Well . . .sh$t

While I will admit I have not exactly put in a "full-time" effort to relaunch I have been working on it slowly. Total double meaning there because I have only spent a couple hours a day working on it which means at this rate it will take me a month 😅 and also it is slow tedious work. 
I thought a square free site was a good idea. I already have a square account that is already connected to my bank, square is a processor so no checkout hiccups, and I already had an "item library". Now, what I underestimated is how much I hate learning new sites/software, I will figure it out, I will click every possible thing just to see what it does. (it's a gen X thing)  I also completely overestimated the usefulness of having an existing item library because I failed to realize I created that when I got my square reader thru etsy. . . so all those are old etsy listings.😏 Like real old, bad photos, crappy descriptions that include lots of etsy links, like circa 2018 which may not sound old but in the lifecycle of an ecommerce listing that may as well be 1999. 

In light of this crapfest I am forced to reconsider reconsidering etsy, since I will essentially be re-editing the same set of listings anyway, I may as well just renew the etsy stuff where there is a sales history, great reviews and I don't have to deal with sales tax. 😐
