Got about half of my orders mailed today. Maybe a little more. Gotta do clings next, since they take so long to dry.

Bought a new toy, which means I will be selling an old beloved toy. (I had a COUPON! It was cheap! I love deals!)

Also bought an ginormous black Sharpie for scribbling out labels on the boxes I re-use. Yes, I re-use just about every box that comes in if it hasn't been beaten up too badly. Probably looks unprofessional to get big orders in boxes with t-shirt info crossed out, but it's salve on my conscience and I've gotten zero complaints. But I did need this marker. I did!

New products coming to EMG! Artists, you can read about it at the forums, or log in to the lilypad to see them. :) They will be totes and custom sets (for wedding stationery sets and the like...).

Woke up last night with horrible, horrible leg cramps and haven't been able to figure out why... ate a banana today, and drank lots of water. That's about my sum of knowledge on cramps.

Also, I have blisters on my hands from the heat press yesterday. Argh!

You do so much!!!

I heard that oatmeal also helps, but I'm not sure in what way...like in water or something?

I always pair my banana with some calcium- which for me is usually a calcium supplement, but if you can drink milk, that works.

I have calf cramps at night regularily, if those are what you mean. I've never figured out what causes them, apparently, neither has the medical profession.

The only help I can offer is that when you do get them, grab the toe-end of the foot, pull it towards you, and stretch out the leg/calf as much as possible to make the cramp stop sooner. Stretching your foot up/straightening the leg will also stop the cramp from starting if you can feel when its about to come, so I almost never get them now. Trying to avoid sleeping with your toes angled downwards works too, if you can figure it out.
