TODAY FEELS GOOD!

Today Felt SO Good!  It always feels good when you set out to do, what you accomplish to do.  I had 14 CD’s to mail, and again and again and again…I thank U, sincerely. Your support has been generous.  When I first began making the ‘Limited Edition’ CD, I was a bit nervous about releasing a small sample of the songs, yet to be released. I was talking with my musician friend MJ Kroll, and she’s sooo encouraging, and she asks ‘Suzen, how many do you hope to sell?.”  By this time, I had sold 3, and it was the first hour or so that I had released the ‘Limited Edition’….usually things spark quick and die fast…at least that’s how life seems to work with me most times, haaaaa. “6 by the end of the night,” I finally said. That was my goal. By the end of the night I had accomplished that, and I had not actually expected it, ya know…how we are sometimes, we don’t give ourselves enough credit, do we?

In the next 10 days or so, I sold 13.  Last night, another friend of mine had heard of the CD and said ‘SIGN ME UP WORM LICKAH” yes, this is how she talks to me, Drusilla Clappsdale. I sighed that annoying sigh….knowing I would have to now, burn another cd, arrange it like the others etc…yeah, each cd is burned individually, I do it all…yep!!! SO since I had this stack of yellow mailing envelopes ready to go, I added hers in there…and of course reminded her SHE SHOULD REALLY READ THE BLOG Eh? I said “DRU it’s LIMITED, that means it’s gone, the link is gone, the post is gone”………She bought one anyway, she’s quick like that, so of course, I had to be quick on it…after losing sound on my computer Again, and having to mess around with updating and reinstalling blah blah (damn microsoft updates RAPE my computer every time)…

I got up early. 45  Min later I had stuffed all the envelopes, pushed the labels on, signed them, and ….then went to the post office, spent another 45 minutes there, because the lady at the post office had to push in each individual stamp for each envelope going over seas, which was Half of them…that was pretty cool though. Half the cd’s sold, were sold to people in the USA and Canada, the other half were WAY WAY over on the other side. Accomplishment, considering what a procrastinator I am. I really am…I put things off, WAY to the end, til basically I HAVE to do it, cuz a deadline is a deadline…right?

So I just wanted to say Thanks again, ya’ll ROCK, it was a very wonderful feeling to do something, ‘almost’ on time, because You bought it, and you wanted it, and there is nothing better than giving something to someone, who really wants what you are presenting to them. It’s on it’s way. I hope you enjoy the CD as much as I enjoyed the process of creating.
