I have recently received updates from 6 of our "30/30 Challengers":
Pat has been keeping very busy! In addition to her two etsy stores, http://preciousmoments.etsy.com/ & http://onawhimsey.etsy.com/ , she has started a new blog; http:// apreciousmemory.blogspot.com. Her challenge has been going well and at times she has found the need to improvise by substituting her "Wii time" with long walks with her husband. Sounds like Pat is making great use of her time!
Theresa has been busy recording her progress on her own blog http://tiltcreations.blogspot.com/. She's found that although this challenge has afforded her more "me time" the "me time" isn't always what she had envisioned! She is most grateful though that this has been an opportunity for her to pickup her paintbrushes again and proud of her work! Theresa recognizes that in future she would make her challenge or goal more specific but is pleased with what she has done!
Teri has allowed herself to slow down and let go! She is living in the moment and enjoying the process of her work!
Kristin Ann is working on her challenge, studying new techniques and pushing herself to step out of her comfort zone and put her newly learned skills into practise!
Michelle is doing well! She's been really committed to putting in the time and on the days when she hasn't been able to spend her 30 minutes she's made up for it the next day! Michelle is really pleased that she has acted on a couple of opportunities that she had previously procrastinated on. She sees her persistence as a great asset!
Ali is still at it and feeling her success in "loose" fitting jeans!
I am plugging away at my sketching and am seeing how committing a small amount of time, regularly, can have a big impact!
I hope everyone will visit these "challenging" women at their stores, blogs and/or web sites and let them know they are an inspiration!

Just checking in to see how everyone is doing today!
Does anyone have any creative places you have advertised that has worked well for you?!?
Thank you for sharing!
Michelle-
So I have still been pushing myself to get more involved and skilled in lampworking, when I realized today is November 3 and the 30 day challenge is over! It's helped me pick up a lot of motivation and I hope it continues!!!!
Okay...what I have discovered is that all of this advertising & marketing takes time! Are there more hours in a day?!?
Kristin Ann-
I'm glad the challenge helped to motivate you too!
I accomplished more than I ever anticipated and I started a blog too!
Good luck with the holiday season!
