Sales on Saturday covered my booth fees + this adorable baby! If I could live off trading cute trinkets for cute trinkets I would.

Me: if vampires were real would you want to get bitten?

Husband: no.

Me: Wait, so you don’t want to be a vampire?

Husband: I’m Catman

Me:

Husband:

Me: Tell me more about Catman please

This sounds lovely
In Iceland, books are exchanged as Christmas Eve presents. Then you spend the rest of the night in bed reading them and eating chocolate. Sounds perfect to me.

Cat integration level 1:
New cat has been cozied up in my husband’s office for 4 days. No contact with our 2 cats. No issues! Today I’m starting with a scent swap. New cat has been sleeping on this pink blanket so I brought it out for the cats to sniff. Mr. Kitty is acting totally normal…

lol I literally did come home last night, made a cup of tea and fell asleep without drinking it on the sofa (not a great thing to do) I was sooo tired. Today is for spoiling the pets and lazing about and of course stretches to release my neck hopefully.

Btw I did ok at the market.

I’m all set up! Wish me luck today, I already have to pee and I’m just 30 minutes in. 💖🤌😅✨

The truck is loaded and I’m awake. I will however stay in my pj’s until the last minute. It’s going to be a long day and it might be noisy indoors, it’s a big open space. So, I’ll make one more ornament with my coffee and feel productive.

So yeah, if you're looking for smaller shops to frequent this holiday season, and the rest of the year, maybe check out this Starter Pack I made this past week. It's full of people that will actually appreciate your patronage, and pay their rent and put food on their tables.

Ok most of HookN20 is packed up, the table clothes are ironed, the pizza is eaten. I just need to dismantle the pegboard and make sure nothing is missing. I’m so tired. I hate that I have to double and triple check everything because I just don’t remember what’s in what and where.

This is a Thanksgiving miracle. I didn’t even realize I got so much sleep until I looked at my tracker. I went to bed at 8:30 feeling like it was midnight and actually slept through the night. 💖🦃💖😴

The only cooking duty I have today are the green beans. I think I can manage that. So, once laundry is done I’ll take care of the chickens, shower, take care of cats, prep green beans then we can head to dinner.

Still no sign of new cat’s family. She is starting to feel safe here, took a nice long nap and started grooming herself. She also likes this comfy chair. Look how sweet she is.
November 27, 2025 at 1:28 AM
lol I’m not doing enough so I’m posting about it over a cup of tea chips. 😭😂

update
Tuesday - finished pricing, most tags, labels and signs
Wednesday - LOST CAT
Thursday - panic about dinner
Friday - last minute decisions and pack everything up
Saturday - sell stuff
I have 2 days to finish everything for vending on Saturday. I’m just letting you know that it’s impossible and I will struggle to come to terms with it.

Tuesday - do as much as I can
Wednesday - do as much as I can
Thursday - panic about dinner
Friday - last minute decisions and pack everything up

Since I've started here, I've come across many awesome creators and small business owners. With the holiday shopping season here, I figured it was about damn time to finally make a Starter Pack.

Fuck Amazon. Fuck WalMart. Fuck Target. Shop small if you can.

As of right now I’m whole body exhausted, but last night I managed to get 90% done pricing new items and also managed some other odd tasks. I have not yet worked on anything today. All morning I’ve been trying to find a lost cat’s family.

As if I didn’t have enough going on… the sweetest and thirstiest cat in the world wandered into our garage. We will try to see if we can get a chip read tomorrow if there is one, but she(?) is thin and dirty, I think she’s been outside for awhile. Absolute sweetheart. Please don’t cry all night.

I’m overthinking so I think it’s time to make a big waffle breakfast! My 3 cups of coffee just aren’t working hard enough!

Paying the cat tax is easy, but it sure adds up fast! Charlotte takes this very seriously as you can see here. She inspects each bill carefully and with expert skill.
