Just a quick note to let you know we’re still doing the pen pal project. I’ve been busy with the new shop, trying to get everything working smoothly. I’ve also been setting up a warehouse (storage unit) for inventory so I can finally clear out the basement studio and make room to do more creating and designing. I can’t count how many baskets I’ve tripped over this year! And, I’m working with a company in CA who’s doing a big sale with Olive Manna in early November so that’s eating up a ton of time. Plus, all three of my kids have birthdays in the same week next month and Grandma (my mom) is coming to visit, so it’s a really hectic Fall for me.

Oh yeah, pen pals… :) With everything going on, I hate to push this back because I know you’re all busy too and so excited some of you, to get your pen pal and get on with this writing stuff! I’m not holding them hostage, I promise. I’m looking at early next month (just a few weeks) to get this going. It won’t be too official, just a name swap, possibly a badge for your blog to show off that you’re participating, and a few other goodies. I’m going to put the sign up form up again here just to see if we can get a few more people to join.

Thank you for waiting so patiently! You can also link directly to the form if you’d like to share it with others: http://natalie.wufoo.com/forms/m7x0z3/
