Wow! I got the nicest, most flattering comment at my Loth gallery today. Very nice morning surprise; I'm such a sucker for compliments, even if I have no idea what to do with them.

Have managed to tweak a few of the webpages, including adding a form to the contact page, but have been distracted by making AnthroCon stuff (ooo... pretties!!). Hopefully that package will go out on Wednesday, and I have Friday off for Fourth of July. Woot! With luck, I will be able to re-launch the webpage this weekend. There's really not much left to be done, just product pages and artists pages, which are all going to be automatically generated; I just have to tweak a couple of things on each one from a template.

Must mail packages to Tito and to Lonnie this week, and sit down with contracts once that's done. Argh! Stupid contracts. Really need a better method. Mail sucks.

We got house-type work done this weekend! We discussed a second floor porch, and have decided that rather than putting in a large window in the space upstairs that we have to re-frame, we'll have a door there. It involved much 'what-if'-ing over kids and walling in second bedrooms and what egress has to be to be up to code. That will be done later this summer, no rush, but it's good to have the decision process out of the way. We also got the water tank rigged for lifting and cleaned up the basement to get ready to do water work down there. YAY!! I'm not sure which I want to do more this weekend... water, or webpage? Probably both. *crosses fingers*

Weather has been gorgeous... classic Interior Alaskan: sunny and dry, with occasional afternoon/evening thunder clouds but little actual precipitation. Cloudier today, but no complaints. Would be nice not to have to water the plants. I planted some iris, violets and delphiniums that mom thinned out of her garden. They sat too long in a box, so the iris is pretty sick, but the others have all perked up and look like they'll take well. One lilac hasn't recovered from transplant yet, but the other looks great, and we've got four or five chokecherries growing decently, too. I think they'll all look really neat in a few years. I like flowers. Particularly low-maintenance flowers. :)
