how about which and that? There are so many annoyances, but it is mostly because people don't bother to proofread. On my phone, I'm as guilty as anyone. I'll start jotting them down!

The one I have to look up is lay/lie, which for some reason I have a block about.

“ect” for etc drives me nuts, and lose/loose, as well as “would/could of” noooo… I'm sure there are others, there are always others lol.

Oh goodie! I will definitely be stopping by the bar, and will most likely be joining you for dinner! Can't wait!!!

What's going well?
The fibre arts event fibrefeeliafest.ca seems to be going okay. Met the sign-ups for the workshops I was hoping for, but will likely have to cancel 3-4 workshops due to lack for sign-ups. Should have enough vendors for the market place.

– Personal connection is king. I ask “how can I make this more personal?” and focus on really talking with my people.
– A new one is the realization that there maybe somebody else making that…[Read more]

The big ones like Maker might be OK but basically anyone who approaches you is in general assumed to be not great. (Also contracts are dodgy, one wanted to restrict you to only…[Read more]

I really enjoyed this episode too. It helped me to think about my productivity targets, how much stock I make, time spent on new ideas, and how much profit comes from each sale.
