I am new here and have to say that I have learned alot just reading the threads. It was worth paying the 5.00 fee.

I HAVE to share (before I explode) all my good luck I have had so far this month...Not only do I have 9 shows lined up for this month (February), but just the other day I got a call from a dental lab about a job opening (I was laid off from my cooking job Dec 1st). Aparently they saw all the art and crafting listed in my resume and thought of me for the position. Well, I had my 1st interview and it went great! I was told I would be called for a 2nd interview. I am still going to do PC even if I get the job, it will just be extra money for me...I am soooo excited! :)

I am saying a prayer every 15 minutes that I get it (figured it couldn't hurt)

Update:
Had my 2nd interview this morning. All went well. I had to take a bunch of tests, I felt like I was back in school taking a meep test again. They said I should hear from them by the end of next week if I get the job. So I guess I'l have to just wait until they call...boy it is going to bee a long week.
