numbers and ice

I’ve been trying to organize my various numbers to figure out taxes. Ben (husband) has been having fun with those numbers- he’s that kind of guy. Below is a map of all the places in the US that I have sold something on Etsy, total. I opened my Etsy shop in March 2006. Ben collected the zip codes, son Julian made the map. Thanks guys!

And I’ve sold to 24 countries-

Australia, Bahrain, Belgium, Canada, China, Costa Rica, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, United States.

He made me up some other charts like the curve of my Etsy sales but I won’t bore you!

Today is a messy weather day. We started out with pouring rain last night. It changed to snow in the night. We woke up to an instantly recognizable pinging sound on the windows- sleet.

We call this slop. It is heavy and messy to shovel.

    Overall, mao looks good, but there seems to be a lot of sales resistance in Idaho, Nebraska, Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota and South Dakota. Maybe some cowboy dolls, rodeo themes, pickup trucks? I hate to see that market go unserviced.

    slop- oh yes, I remember that. From BEFORE I moved to California. (ducking and running, so that you can’t get me on the ear with a slush-ball)

    Cheers for you and the Internet, but not for the heavy slop.

    I love seeing stats like Ben’s map of your Etsy sales. Don’t know how to generate them, though. And 24 countries?! Congratulations, Mimi. Like Paul, I immediately noticed the area of the country that has not been busy shopping in your shop. Interesting.

    I’ll have to get something from your shop so Alaska will be represented!
