Well CHA is almost here….the biggest trade show for the Craft and Hobby Association that will be held in Anaheim CA. This means lots of extra work and preparation for our most important opportunity to meet store owners and connect with other manufactures to get the pulse of the scrapbooking industry…which has been very weak and faint as of late.

Every year…right around this time my back seems to go out. I'm sure it's associated with the additional stress and workload and having to lift 50 lb boxes full of chipboard and paper. This year is no different and I am literally flat out on the floor with severe back pain that makes it impossible to move or walk, right when I should be making signage for my booth and getting things organized. Yes…I am frustrated.

Having just gotten back from physio I have a bit more mobility and am taking the time to let you know that is why you're not likely to see tons of updates until I get this under control.

Off to my favorite place…the floor.
