Subject: OT Sayin Hello

still visit from time to time, but it seems all our lives are changing. Although I still have my stall & sell the gag gift ideas from here they are slow selling.

People get a lot of entertainment from them , often free entertainment. Never mind it brightens up their day

I buy soft toys in sales & on sell & I make blank greeting cards from my photos of local scenery.
I used to sell several a week of the bead bangles that my daughter makes, but none have sold for ages now, so I guess that craze has passed, or else too many making their own.
The children are very into the loom bracelets.

Here in Australia big fashion scarves were all the craze, I wonder what will be next !

I have lots of fun on face book & really enjoy it, I figure it is like driving a car or drinking alcohol, if you use it wisely it is a good thing

Good morning
I did mean to say "Saying Hello " but was a bit frazzled from the phone calls

We are getting lots of calls regards the Government�s rebate for solar panels, ( from an Indian sounding woman)

It does not matter what I say she waffles on & I end up hanging up

This morning I asked her to send some paper work, but all she said was

� I believe you have a solar panel ? No ? � So I still hung up

I guess you get those callers over there too. Usually telling you that your computer has a problem, they would not even know if you had a computer

Hi Fay~

It was nice seeing your post...glad to see you're keeping busy.

Yes, we do get a lot of those phone calls...a real nuisance. They don't want to take "No" for an answer...so next best thing is to just hang up...this is morning, noon, and night calls...never ends!

You take care..Hugs Joann

Hi Fay,
Thanks for updating us on your life! You do have a lot of people looking for ideas Craft shows etc. Here they sometimes have signs No Pictures of the Crafts and I figure those who say OH I could make that, probably will not remember how it was made until they get home.
On the phone our Caller ID helps out, Like you if I get caught I say we do not do business over the phone or after soooo many calls I say I will contact our Attorney, there has been a NO call list in the past. That you sign up for and it helped.
With Pinterest people should have a lot of ideas for shows these days, not like yrs. ago before the Computer age, I was going to a library, magizines etc. for ideas! LOL
I have chosen not to be on Facebook, I may be missing out
I still enjoy checking in on Craft Exchange Friends daily and the other Voy. I enjoy Crafting gifts for Friends and now have a little time to Craft something for myself which is New and Different! I also enjoy Card making and have collected WAY TOO MANY Scrapbooking SUPPLIES! I no longer do Craft shows,Crafting is still in my Blood! I miss the nice people I would meet but not the Hot, Wet, Cold ,Snowy mornings going to Shows all of the unloading and setting up! Guess I am just getting OLD! LOL
Take Care!
Blazer(Darlene P.)
