    I am new to forums, but crochet all my life.

    My name is Beate ( pronounced Bay-ott-tay) and it means "Happy One". I live up to my name, because I am truly blessed.
    Wife of ONE husband ( one is plenty), Mom to 6 children ( 3 I birthed and 3 my children picked for me) and 9 grandchildren ages 15 years to newborn. Every month we celebrate SOMEBODY in our family.

    I recently started an Etsyshop with crochet patterns, which I really enjoy.
    I am learning to manage my website, which is no much fun, since after all this time I am STILL computer and internet illiterate.

    I prefer to crochet, but since I opened my shop, it seems I am trying out for website champion. If anybody knows how to set up a website shop and can advise me, I would be most grateful. Woocommerce is in the trash not to be resurrected again and I am not into monthly fees, like those perfect little plans would like me to do.

    I work at night as nursing assistant about 60 hours a week, which I love, but since my husband is terminal ill, I had that terrific idea to make an online business to hang out with him some more.

    If you like to know anything else about me, please ask. I live a very transparent life.
    Be blessed
    Beate

    I am a bird lover too, especially cockatiels. Our's died after 28 years. We have not replaced her. All other birds are wonderful too. We used to have chickens, but since I am working long hours and my husband doesn't feel well most of the time, we had to give them up. it is too hard on the chickens in the winter.
    But we also have 3 cats and one 1 dog, but she is outside, since she can't behave herself like a dog.
