Hi I'm new and I want to say Hello

[Suzikitty]

Hello I turned 50 this year.The weekend Of my birthday I bought a 22ft 1959 Streamline travel trailer(an airstream competitor) .My plan is to have it restored in one year . The one year mark will be July 24 my birthday.I then would like to quit my job as a dog groomer and relocate to another town . I want to use my travel trailer for transitional housing .Im not sure where I want to live .I live in Phoenix now .I was thinking of possibly Prescott Az. Ive thought about out of state also.Now that the economy seems to be getting better I was thinking of getting back into doing artwork again .The nice thing is that you can sell on places like Etsy , travel , live anywhere , sell online and ship out anywhere. I dont have everything put together yet but this is so fun and exciting just doing the preparation work. In Juy I will be sober for 2 years so I have so much more focus now and a sense that I want to discover a new life for myself.One more thing I watched that documentry "No Bounds" on youtube thats how I found this forum . So Im hoping I can learn some things and make some new freinds here. Thanks

Welcome to the tribe! What a great birthday gift to yourself! I too am a groomer. I'd suggest still grooming while you transition with your artwork. If you move into an rv park, you could do the other resident's dogs. In their rv or in your trailer. This is pretty much what my plan is. A little grooming, a little art, a whole lot of fun!

Thanks for your reply.It sure is nice being a dog groomer because you can take on the road wherever you go or work for a shop.Do you sell your artwork or show it anywhere?
