So We Were On The Front Page!

Like all Etsy sellers, we dream about being on the front page and get loads and loads of sales. Funny thing though, we have been on the front page several times but never generated immediate sales. Oh well. :)

So we were on the front page again yesterday. Sometime in the evening when I wasn’t in front of the computer.

Getting Coco Ready for the Big Day.

Coco’s appointment with her favourite vet for her spaying surgery is tomorrow. Gee, I’m already starting to worry – in fact, just like when it was Xiao Bi’s turn, I started worrying since weeks ago. >.<

So we have to fast her tonight after 6pm and tomorrow morning, which means Xiao Bi has to fast with her too. LOL! I kinda think this is a good idea, judging from the monkey-fella who is getting really fat day by day – you know, you can’t really see her waist line now!

Still not sure if we will be bringing Coco back the same evening after her surgery. I’m more worried that Xiao Bi will be disturbing her and both gone messy, although with Coco’s condition after surgery, this shouldn’t happen… you see! I’m still worrying!

Arrggghhh!

I Need To Love Myself, Better.

Sorry that I haven’t been updating blog for, really a while, again.

This life is getting more hectic as the holiday season approaches. Tons of work to settle at my work place, and more to settle in our little business. I have been working more than 12 hours a day for about 2 weeks now, and I can tell you, it’s tiring. LOL!

Sometime in the middle of the week I grabbed some lamb shoulders at the supermarket and came back pan-frying them as dinner for me and Wah. I wanted to get some garlic spread for garlic bread but for that small tub, it was really expensive. I ended up chopping up some fresh garlic in the kitchen and added them into a cheap butter in the fridge, spread on slices of bread and toasted them in oven. Results? Awesome. Really, who need those expensive little tubs? :P Oh and the lamb shoulders came out really great. One of our best meals at about RM10 for 2 only! ;)

**********

I’m currently tempting to take a few days off from work. No emails and calls, so I could concentrate resting. I want more lamb shoulders – LOL! I want more sleep. I want more of my-time.

Wah made this after being suggested by a great buyer – which also reminds us, we haven’t been updating the iPhone case series for a while. More work to get done!

So It’s Monday Again.

So it’s another Monday, in another 2 hours.

Been living like a crazy woman for the past 2-3 weeks. Slept an average of 6-7 hours per day, most of the time lesser. Haven’t got my dose of 30-minute-afternoon-nap for a while.

For some reason I find myself not so productive for the past 2-3 weeks. I just can’t concentrate, both at my day job and at our little business. Sales at our little business were picking up really well for a while, and then stopped for a while. But things are certainly moving. We’ve got 2 custom orders – completed one, another one still on the look, and we have 2 new product lines coming up. Oh and we’ve placed our order on 1000 Ideas for Creative Reuse, the book featuring our products. Yes we did get contributor’s discount but hell the shipping was like USD$20! >.< I was checking on Amazon the first few days it was released in the U.S and someone left a 5-star feedback. Can’t wait to get our copy! :D

And by the way, I’ve finally made the move the other day. Finally stepped out and made a decision at my day job. I like the job and the people but I can’t be separated into two – although I’m Geminian. And I can’t lie to myself that I really hate Mondays… and weekdays. And pressure. And not being able to work at my own pace. And… OK I will just admit that I was never an office animal. Never.

Oh well.

Here is a new product line that we’ve been working on. All will be listed at our Etsy shop and on our Facebook Fan Page.
