A seed-like day

I imagine everyone with a blog has been here: reflecting on day one. I never even imagined I would write a blog until I met a chic collage artist named Claudine Hellmuth (http://www.collageartist.com) and her husband Paul (Thanks for the business tips, you two!) Claudine and I participated in an art show this week at the house of my friend and local art consultant, Kathy Gibson. I exhibited and sold jewelry and paintings of roosters. Does anyone know why roosters are so popular? I think there is a possible psychology or sociology thesis out there about this one.
I am in the beginning of starting my home-based craft business called Beaded Weeds. I will root it in my jewelry, although I know I will branch out into the many other things I make. I have posted some pieces on ETSY (http://beadedweeds.etsy.com) and Mikel will assist me in website-making soon. This is not just a seed-like day. It's a seed-like time in my life. How will the seed grow? What will it grow into? It's a mystery. Right now I'm just trying to give it the best soil to begin to sprout.
