I'm Overwhelmed... My Solution, Blog about it!

I'm overwhelmed! I think I need to curb my abundance somehow.

We got back from our North and South Carolina trip with fresh goodies from the stamp convention.

In addition to that I had another round of shopping at the gem show right before we took off. It seems that I had too many days off since my gem show shopping burnout and was afresh with new zeal for possibilities with new supplies. 

Will I get around to showing those off? I don't know.

I had a great trip with my husband Mr. Coryosity and my favorite older sister Robin

in Charleston, South Carolina.

(I have another favorite sister but she's my favorite younger sister)

They're sitting on a bouncy bench in front of Hyman's Seafood restaurant.

I had done a little research on restaurants in Charleston and came up with this one.

We happened upon it at just the right time and the line wasn't too awfully long to get in.

Robin is examining a sample hush puppy that they gave us as we were waiting.

A lot of famous folks have eaten here

I ate fish at this table.

Jerk swordfish, crabcakes, hush puppies, fried oysters and collard greens.

I'm glad we had time to walk this meal off!

An abundance of food!

Didn't give a thought to the dangers of posing in a hollow tree.

My feet were alive with fire ants. The next half hour in the car I was ow!...

and ohh! as they made their way up my legs and bit me, crawling out of my removed socks and shoes and  all over the dash.

An abundance of ants!

Upon our arrival at home there were three boxes  and a postcard from

Amy at Artist in the Arctic waiting for me at our doorstep.

One box from lovely Lorna from Artymess, full of handpicked goodies.

I'll try to show these off later.

A box from Corrine at Dosfishes with my completed winter theme collaboration book that we did with Lyle from Just a Note

Another post for this as well..

And a box from my brother and sister in law from their trip to China

I have agents all over the world searching for goodies!

So what I really to be doing now is cataloging and sorting and putting these wonderful supplies together creating pieces to sell on my newly designed website that my nephew (favorite older sister's oldest son) just finished creating.  I know that I have more to add to it but I'm more than pleased with the first page. I think he did a wonderful job don't you think?     www.numinositybeads.com

I also need to figure out how to put a shop up here on this blog as well, Anyone done this yet that can tell me how easy it is so I won't be so overwhelmed?

The good news is that even if I do none of these things life will be just fine and I needn't stress myself over it. We do have international visitors from Sweden showing up on Monday  for a two week visit so it's not so likely that loads will be accomplished. But then again I may surprise myself, I've been know to do that on occasion! Meanwhile, I aim to enjoy the abundance rather that let myself be overwhelmed.
