Life is calm

I finally have a moment to write!

I am over half way done with the large order, I am on a regular schedule and I just found out that I am going to need to be ready for larger orders more often!

I feel so free and balanced.

Glassy Baby just opened a second shop in Seattle. I visited the new space a few weeks ago and it is so beautiful!

Whoa it's been a long time

I can not believe it has been almost two weeks since I last posted. What an amazing two weeks!
First, the candles are flying off the shelf. I am packing boxes, pouring wax and setting everything up all at once. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and it is going to be amazing.

I have also been able to spend a good amount of time with my nephew. Every moment with him is the highlight of my day. We have so much fun together and I love watching him learn to grow up and talk.

Spring may one day show up in Seattle but it still feels so far away..... On the one hand, I love the cloudy days because it means I do not feel guilty for making candles inside all day. On the other hand, I can't wait for the summer to take long walks at night in the warm air. So far we are almost to the summer solstice and we have only had one day that was warmer than 75 degrees.

I am hoping to travel to the East Coast in a few weeks unless something major happens. I always think nothing will happen and then a huge order comes in so it is best for me not to plan anything anymore and just go when I can.

All I want to do is be somewhere else

This really has to stop. I am just staring at my screen with nothing on my mind. I have no work yet I feel like I must make it to the end of my contract since I like to finish what I started. But my mind is turning to mush while I wait out the hours.

So painful!

I am thinking of what I want to change in life now that I will have more free time. I am going to get my bike out of the basement and start riding it again! I also want to walk more and maybe even start to go swimming. I will return to the library to catch up on books I have missed since being on the Eastside of the city. Candles will be made everyday, but now, I can start to love it again. I never stopped loving it but I did feel overwhelmed!

I need a serious spring cleaning in my room and car. I will be spending much more time with my animals, I feel like I have been ignoring them lately. And hopefully, I will be able to see my Nephew, the love of my life.

And one last thing, I will Blog more! I have been so bad about blogging lately. So my dear readers, I will be back and better than ever. Oh and one last thing, I now have the time to set up a shopping cart and my account on Etsy! This is so exciting and something I have been wanting to do forever. So look out for new updates!
