Give me craftiness, or give me a Mac!

So far I’ve kept up with my own personal NaCoWrMo, I am very proud.

I’ve been having the urge to craft lately. I really want to run a craft business again. Nothing terribly serious, just something to do after work, make some extra money. Maybe find that I’ve hit on the newest trend and am now making enough to just craft my days away….
Okay, well that last sentence is a dream. The rest is pretty realistic. I want to buy a soldering iron.

I’ve also joined a swap on Craftster, because I want to get back in to making things. Not just knitting. I joined the ATC swap. It seemed like a good one to join, I just have to produce one ATC (2.5″ by 3.5″, it stands for Artist Trading Card) and send it out. A nice, gentle nudge back into other crafts.
The sad thing is that all my craft supplies (apart from the knitting stuff…) is back at my parents’ house. Although that can work for this swap, I think it’ll just make me be more creative by using what I have.

I’ve been reading the quilting books at work lately. Which is funny, because I can barely use a sewing machine! I’ll post a mini-review of one of my favourites soon.

I wish I was independantly wealthy. I just want to sit and craft all day. Damn my 9-5 job. DAMN I say.

Speaking of job, as you may have read here before, I’m head of the crafts section at the bookstore I work at. I am now also head of the Mac section. <3 the Mac. Now I just have to convince work that they need to give me money for a new iBook, so I'll know what all the new manuals are about. :)
And if you are a Mac-user, and haven’t seen MacStyles yet, get thee hence!

When I have the money, I think I want mine to look like this:

But then again there are so many choices…
