I got the the Northern Star part of CYS and my are organization and joy…. I'm terrible about getting and keep things organized. From my dyeing studio to my time to my house to homeschooling my kids. I don't know what to do differently so I don't know what goals line up with that norther star… So how do I make it influence my planning when I…[Read more]

@christie-minchew Yay! Happy birthday!

@karen-whooley Exciting! 😀

@jill-wolcott Oops… 🙂

Hope everyone is doing well this week. I'm sticking with the weeding goal this week. Although we've had some cute little birds visiting some of them, so maybe I'll just leave those ones 😀

There is a thread in the Ravelry Shopkeepers forum about similar issues:http://www.ravelry.com/discuss/ravelry-shopkeepers/3446833/26-50#40

I think the issue in most of the cases in the Rav thread is that US PayPal has a new algorithm that freezes transactions where the pattern name, business name, etc. include the name or partial name from a…[Read more]

Can I make a new map? I really think my first one was a lot of wharglbrgl (gonna look it over again tonight) that wasn't definite enough for me to know if I was actually achieving a GOAL or not. I mean, that one was based on a product I didn't love, that I'm now trying to unload so I can do what I really want. I know things are going to flex and…[Read more]

I figure now that I've done battle with MailChimp, I'm going to send a *#&$^@% newsletter once a month if it kills me. 😛 For the time being, I've given myself permission to keep it rather plain and simple; a new picture in the header, a link to the shop, and a short note about what's going on (hello to new subscribers, thanks for coming to the…[Read more]

O HAI I haven't posted at all since June 6, it appears. That would be three weeks, right? I can't even.

Whatcha working on?
What am I not working on, I think? The CNY show was the weekend of the 12th, and while not bad, was not great. The weather was VILE, and it's an outdoor show (big tents). I made less in two days than I've made in one and I'm…[Read more]

Here are the power-ups I came up with:

1) Spend 5-15 minutes (set a timer) cleaning or de-cluttering one area of the house (most especially my desk area or office, if it needs it that's empowering to me to work in a clutter-free space!)
2) Make a smoothie.
3) Glass of water
4) Cup of tea.
5) Small burst of exercise – I read this thing that said…[Read more]

Hi @shelley-husband, and welcome!!

There's a second live chat during the week for international folks who can't make the main chat – I can't remember for sure what time they meet but I think @tanja-osswald attends, so maybe she can tell us?

It's an individual setting in gmail — it will come up at the top “always display images for this sender” or something like that.

Thanks for all those lovlies, @linda-tieu!

OK thank you @linda-tieu and @tanja-osswald ! I'll mark it in my planner and try to be there 🙂

Thanks Tanja I'm glad its all good for you 🙂 Its odd. I was contacted by another person today saying their order is showing pending due to paypal payment issue on rav but I have received payment for it. I've gifted them the pattern in the meantime. Bit of a pain to have to do that for every order though :/ I will have to wait to hear from…[Read more]

It is ten a.m. on Monday in Italy (and Germany).
We'd love to have you along!

I read it as 10 pm- I see it's 10 am LOL Can I confirm what day that is? 10 am Italy on what day? It will be 6pm my time on the same day. Might be tricky with family stuff, but will try

Fabulous! That's 6 am my time on Wednesday morning and I'm an early riser so will be there most likely 🙂

I'll look forward to leaning more about you @linda-tieu and @tanja-osswald 🙂

My email program asks me for every email I receive whether I want to see the pictures.

Thanks for posting this, Linda. We are a small group, indeed, but we are happy about new company! Plus, it is a good way to start the week, chatting with Starship Captains.

I just checked – my Ravelry/paypal works fine. But I'm probably on another continent and our paypal is sat up differently?
