I had my doctor’s appointment today and they can’t do my hip surgery until January, so I have a reprieve of sorts.  They want me to wear a brace to ensure my hip doesn’t decide to wander again, but otherwise, it’s business as usual. I am kind of relieved because I am really getting into making videos for You Tube and today I got a comment from the A.C. Moore company telling me they liked my video and would be watching more of them.  I have to say, even if it was an automated service, it felt pretty great to hear from a retailer.  Yes, I was using their products, but I only paid $2 for them so was it really in their best interest to waste their time commenting on my video?  Of course in my opinion, it was a great use of their time.  Actually, I was so surprised, I didn’t know what to think.  It wasn’t the first time I had mentioned them or used one of their products, but it was the first really inexpensive product of theirs I had used.  The moral of my story is this. If you want to get noticed for your artistry, the amount of money you spend is not important.  What’s important is that you took the time to make it.  Is that the moral?  Or is the moral “buy cheap, get noticed.”  Maybe the moral isn’t a moral at all.  because  it’s great to have a nice comment on your work.  Thanks, A.C. Moore, you made my day.
