sample from the "flirt" collection that I think you'd look really cute in. The hip-huggers are in.

Happy Halloween to you!!!

Hey, someone told me I have other scary tricks up my sleeve... I have some typo's for the word satin spelled as satan! LOL

Anyhoo, thanks for the kind words. I hope all goes well with my plans...I've been working on them since last spring *gulp* and I really like working out of my home office!

I read a motivating article this week... and 2 days later I opened a second shop! Hah! Go figure
:-P

"Information for Disabled Entrepreneurs

What does it Really Take to Succeed in Business?

Those who succeed in their own business must be physically healthy and able-bodied in order to handle the long hours, stress, and physical demands associated with starting a business, Right? Not necessarily. In fact, an increasing number of people with disabilities and chronic health conditions are starting businesses, and are doing so at twice the rate as non-disabled persons!

Why are so many people with disabilities starting successful businesses each year? This trend may be due in part to the disastrously high unemployment rate among people with disabilities. According to the most recent figures available, people with disabilities are unemployed at a rate of about 70%! This figure is even more staggering when you consider the current economic boom where the rest of the population enjoys an unemployment rate of 2-5%.

People with disabilities and chronic health conditions choose to become self-employed for many reasons. Self-employment offers many the freedom to work at their own pace in an environment that accommodates their special needs. As a person with a disability or a chronic health condition, you may have tried unsuccessfully to find work or you may have found that your employer is unwilling or unable to accommodate your needs. You may be looking for an option that allows you to earn a living and manage your health at the same time. Owning your own business often provides the flexibility that is necessary to those who require frequent medical attention, flexible hours, accessible work space, or other special considerations.

Self-employment presents many challenges and it certainly is not for everyone. But for many people with disabilities and chronic health conditions, self-employment offers what may be their only hope of making a living and achieving self-sufficiency."

There is a lot of truth in that! I suffered a new MS attack this year and am still recovering from the treatments but I refuse to let it keep me down!

Zooooooooooooooooom! :-)
