Good morning all!
I’ve been away from the blog, and other facets of my internet exsitance, mainly because I’ve re-launched the UBetcha Apparel website and mainly because I had to do some soul searching. I didn’t want this blog to be stagnate, but frankly I haven’t had anything exciting with which I felt like writing about, other than “Story behind the Design…”
I’ve been debating with myself for the better part of a week which design I should start the “Story Behind the Design…” Series with. In an earlier post I gave a brief history on UBetcha Apparel and mentioned I’d write about each individual design, one at a time. Here’s the first installment.
As I’ve mentioned on a few other occasions, I own a company by the name of UBetcha. I just recently started adding the word “Apparel” because without it, who knows what UBetcha really is, and I wanted to have a direction with which to work from as well as towards. Who’s to say UBetcha won’t one day become something more, such as a company that also helps rodeo athletes find sponsors or get noticed, but for now, UBetcha is all about t-shirts.
Okay, so I’m a closet interior decorator/designer. Really. I am! Who isn’t though? I’m working on updating my kitchen. It’s been taupe and white for…well…forever. I’m not going to do anything crazy because it’s such a small space, but I’m going to go a little wild. Robbins Egg Blue, Retro Red and Copper. I know, I know. Sounds crazy. But I’m very sure the effect will be beautiful, and I can build off of the color scheme I already have in the kitchen at this time. Always best to start that way before jumping head first into a project. That’s my thought anyway.
We’ve posted our ad to the AgriBusiness directory. What a delightful find this one was.
I’ve received several comments. Unfortunately, they’ve all been spam. GAG!
On a lighter note. I’ve received a month of free advertising with Power Women Magazine & Radio Show. They needed help creating a vector of their logo, and your’s truely just happened to be checking Twitter at the time. I was really happy to have been able to help them out. Can’t wait to see what it looks like on merchandise. I love being a jill-of-all-trades.
This post is going to be a bit all over. I have lots of thoughts, but nothing for an entire blog post. Although, who said an entire blog post can’t be just one paragraph. I’m sure there’s no real rule as far as “length of blog post” and the blog police picking you up and handing you a whopping huge ticket for a “too short in a mini skirt” blog post. Yes, I fear, I’m rambling.
I really hate to waste things. Sort of makes me want to cry. Unfortunately, as far as food is concerned, it’s difficult to know when something is safe to eat or it’s better to throw it out. Things in the fridge, I throw when they get a couple weeks past their “Use by date…”. All of those “Use by date…” and “Sell by date” can sometimes be confusing. So I did a google search and tried to find a good reference site to help with the issue. This is what I’ve found.
