Out with the old...

Hello.  How are you?  Been a while, huh?


I've been going through a transitional phase.  My life, my perspective, events that I can't control, thoughts that I am trying to gain control of...  all changing.  It's positive but not always easy.  The mood swings that have invaded my life with Graves' Disease don't make it all that pleasant sometimes either.  But I have some incredible things in my life that perhaps would not have been possible if it were not for the difficulties.  I have a great love who enriches my life in ways I never imagined.  I have a greater compassion than I ever knew I could.  I am running again.  I have hopes and plans for the future.  I have decided to pursue a Masters in Public Health.  Just deciding that is huge for me.  I have a lot that I want to make room for in my life, for the next phase.  In order to do that, I have to let go of some things, both tangible and not.

In honor of this mental and literal house cleaning, I'm having an out with the old sale in my etsy shop.  I can't separate one part of my life from the other, so it's only natural that a personal story would precede a sale announcement, right?

Just enter the coupon code "OWTOCLEARANCE" and you'll get 15% off of anything in the shop.  I am extending this sale until the end of January.  This coupon will expire on January 31, 2011.

I was diagnosed with Graves when I was 23 and boy was I furious at times :) Don't expect too much from yourself, you are not in control at all. Try to see the humor in it. All the best to you while it's being treated.
