Got an email the other day letting me know I am going to have a picture on the http://www.qualatex.com/ website.(ill update when and what page when I find out) Super stocked about that!! (All I know is its a robins egg blue design I did could be wolf,dragon,or alien head thing)
Kids Just finished with school.
Heading on a mini road trip next weekend hitting up , Bisbee,Kirchner caverns, Las Cruces.With the family.
Found out about a possible grant contest worth 25k for starting a small biz. Give me a like or set up one for your small biz!! http://lovealocalbusiness.intuit.com/sbo Find and vote for me by Name: Balloon Man FuDD City: Tucson Arizona Thanks!
Continuing my biz courses through Pima Community College! What fun and Ive been networking like crazy...Ive been taking balloons to some of the classes as we finish and they have gone over great!
As great as all that is Im looking into picking up another part-time job (summers here are so slow.. no UofA students etc.) until I can start re tapping into the snow birds and students after summer.
well to get the goods here's some new stuff much love to all of you guys who read and comment!!
I really appreciate all the kind words...All of your positive things said makes me want to get better and share the world of balloons Ive found with you all.
You do not have to be a suit if you dont wanna....there's always another route home. (nothing wrong with a suit I have one hope to get more)
Wow I have 63 votes ^_^ up from 10 before this post OO thank you all...I am the top biz in my area code lol the top spot is Wicked grounds with 711 votes or so.
This seems to be just one step away from being awesome zerg overlord balloons. I haven't seen too much of your previous work. Have you dabbled in SC2 ballonery?
I've got a buddy (used to be in same class @ school long time ago) in my hometown who actually started this thing himself, while he was a student in the university. This thing actually got huge and he has a good income from it with several people working under his command. So yeah, balloon theme is really cool and it's worth a shot. GL

But do you sell these or is it basically a ballon maker for hire. Cause you are far to talented for simple balloon dog making.
only thing that would disappoint me about buying these amazing things is that fact that after a few days they die a slow and painful death.
voted and hope you do amazing.
Depends.... Stuff like the dog, parrot, cat, giraffe are all things I can and do make at restaurants (here i work for tips going from table to table)
The arches, and big 3 foot balloons are things ordered for a certain agreed upon amount. I figure out between amount of balloons/helium ill use and charge them a set rate depending on size etc.
Large stuff like my Elvis, or life size panther ,wolf etc are commission based pieces. We agree on a price and I hope I can make it in a timely manner so I wont be losing money.
Hope this helps.
Thank you all for all the kind words here and on the Intuit site!!!!
One day (at a TL meet up) I am going to balloon the event out!!
Just been busy I don't post often ever though all these years and barley over 3k posts.....too bad I can not say quality over quantity cause I've posted some crappy stuff before....
Thank you all for the intuit voted only like 700 more to be number 1 spot lol

Thanks buddy I appreciate the bday wishes =)
Life is going great and still loving cooking. With the way things are looking now I need to save up some cash and I may start a side business doing small level catering or event planning. Haven't decided which yet
I've been reading your blog thanks to the spotlights you've received and been fascinated by the diversity of people who frequent this site. Some things just stick in your mind and, for me, your blog is one of them.
A major event of the season is Royal Ascot, and the main day for is Gold Cup day, or Ladies day where all the ladies where their best hats and the latest fashions. Yesterday was Ladies day and the UK papers have a ton of pictures of the best dressed.
