mad and glad

In a lovely chain of events, it turns out that the sales tax form I have been checking the mailbox for everyday was never processed in the first place! After speaking with some nice (and some not-so-nice) women in Nashville, we discovered that a problem occurred in the online filing of the application so nothing was ever confirmed. The application has once again been completed, so back to waiting…

In true Pollyanna form (thank goodness I have a mother who made me watch it a million times while I was growing up), I will be glad this happened and look at it as an opportunity to make sure every last detail of the business (getting the settings on my new printer just right, having prints on hand and ready to package, organizing shipping supplies, perfecting the Etsy shop policies, etc.) is settled. That way, the day the tax form arrives, 23Postcards will officially be open for business on Etsy!

Here’s a look at a very special piece I did for my boss/friend Tori. (The photos are her mom/grandmother and her dad.) I think it might be my new favorite piece…

On a separate note, a big thank you to each of you who has read my blog, become a fan on Facebook or is a follower on Twitter. I sincerely appreciate the support!
