If Trudi draws the latrine, what does the latrine draw?

FLIES!  hahahahahah!

(First draft of new about page)

Telling the time:

Trudi’s Treasures: a combination of responses, thoughts, ramblings, conclusions and maybe an eCommerce site with my homemade goodies. In celebration of 100+ followers, I set up a brand new Facebook page to showcase their work.

Building the clock:

I was barely five and embarrassed. The joke made was about my chalk drawing of a what appeared to me to be a log cabin in the woods – Hammel woods in Shorewood : Daisies of GSA evening camp with a bunch of unknown-to-me females who COO’d and AHH’d over the piece of art the prior evening. I was embarrassed then too.

From latch-key kid to an alleged late bloomin’ baby boomer, I still struggle with response time and quick witted self expression. It’s taken some therapy; and the gut pit burps up more quickly than it used to – depending on the topic.

Over time, I have made gifts and cards for my circle of friends and family. “You should sell these. “ Riiiiight. Maybe I will at some point, but first, I need to learn to market in this ever changing world. To do that, I need a following, go figure, introvert moi. I flunked the personality test; it says I’m an INFJ; and whilst I hate labels – at least there’s some comfort in a warm albeit itchy sweater.

My 3D world is a battle on all fronts right now, Will I share that? Oh probably in six months or so. Until then, Blogging 101 has been a refuge.

Taking the plunge.

Balance

Sunday’s news written on Saturday.

Occasionally I visit the other side of my brain!

The left side of the brain had a ctj meeting with my oh-so-dominant right side this week.

It appears the right side got a little carried away. While Tru-dAceous ™ has a mission statement and has diligently maintained a current and detailed #ohthatannoying inventory, there are more business docs that need “rowed.”

What I am saying is there are incomplete documents (Business Plan, Budget Projection(s) and Operating Agreement, timeline, and an event THIS weekend). I am thankful for numbers: they don’t lie, are solid and reveal certain truths. I’m still learning their language. My dear husband has been in business and owned his own for years. He is patiently supportive.

Ms. Fine Arts Management just got excited. Among other things, I read Holley Gerth’s post on Hurry. Hmm. We don’t need to entertain anxious agendas.

That said, the goal date for the launch of the Tru-dAceous ™ website is delayed. Not a bad thing at all; this is part of what equally yoked is all about. (with my man AND both sides of my brain!) #sighofrelief

Stay tuned.

Meanwhile, take a sneak preview peak on my facebook page for backstage updates, and if you’re new, introduce yourself with a like!

rudaceous rock

rudaceous rock – a sedimentary rock form of course-grained material (uhmmm..SAND). As for me, I’m glad to have a rock to stand on. 

Here’s the definition with cool images of rudaceous rock.

Yesterday, I attended my first ever “gem faire.” Awesome beauty of all the various rocks, gems and jewelry couple with pretty cool prices. Their reflection of light intensified their loveliness.

BTW: Given my last post and my personal situation, I have made a decision: trudistreasures will stay trudistreasures as a blog – for now and continue research.

There’s another amazing rock in my life, my man. He’s incredible. Each day he comes up with a creative way of problem solving. He’s taken a lot of risks in his life and has an approach to life that in 15 years of knowing him, I still learn. He’s no victim, though life has dished him a few opportunities to be one.

We’ll be celebrating 10 years of marriage in June. Yes, the “M” word. My best risk ever: saying yes! Quite a partnership: living, learning and loving (and not always liking).

 

 

 

More than one of me?

so.

You hear about “googling” yourself. I had done this not long after joining wordpress and obtaining this .com url.

All along my friends would love what I created and want me to “getawebsite for product.” I’m working on it and it is underconstruction for the time being. until then dear readers when you search Trudi’s Treasures, here are some gems found.

1. My first discovery was of a jeweler artist in Hawaii.  Cool mahalo.

2. A lady with splendid taste selling her high end treasures in New Jersey.

3. One who is into creation of beautiful quilts in Ohio and another one in Texas.

4. Trudie’s Treasure hutz in Tacoma, WA.

5. Trudie’s Treasures in Orange City, FL.

6. Trudie’s Treasures consignment boutique in Ho-ho-kus, NJ (also on pinterest)

7. A Trudi’s Treasures on facebook.

8. A posting of Trudi’s Treasures “deviantart” online – with pics of cats included~

9. One in SCOTLAND.

10. Treasures by Trudi (another facebook).

11. Trudi’s handmade treasures (fb).

All of the above are not me!

What is cool and endearing in the common denominator (aside from treasure) is the taste and appreciation for beauty, uniqueness and solidarity.

Thankful am i to be a part of the ‘net’ flow of treasures by trudis….as there is truly “nothing new under the sun.”

Thankful for sun.

Stay tuned for my product line.

Truly,

Tru~
