🌧 Rain today, which I find myself enjoying more and more lately (which is new for me). Also new is wishing it was a bit colder so the precipitation would be snow.

For 2023. A planner and a “Do Work” notebook. I started using the do work notebook this year, helps me focus and plan quarterly goals and work.
Beautiful scenery on my drive to deliver a leather order in Maryland.
All sides stitched. Next lunch. Then stitching the bottom to each. 2,334 stitches to go.
A nice post-card to go along with each Christmas order I ship out this month. A simple handwritten note will go on the back of each. Also, I love being able to go from idea to execution in just a few minutes. Deciding to make my own print materials has been a great move so far.
💭 Felt affection in my dreams last night. Slept longer than I should have as a result.

Custom version of one of my best sellers. I see a lot of zippers in my future. Shipping this one out today.
😀 Planning to take "off" the last week of the year...looking forward to it!

From today to Saturday I will be completing 4,214 stitches (by hand) on a massive leather project.
Also, today is day 40 of no alcohol (none!), and man do I feel good!
Joining the 4am club for a few weeks.
One of eight total leather bins (18”x12”x12”). Will deliver all of them to my customer in Maryland next week 😊
May be “leaving money on the table” but I just ended my holiday leather sale early, turned off all ads, any orders received today or after today cannot be gauranteed for Christmas. What a run! Now: catch up on the backlog of orders. Then, around Dec. 20: rest.
Third time is a charm…I hope.
😞 Holidays feel much different with the divorce being finalized, feeling rather blue today. That aside, I am thankful for the rainy morning, my routine of hot French press coffee, and another day!

🌇 This morning I am happy to report that I was up early enough to watch the city around me transform from dark as night to light as day.
