if Hubby even has a job! Everything is on the rise here, gas/milk/food.... I'm worried about lots tonight girls.
I have an Etsy site but no sells, Do ya have any more ideas on how I can make some spare change with my crafts? Ebay is out of the question with their fees.

I know it's dark right now, Heather...I'm not too far from you (about an hour south) and times are tough here--expensive food, gas, etc...Please have faith--our friend Richard was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in his head and throat and it's gone--prayer works, believe me. I've done so much of it for Richard since we found out. Prayer works for you, too, during these dark days.

I'm thinking of you and your family. Your husband's boss sounds like a poop, and I hope he comes to his senses.

Heather, I looked at your items and they are really sweet. Well done. Although I don't have an eBay store because i do not have enough items to make a store worthwhile, i do auction things on ebay and I have found that if you factor the ebay fees into your pricing you can do well on eBay. Once you have made a certain number of sales you can use the "buy it now" feature, this is the feature that really helped me sell more things when i started using it. You might want to consider Ebay again in addition to etsy. I have no experience with etsy and i wonder if they have tutorials for marketing your products on the site? If so, have you availed yourself of their tutorials? I am praying for you and your business and your hubby's job. If there are cut backs at his company i am praying it is his useless boss that is cut and not him! Cheers, karen
