Selling Stuff and RCC cancer

So I've found a couple of sites where I can add my art work and have it printed on all kinds of stuff.  I'm giving it a shot and will keep adding more pieces of art work to try out.  One of the sites is called Redbubble.com and another one is Artofwhere.com   It's been only a short while since I've opened my shops on both of these sites, I've gotten a lot of views on redbubble but on Artofwhere I haven't figured out yet if there is a way to track my views.  Anyways, it's been awhile since I've written on this blog but so much has been going on it isn't even funny.  My arthritis of the CMC joint in my right hand is being treated with cortisone shots.  After I had the first one I swore I'd never get another one in my hand .... but of course I did.  But, I did go see another hand surgeon the second time around and thank God it didn't hurt as bad afterwards as the first one I had gotten.  I will need surgery down the road but he wants to keep treating it for a year with cortisone shots and wearing my splint at night but during the days as well as long as I can get my work done wearing the stupid thing.  Bone on bone rubbing is not a fun thing to experience so I'm a good girl (most of the time) and do wear the brace/splint.  Now the other reason I haven't had much time and energy to keep up to speed with online shops, making cat toys and working full time is that my dear husband who was diagnosed with kidney cancer back in 2008 and had one of his kidneys and Chucky (his 10 lb kidney tumor) removed is now battling metastasis of Chucky.  So far he's had Gamma Knife Radiosurgery for two tumors in his brain we won't find out for another couple of months if the radiation did his job.  Then today he started on having to take Sutent two weeks on, one week off for the rest of his live which sucks but hopefully this will prolong his life like the doc said.  These meds are like a chemo pill and can create havoc in your body so we're hoping and praying he will be able to handle the side effects.  So, it's been a crazy year so far, all this cancer stuff started happening right before Christmas so needless to say we've been all stressed out but are trying to deal with it all and taking it one day at a time.

Here are the links to the sites I was chatting about have a look and see what you think!  Comments are always welcome.
