Sick...

I haven't been feeling really great the last few days...stomach problems! It could have been a virus or a new medicine I started taking this week...either way I am feeling better and will be hopefully doing some blogging this weekend. I have a bunch of things to share, for now I am going to head to bed and get a good night's rest.

Be sure to check out my Etsy page!

A title?

I have no idea what to call this blog so I gave it the best I could come up with. lol Not to bad, right...hehe

Anywho--I got a bunch of new goodies from Etsy yesterday and I got a chance last night to work with them, man was I in the zone! Seriously I was pumping pairs of earrings out right and left...I created 5 new pairs. I have yet to take photos yet, it was too cloudy here today...but definitely within the next few I'll get some taken.

I am absolutely 100% addicted to Etsy. This includes my shop as well as shopping everyone else's sites, especially the jewelry suppliers. I can find a million things that I'd like...the problem is that I keep putting money into my business but I'm not getting that much out. I don't mind, because I really do love making jewelry but my bank acct is hurting. :( Oh well, I will keep on creating and spending my time doing what I really enjoy.

Those are a pair from my last uploaded batch...I promise, some really great ones to come!!

Okay, now I am off to visit everyone else's blogger-rooney! :)

Super Sunday!!

No idea why I named today's blog that, other than simply it popped in my head and I went with it. haha

So... I got my new car yesterday! Well technically I didn't get it, but I chose it and filled out the preliminary papers now it is just a matter of time. I need to get the loan from my mom's credit union and then bring it on in, and the car is mine!! I was thinking of getting a brand new Chevy Cobalt because there were good deals but previously I had test drove a Dodge Caliber and really loved it. The dealership we were at had a 2008, with low mileage and the right price and a clean carfax so I took it. I will probably pick it up late this week!! The picture isn't of mine, it's a stock photo...and mine is Silver, but it gives you an idea of what it looks like.



This morning, I got up early because of the clock change and I went and cleaned out my current car. So that's all done and ready to be traded in.

I also posted 3 more pairs of earrings....I'll share one of the pictures with you.



Okay, my parents should be calling me soon! We're meeting them for lunch today.

Yummy dinner!!

Seamus and I went for a delicious dinner tonight!! We went to this place called The Irishman.
It's in Williamsville, NY, and if you're from around this area I HIGHLY recommend it. I go there pretty frequently for lunch and such and I always enjoy it sooo much. The food is always delicious and they hand-cut their fries and they are sooo yummy. I tend to always get the Reuben, and the best part is that they do not use seeded rye...I hate fennel seed. BLAH! So yup, it was yummy!

Tomorrow is car shopping, I'm really hoping for some good deals!! Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Okay, I think it is bedtime for this lady!!

MORE earrings!! :)

Ahhhh...nothing feels better then getting a batch of earrings up and posted! I just finished with that...it was a batch of four, but I always feel so successful after I finish. I also always hope that when I post them they make it to the newly listed scroll and they get some views! :) I included a picture of a pair. They are called Marguerite. Check them out if you want to see more pictures and different angles.

I also made it to a treasury this week, I was very thrilled and honored to be a part of that!

Those are my earrings in the third column second item down!! Unfortunately it expired already, but I always feel so special when someone chooses to include me and thinks my item is special enough.

I've had a pretty busy week so far, Monday is my physical therapy for my back which doesn't take all night but is just one more thing that keeps me from creating and/or blogging, Tuesday is laundry night because unfortunately I do not have a washer or dryer. :( Wednesday I had a bunch of errands to run and didn't end up getting a chance to relax until about 8:30 or 9. PHEW! Finally today I had a chance to sit down and spend time with my jewelry. :) Oh well, tomorrow is Friday and I have to say TGIF. This weekend I need to go car shopping, because my current car was totaled by a plow earlier in the winter, it's still drivable but won't pass inspection. It's almost 10 yrs old anyways, time for a new one. I'm hoping with the economy so bad that it'll be a buyers market out there. Wish me luck!! :) Sunday, I hope to do nothing but grocery shop and make jewelry.

Alright that is all for me for tonight, I'm going to go peruse the internet now.

.....Oh yah, visit my Etsy shop...http://jillianmackowiak.etsy.com/

Okay, now time for night night! :D

One pooped lady!!

So I've spent the last two hours working on jewelry...the two hours prior to that at the laundramat, and then the 8 hours prior to that at work. Needless to say I am pooped!

I am happy though, I sold another piece of jewelry yesterday. I was at work when I got the email from Etsy on my BlackBerry and man O man was I excited. I shipped it out today so hopefully the buyer will have it by the weekend. It was actually the earrings pictures in my previous blog. I also quickly made another pair and got them right on up. They're one of my favorites that I've ever made! Check out my site if you want to see additional pictures of them, http://jillianmackowiak.etsy.com/

Okay, so I'm super pooped and now off to bed!

:)

New earrings!!

I just got finished adding three new pairs of earrings to my website on etsy. Check them out, http://jillianmackowiak.etsy.com/

So my weekend was kind of a bust, yesterday I was supposed to go to a Buffalo Bandits game which is indoor lacrosse. We did go, but it stunk! The people that we were sitting by were obnoxious and completely ruined it for Seamus and I. Oh well! Today I worked on my Etsy shop and grocery shopped and that's about it. Nothing too exciting, I just wish there would have been more relaxing because I don't wanna go to work tomorrow!! :(

I just got an email from my sister who lives in Atlanta...they had snow today and quite a bit of it. She said her and her boyfriend went out and played in it. For her, it isn't an exciting thing (since she's a native of WNY), but her boyfriend is from Atlanta and rarely sees much snow. Luckily for us in Buffalo we had a beautiful sunny day with no snow...I'm hoping for more of the same in this coming week!

Okey dokey, that's about all for me for tonight. See yah all soon!!
