opening the flood gates...

i opened the flood gates yesterday...

i contacted some of my "regulars" 2 let them know that i'm starting 2 delve back in2 cake decorating again

i should have known better than 2 make a status update on Facebook mentioning that i was considering jumping back in...i was quickly flooded with private messages - all of my friends wanted 2 book their special events

& i love it! i do.

i'm so thankful that people appreciate my work...that they jump at the chance 2 get 1 of my cakes...& i so wish i could create a cake 4 every1!

but i simply can't go back 2 being as busy as i was b4 cancer schmancer showed up...back then, if i was at home - i was working on cakes...it left very little time 4 Curtis, the kiddos, our home...or even myself!

so please b patient with me as i find my groove again...we really need the extra dough right now (with Curtis still on the job hunt*), but i also have 2 remember 2 keep my priorities in check...cause i'll only b kicking myself in the ass later, if i overbook myself now

so i'm taking it 1 or 2 months at a time...not planning anything (with the exception of wedding cakes) too far ahead (at least not until cakes r the ONLY job i have)...i promise 2 try & make room 4 every1 that i can...2 spread the love ♥

but i've gotta say no sometimes too...i've finally learned that there simply isn't enuff Sharon 2 go around! ;0)


*thx 2 a wonderful friend that checked with her father (who's an electrician) 4 us, Curtis is out working with him 2day...a trial run of sorts...thx again 4 keeping us in ur prayers! continue 2 pray 4 us please...we're hoping 2day goes smoothly - that they both like each other, that Curtis is able 2 prove that he's the man when it comes 2 electrical work, & that this gentleman continues 2 recieve enuff work 2 keep Curt busy!
