Good morning team!

I hope that all those with colds and flu will feel better soon. I'm almost back to normal myself luckily.

Today is Monday and therefore we'll start the week with some RAKs, Random Acts of Kindness :)) Fave bomb a shop or 10, make a treasury., a little purchase, some promotion on your social media, anything you can think of to put a smile on a team mate's face :))

Have a great day everybody!

Here is a RAK, please show it some love. Thank You!

It is cooler today and overcast, although I am grateful for the 2 beautiful days we had this past weekend. It makes me wish for spring to get here. I have to get breakfast on the table and go cut 13 frames. Have a Great Day Everyone!

Morning to all

We are having unseasonably warm weather where I am. It is kind of nice but I also am left wondering when the other shoe is going to drop. It may be nice but I am not use to it.

My RAK is don for today.

Hop you all have a grate day

[Former_Member]

Good morning, everyone!

Will return later to do RAK later.

I didn't complete the training yesterday. I woke up yesterday to so much pain from sitting in those bloody chairs on Saturday that I had to take morphine. As you might guess, I ended up up staying in bed all day rather than going up to Baltimore. I called in to NAMI, and they understood. Apparently they had better chairs back in the office, but I didn't know about them.

The good news is that they will let me continue the training in June, when they have the next training session. They're keeping my notebook, which I left behind on Saturday, and I will only have to complete the second day of the training, rather than both days. Apparently they liked my first two
presentations on day 1. So I will complete the training, just not not until June. I have done these types of presentations before, but not recently. So I need to brush up on my knowledge and presntatation skills.

I still hurt today, but not nearly as badly as I did yesterday. I will probably rest another day rather than work on on the computer, which is dead, anyway. We now have 3 dead computers in the apartment, and will have to use our tablets to keepup with the internet. Unfortunately, I can't swap my photos out because those are on a USB stick, and our tablets don't have USB portals. So one of the computers will have to go into a local computer shop, which does not charge for estimates (unlike Best Buy, which does).

Will be back later to do RAKs.

Have a good Monday, everybody!

[CherryPicks]

Happy Monday everyone!

I'm still sick but I have things to do today. I have no voice so I just won't talk to anyone. =)

My oldest daughter turns 33 and my youngest daughter turns 16 today. I share my birthday with one of my sisters also. We are a family of weirdos.

I will be back later to do some RAKs.

[ZingRetroFinds]

Hi All,

Dona, thanks for the treasury inclusion.

Vicky, congrats on your achievement.

Alanna and Cherry, hope you are feeling better soon.

Here is my summertime treasury for today. https://www.etsy.com/treasury/MzY1NTQyMDl8MjcyNzI0NTU3MA/summertime-and-the-livin-is-easy?ref=pr_tre...

[HollyODesigns]

Good morning!! I hope everyone is having a good start to their week. I've got a really busy week ahead......thankfully the weather has warmed up a bit. I'm trying to get all my promoting done in record time this morning. I took a peek at each shop listed above and tweeted an item from each. It's nice to stop and actually look into other shops. This team has some real talent!! I hope everyone has a great day. I'm off to drink a little more coffee and get my work done....

My twitter link is Twitter.com/HollyODesigns if you want to see which item I tweeted.

[homecraftframing]

Alanna, I like going to Micro Center to buy and get my computers repaired. When I got the HeartBleed Virus last year, they managed to clean off my computer and save my files. They also upgraded my RAM which was extra but not off the charts like Best Buy. There is two location in Maryland, one in Towsen and the other in Rockville. I know my way better to Towsen over Rockville, with Towsen you go north on I-83.

[COLDHAMCUDDLIES]

Thanks for including Cuddlies in your Treasuries Vicky and Dona! All promos undertaken. Also visited, followed etc the one just posted by Donna! Life does get complicated with all you folk with similar first names!

Just off to do some RAK's for the Team - having a great time with Philippa: holiday is almost over - the time is just flying by.

Not much else to comment on today, so will stop and go see what's happening elsewhere on Etsy. Oh, there was an article in one of the Sunday papers' weekend magazines yesterday, which I've yet to read. If it's worth reading I'll give you a heads-up if anyone is interested. It's didn't ring many chimes for Philipppa, so am not going to promise - you're all far too busy to read rubbish!!

[ItsSewYouDear]

Good afternoon team mates!

Donna, Dona and Vicky, thank you so much for including my items in your treasuries. All faved and promoted.

Vicky, congrats on getting to the trending page. Wishing you many many sales! I really would like to know more about this trending page, I rarely look at it but I hear many sellers trying to achieve the goal of being on there. Sounds fun and hopefully good exposure!

Alanna, hope you feel better. Glad you will be able to pick up where you left off.

Charity, how cool! Sisters who aren't a twin but share the same birthday! Happy birthday to them.

My thought for today: I love, love, LOVE my repeat customers. Don't get me wrong, I love my customers in general, but my repeat customers truly warm my heart. That's it! Off to do some more RAKs, Happy Monday to all!

[Former_Member]

Good afternoon everyone -

Val: Glad you are feeling better.

Alanna: Hope you feel better soon.

Dona: Thank you for including me in your treasury today.

Vicky: Congrats on the trending page!

RAK done for today. Not much new going on for me today except continuing to work on new listings.

Have a great day!

[RedRiverValley]

Hi All!

Gray and cool day here today too.

Beautiful treasuries today! I had a really busy weekend and am still trying to recover and get back into routine. Have done a few RAKs and will be back tonight to do a few more. I have and order that must go out today. I have been putting it off far too long!

[Former_Member]

Quiet thread today. I have not done any RAKs tiday; I will do some tomorrow instead. Thank you to whoever put me in their treasuries.

Dona, thanks for your suggestions, but those are each about 1 1/2 hours from where I live. The computer place we've been in the past is only 15 minutes away, and they do good work. They also give free estimates. Probably the answer is just to get another computer and trash the ones we have, which are all over 7 years old. We'll see.

Thanks to whoever faved my shop today! I got about 75 faves. A delightful amount. Now, if I can just clear out the crickets in my store, lol......

Hope everybody is having a great day!

Pax.

[910woolgathering]

Faved and pinned both treasuries, shared Val's cow clock on Gplus last night, it got a lot of response.

Will do a few more RAK
