First Blog on Shopify site (Pre launch)

So, when I come into my studio sometimes it takes me a while to get into the swing of things.  I know it isn't normal to be worn out with brain fog a lot of times.  My theory is all the unresolved stuff in the back of my mind and the work I need to do on top of it.  It is hard not to go into a negative mindset but I manage to not lately.  But it takes effort.  I wanted to start my studio session off with this blog but what I am really doing in the studio today is working on nutcrackers.  I tend to wander around Easton a lot.  During this time I think and try and get my brain to slow down which as I think of it is kind of redundant.  But I am usually hyped up from the drive from nazareth and still have to gather my thoughts.  So basically I sit and meditate and get the worry out at the same time.  This is my life.  Constant battle with Anxiety.  The depression comes later when I can't get things done.  But for now this blog as I always say serves as a centering.  A way to get my thoughts straight so I can move on to the next task.  I am still from time to time posting on my "podcast" if you will. Which will serve me better later as to produce other videos and podcasts.  A predecessor if you will.  But the truth of it all is I do too many things right now to do anything consistently other than my actual art pieces.  Which is the main focus with my endeavors right now.  

I of course want to write more going into the future which is the reason for my blogs and getting my Shopify site together is what I am doing as I write right now.  So I am killing two birds with one stone.  I have to transfer my other blogs over to this site.  The other site will then be shut down as Square did not meet my expectations.  Shopify does.  

I'll have an add soon for the new batch of Nutcrackers I have coming out in October 2024.

I need to get on to something else right now but will return to this blog later.

So I am back and I did some work on Shopify and I also did some other stuff.  I think this is all gonna work out I gotta tell ya the new site is way easy to use compared to square and yea it should be good.  

I still want to touch on Mental Health Awareness and I need to design a new Tshirt for the upcoming year.  I gotta tell ya the wheels do not stop turning in the world of Wilsonart.  Is what it is.  I live for this.  So anyway i wanted to touch base again before I pack it in for the night.  I will be putting another Skateboard in the Barber shop.  That is The Keystone in Easton.  I have one in there now so when that happens I will have two on display there.  Anything to boost sales and advertise.  All this has really been fun for me and I do not plan on stopping.  Once again I will be transferring a bunch of stuff from the old "new" site and will be ending that one along with my Mark T. Wilson Facebook page by the end of the year.  To you guys it may seem i am not getting anywhere but believe me sorting this stuff out is definitely getting somewhere.  I have my board pusher hooked to shopify so I will be advertising for that soon.  I need to hook etsy up to it but it is gonna cost me and I need to end my website before I can do that.

So that is that for today and also for my first pre-launch post on my Shopify site.

Until next time.
