I Might’ve Lost My Chance on This Christmas Market…

September 2 2025 - Tuesday
Entry #14

I decided to check my voicemails this morning, and I found one for a Christmas market I signed up for. In the voicemail, they asked me if I got their acceptance email or not and to respond by the weekend (the one that passed). In 5 mins they open, so I’m going to call. I didn’t get an email, or at least can’t find one. I hope it’s not too late. There’s a part of me that wonders if I actually want to do it or not. I mean, if I do, I’d need to start heavily making things to sell, meaning I’d probably start making a bunch of little items that I’m not super interested in, and not what I really want to film. But it would be an opportunity to make some money, which I haven’t done since December really.

Well, I just made the call… he said he’ll resend the letter within the next 15 mins, so let’s see what it says.

Yesterday I got my template made, then spent the rest of the day on organizing my shop. It’s really coming together. I’m also happy to get a lot of the tools off the floor and more organized. I really want to continue organizing today, but I should spend more time on my actual projects instead.

This morning I read an entire book front to back (a short book) on dust collection. It’s from 1991, but had a lot of good info in it. As I read, I highlighted sections I want to include in my dust collection video once I can afford one.

My mind is racing with thoughts about this market since I heard the email notification, so I’m going to cut this short.
