Just breathe, you won’t ever have this moment again.
So here’s the thing people. This week was absolutely crazy! So crazy in fact, that even though I had the best intentions, I hardly spent any time at all on Pinterest this week. I desperately wanted to make time to explore what was possible on that amazing platform, but I simply didn’t have the time.
But I’m letting myself off the hook for it. I’m going to step back and breathe and enjoy the moment anyway. Why so easily? Well, because I wasn’t just busy sitting on my lounge drinking tea (although that ought to have been a good enough reason 😉 – quite to the contrary. I was busy because my phone kept going off “cha-ching” “cha-Ching”…see whenever an order rolls in from ETSY the app makes this sound. Clearly someone in their app development department had the fun, but brilliant idea to make the app chime the sound of an old-fashioned cash register…FUN! Especially when you’re starting out and you can’t wait for the next one to come in 😉
Even my little Chestnut #1 already knows what it means! It’s so cute, when he runs around “good job mummy, you got another “cha-ching” and then he tops it off in the best impersonation of his daddy..”you’re bringing home the bacon! YAY” Now I can’t say if other people actually still use this expression, but in our house it’s quite common. Welcome to our crazy little Chestnut home. 😉
So that’s why about half way through the week I decided to give up on my Pinterest plan this week and instead decided to just breath and enjoy these little waves of orders, because this newbie feeling in this moment when my hard work seems to be paying off won’t ever be there again…
Until next week – and no, I’m not going to try to raise your hopes about next weeks blog topic…consider this lesson learnt. I’ll keep you in suspense – and myself in a position, where life can take me wherever and I can just run with it.
