As 2011 rolls in, Alex's Art Loft hopes to see a minor profit, but then again, it's not all about the money. It's about being positive. Debt is only a state of mind. Right? So this year we intend to have Alex broaden his horizons by doing more pottery (he stamps clay with the autism ribbon and anything else that looks like it is interesting) and has learned to cut, press, smooth and roll clay which is then fired thanks to Wightman Road Pottery. He does this willingly (thank God because we are running out of ideas). Alex created new cards:
DC Monument, Cat, Easter Egg, and a Polar Bear. He is also beading hand crafted polymer beads with sunflowers on them to move us into spring.
My husband and I argued over why Quickbooks didn't agree with the checking account. I wish we had an intern who was good at accounting! Alex is typing a Power Point presentation of his business at IvyMount. I never thought I would use the words "Alex" and "Power Point" in the same sentence. He will be 18 in July. When most teens are applying to colleges, Alex struggles to type. It's okay, though. I'll gladly take this "profit." It means so much more to me than all of the losses. Perspective is such a powerful word.

That's profit in my mind.
