It's going to be one of those days!
I woke up today and said to myself, "Self, it's going to be one of those days." Oh you know 'em. A day after one of those weeks, when you are just a bit too tired to be rested from sleeping in late. Saturday is sometimes just not enough reason to relax.
September was just one of those months. The Season is upon us and I mean THE season; Christmas. Now that I am working on e-cards as well as paper greeting cards I am hit by each holiday at least twice; three time if you count the actual holiday!
Add to this the effects of the business of bringing JOY in people's lives, and well sometimes a gal just needs a rest. I spent the week dealing with contracts and agreements (and disagreements) and no matter how much my attorneys explained the "realities" to me I found myself just wishing that people really understood what I got to go through to make the best greeting cards!
Anyway this is not a time for laying down on the job. I am working on Christmas and Thanksgiving, and I've added Durga Puja, Navaratri, and Boss' Day to October's MUST SEE greeting cards. We got Halloween to finish too and then there's Hanukkah and Christmas and Kwanzaa and New Year coming fast.
I think there should be a day when we celebrate the greeting card designers. I think that day should be today.
