I am waiting for some business. Unfortunately I'm lacking a camera to take pictures of the things that i make...

I am very excited to share with all of you that I have things to sell with everyone here on FA!! In a few days i will actually have pictures to post, but until then I'll just give the reminder that I am open for commissions!!!!! I can crochet and i am looking for people who would wear collars made of soft yarn. I am going to put a focus on my collars of course.

My first option for sale is the cute Cotton Candy Collar. it is about an inch and a half wide and it is sized as a medium. The button used to clasp the collar closed is an adorable pink heart.

I also make scarves. So, of course i have a few in stock. I have solids with pockets. I am working on modifying the pockets into paw pockets. I also have Scrap Square Scarves. I don't like to throw away the left over sections of yarn that aren't big enough for anything. So what better way is there than to make squares out of the scraps and sew them together???

You can also get bags or purses from me. With a crochet bag, you can at least wash it, but gentle cycle only. When i have been able to snag a good camera I'll put more description into them. I have about three different ones that i am working on.

Now up to the largest of them all, BLANKETS!!!!! I love having blankets, and working on them really warms your lap. Baby blankets are the best because the yarn is so soft. I have about a million ideas for blankets, so if you are interested in one, just let me know.

This is only a small taste of the things that i can make, to learn more contact me at jstro306@yahoo.com. You can send me a note here as well, or even comment right on this journal and i will get back to you.

Thank you for your time! SeraiWolf~ (AKA, J. Beans)

# I HAGGLE!!!!!!

I have no proper way to describe getting three feet of snow in less than 24 hours. My driveway is 100 feet long and i had to shovel the whole thing by myself in order to get it dug out. I spent about 12 hours in the snow yesterday and the day before. We finally dug out, but it sure was tough...I've never had a light snow living in the mid west...I'm still on the search for a job with little success, but I've had a glimmer of hope so my energy has been renewed! Now i just need to figure out how on earth i can make up a resume without feeling like i'm lying. I'm a proud wolf...I can't share something false with people.

with that being said, I am opening Commissions of sorts...Crochet scarves, blankets, belts, ect. I also have a collection of vhs tapes for sale (all disney films). If you are looking for something just let me know and we'll set something up.

Small croshet items will be cost of materials plus $10 and shipping. baby blankets will be the cost of materals and $15 to $20 plus shipping. Contact me with specifications for quotes and any questions. I can do just about anything, and if it is a smaller project then it is even better. Large projects will take more time. Also keep in mind that i can only check my messages about once a week. I will get to everyone as soon as i can.

the vhs tapes will go for about four dollars plus shipping.

E-mail me at jstro306[at]yahoo.com with your questions if you can't get a hold of me here.

Ok, so i haven't been on in a month in a half or so. I've missed all of you here at FA, but unfortunately i was way too busy to go onto any web page other than facebook. In September my Grandfather and mentor was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at stage four. A little over a month a go, the cancer took him from me. Now that everything has calmed down i am able to try to get my life back in order...somewhat. I am not returning to class this semester and am looking for a job currently.
My grandfather was the most important person in my life and i now have to spend my next two weeks working on a memorial dvd for his brother and sister because my uncle screwed up...again. with that being said I'm going to get to work on it before i piss myself off about it all over again because the wolf in me wants to rip out his throat for playing the embarrassment that he had put together by some stranger.

I've been on my computer for what seems like forever...turns out forever is only an hour and a half. I'm so bored of gaia and facebook. I've been trying to practice my drawing skills, but once again I am reminded that i have absolutely no talent unless i use someone elses work to refference...I have a few good things that i need to scan into my computer, but i'm too lazy to get up and the house is no longer my own.
I did manage to make some headway on figuring out my fursona, but i still don't have someone to commission a suit from. My issue with figuring out my fursona was the fact that i had two different wolves in my head and i finally realized that last night. So now i have Rose and Serai to finish figuring out.
With that being said i need to get back to decorating my house for christmas. this should have been done two days ago...sad thing is i won't actually be done until friday when my mate can come over and help me decorate the tree.
Sayonara for now:)

I'm considering making all of my friends into furry creatures...I'm not sure how it will go though seeing as the majority of my friends are not furries. Anyways, I do have a story that i am going to start posting called the tale of her tail. it is kind of a fan fic of Spice and wolf. the main character is similar to Horo and also wishes to return to the north to her home, but there is more to it and there is no real educational aspect in the story.
With that being said, I am going to get some work done on my story and i'm going to find some food for my belly.

SO, this past weekend was my first experience with a fur con. I've been to five anime con's and didn't expect what i got out of MFF at all. With a con like ACen most of the people that you encounter aren't really all that nice or friendly. Out of every two hundred people you run into or walk past, maybe seven of them will communicate with you in some way. I've only made friends with people and actually hung out with them outside of the con once. I'm not really close to them, and I didn't even get to hang out with them the next year...granted that following con was insane, but I've actually lost a lot of my passion for anime cons. The size itself has really ruined things for me.

The difference that I noticed with MFF was that EVERYONE is nice and the ratio of people that communicate with you are greater than that of an anime con...Even though i didn't have a full or partial fur suit a friendly dog pulled me into the parade. it was fun and i've never had that kind of attention at acen. I even made friends with someone who i will never forget. You did more for me than you think you have Dusty. I also owe a lot to my buddy Toast, without him I would never have grown the way i have in the last week. I had been planning on making a move across the country, but maybe i have a few reasons to stick around now.

Perhaps i can begin to trust people again. That would make my life so much easier...With that being said, I'm going to log off for the night. I'm tired and I have to go job searching tomorrow...I needs moneys...

I'm welcoming myself here on FA, as a total noob. i'm not a new furry, but i am a noob!
