Soooo....I quit my day job

Wooohoo, I feel so much less stressed :). I feel a lot more creative, like my time is finally my own, like I can give 100% to my business. I'm doing 3 markets a week now, a Saturday and Wednesday market in Knoxville and a Sunday market in Chattanooga. I'm actually posting from my saturday market as I write....the weather is so very cooperative today. Not raining, not to hot, my tent's in the shade :). Good day :).

Getting ready for work...

I just had a couple of extra minutes this morning before work so I thought I might as well take advantage of it. I'm going to my day job, 2nd assistant manager at a Cato store. I really loved the job when I started but sometimes I think the shine is wearing off. Well, our district manager is coming today which always brings added stress. I was thinking for awhile that it would be awesome to be a salaried manger (in addition to my art of course) but lately I've been thinking 'not so much'. I think I'm sticking to my original plan of going as far as I can with my art. The day job will do until I'm making enough money to pay bills from my artwork. I'm formulating a new life map so I'll keep heading in the right direction. I actually made a vision board this week. I'll have to take a photo of it and put it up here. Well.....better finish getting ready. *sigh*. I don't know, I still like working there - maybe I'm just not looking forward to today.
