Public: So, what have you been up to lately?
Me: Working and sleeping mostly. Did have to go see the dentist after two of my implants fell out. He took out two more and now, I have to wait a month before he’ll put them back in again.
Public: Bummer.
Me: *sigh* That’s life.
Public: Surely you’ve done more than that lately?
Me: I’ve been working on things to put into my Etsy store when I have the time. I make hats and lapghans for cancer patients and veterans first, then I work on other stuff. I’m currently working on an edging for an altar cloth. The pattern is one that Marie Antoinette Hees published around 1915.
Public: That sounds like fun.
Me: I like learning new things and easy isn’t much fun anymore.
Public: Sounds like you have a full life.
Me: Not really, but I do try to keep busy even when not working.
Public: How is your writing going?
Me: Just submitted The Inbetween to Independent Publishers for consideration. I’ve not done much else since. I am trying to make money anyway I can to make ends meet, and my writing suffers because of it. The Etsy store and my job have to come first.
Public: Good luck on the book.
Me: Thanks. I’m also trying to read The Stone Monkey by Jeffrey Deaver when I have some time to. Not watching any television or movies right now – not enough time.
Public: What’s the link to your store, we’ll go have a peek at the very least.
Me: I’d appreciate that. The link is: https://www.etsy.com/shop/GriffinsMarket
Public: Keep up the good fight, and we’ll see you later.
Me: See you on the flipside and don’t forget your towel and sonic screwdriver.
