I was telling Joel last night that it’s just not fair that some people can do things like write one book and then have it become a best seller the proceeds of which they can live off of.\u00a0 Or write one song and live off the royalties.\u00a0 *sigh*<\/p>\n

I wish I could write!\u00a0 I don’t even want to live off the money that it brings in for the rest of my life!\u00a0 If it could just cover our adoption I’d be more than satisfied.<\/p>\n

Waa waa waa.<\/p>\n

So I work on my jewelry when I can.\u00a0 The problem with making jewelry is that I have to have a lot of small things lying around when I’m working on any given project.\u00a0 This requires a decent amount of set up, substantial clean up, and a place out of the reach of small hands.\u00a0 And once I get past the initial basic things I’m making and on to the more intricate stuff it actually takes some time and concentration.\u00a0 It’s getting there, but much more slowly than I’d like.\u00a0 I think that has something to do with having five small children.\u00a0 Go figure.<\/p>\n

I did send some ideas on to an artist friend of ours<\/a> to make up a few Cafe Press t-shirts, so I may be able to link to that before too long.\u00a0 I don’t know how much he has on his plate right now, though, so we’ll have to see.\u00a0 He’s donating his services, so I certainly wouldn’t feel right hounding him.\u00a0 He’s an awesome artist, so it’s very cool that he agreed to help us this way. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

He told me he’d illustrate a children’s book for me if I ever manage to write one, too.<\/p>\n
