Business, Giveaway, and More

I've been thinking a lot about starting my own business. I'm scared, that's for sure, but I'm not holding back because I'm scared. I'm holding back because I have terrible credit (that I ruined as a teen) and no financial institution will back me.

I want a hybrid. A physical, brick and mortar store, and an online store. In my physical store, you'd be able to make purchases, demo the products, and use my facilities for your projects. In the online store you'd be able to purchase products, see my calendar of events and such, and read tips and tricks or post your own. I want to be able to host artists and such.

I've been approached by a digital scrapbooking retailer, and they want me to try their software out, and give one away.

Scrapbook.com

Hello Everyone!

I have been spending a lot of my time here at scrapbook.com. There are great people there!!! I am participating in four challenges this month! August Single Pic, August Ugly Paper, August Use Your Scraps, and August Weekly Sketch Challenges.

I am going to be doing some re-arranging, and I may even drop blogger... I'm working on getting my own website up and running, and well, I need to get my poop in a group first! I don't just scrapbook, I don't just quilt, and I don't just (fill in the blank here), so I need a whole site, and then I can organize what my interests are. I don't want you to be bored by my posts for interests that you and I don't share!

Continuing Wisdom: Spellcheck your resume before you send it off! Also, change your objective for every job you apply for!!!

cowgirls, business and more

Hello Everyone! I am so excited! My best friend Stacy and her horse Misty have been invited to participate in the World's Competition for Extreme Cowboy Races. This is a high honor, and very few are invited. I am confident they will do very well, and am asking for you to rack your brain for sponsorship opportunities.

Stacy and I live in Michigan, and we have to get her to Oklahoma for the Competition. She has her own transportation, and her own horse trailer, just not the funds to travel down, and stay in a hotel. If you or anyone you know would like to sponsor Stacy, she is doing lots of advertising.

For more information, e-mail Stacy at sconely16@att.net, get on her facebook , or for general info go to www.extremecowboyassociation.com. (if you visit her facebook, you can see her and Misty in action!)
