Confusion

I am so confused. I don't know how some of the people on etsy sell soo many things so quickly, and I struggle to get a sale a week. I know my pictures aren't that great. I am working on it.
I also feel so isolated with this whole blogging thing. I don't know how other people find your blogs to read them, and I don't know how to find other peoples blogs. I should probably ask my fifteen year old.
I am fighting off old insecurities, and trying to perservere. I believe in the things I create, I do though sometimes worry that instead of being true to myself and what inspires me, I try to think of what will sell instead.
Well, until I figure all of this out, I will just be using my blogspot as my own personal online journal.


I am excited about putting all of my Halloween stuff on my etsy site (www.luckygirlgifts.etsy.com) I am really excited about all of the stuff I created. I love Halloween, I know a lot of people don't but, I take it as just good fun. Last year I started a new tradition. Like a lot of people, I don't really like being the center of attention on my birthday, and since it is in October, I pushed the celebration back a couple of weeks and had a Huge Halloween Party!!! Everyone had so much fun, the house looked great, or should I say Ghoulish!! One of my guests said it looked better than the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland, I don't know about that. We had wonderfully scary food, and a Costume contest. I was a little worried that none of the guests would really get into it with their costumes, but when they arrived WOW did they go all out. Half of the people forgot it was for my birthday, which was perfect with me. I even made a spooky playlist on my Ipod for the occassion. Halloween is fast approaching and now I need to start decorating, and preparing new and scarier foods, and decor. I am a little nervous that it wont be as good as last year, but oh well, it will still be fun.

I haven't figured out the picture thing so well, so when I do I'll try to post some pictures just in case anyone is out there reading this.
If you are thanks, if not, that's ok too.
