    Need for Fall

    Tuesday, September 16, 2008, 12:54 AM EST [General]

    Hello all,

    I  haven't  forgotten this place. No news is good news in my case. (Coming to this forum is about as charmed as life gets for me)

    It is still way too hot here to be the beginning of September and the fall season. Ick. And everyone seems rather cranky and irritated. I just cannot believe the nerve some people have. It seems like everyone who came to my sales counter yesterday was set to harrass me and send the store into bankruptcy wanting to use coupons on every item and slaping a six inch stack of photo book refills on the counter and demanding forty percent off the whole thing. "Oh but it's all the same thing!" Uh yeah but this door did not lead to fairyland and this isn't the Goblin Peddler lady! I wanted to say!  But then I would probably get fired. I think I need to start my own business...hmmm.

    Anyway, going to dissappear for a while. Bye.

    I'm baaak!

    Wednesday, April 23, 2008, 08:59 PM EST [General]

    Allo, tis me

    I'm back from my excursion and a little bit worse for wear but I survived all the idosyncracies (fey and otherwise)
    of being put up in strange houses; greasy meals and tests of my wheat intolerance, pouring rain and doggie love
    and attention from the resident canines of said houses, and an almost flat tire from a slow leak that refuses to
    show itself. Ack. And the enthusiasim I had before for house cleaning is gone, pouf.

    But I had some time to clear my head, work on a beading project and spend too much for bargains in a bookstore
    that was closing and way more than I expected in in a fabulous bead store I found. I haven't finished the bracelet
    but I hope to get some pictures posted soon.

    Spring Cleaning

    Friday, April 11, 2008, 10:32 PM EST [General]

    Well, it is starting to get really warm here so I decided it was time to turn my part of the house upside down for some cleaning. One day I might even make room for a real studio instead of having to sit on the bed with a drawing board! And now there is an extra couch in the dining room er, hehe I think the junk lady from Jareth's labyrinth paid a hose call and left some things here for storage er, heh, but anyway.

    I am hoping I will get another project done after I go visiting next week. Alas I finally realized what is really important and decided to quit my paying job. Garage sales and tax refunds will keep me going for a while. It's going to be an adventure.

    A friend and I were sharing some of our old work and I got to thinking of all the slides I have of my own stuff. I wanted to share them but the only inexpensive slide scanner I could find was back ordered for 4 months and well some of the pieces I did back then are no longer in existance (long and painful story.)

    Well, time to go.

    New Felted Project

    Thursday, April 3, 2008, 02:14 AM EST [General]

    I've posted a picture of my new felted piece I wanted to share. The theme was Sun, Moon, Stars and I came up with a celestial dragon. I will probably polish it with a few more details and hang it on my door. Not sure what I will be doing next. Some bead projects might be in order.

    Happy St. Patricks Day!

    Monday, March 17, 2008, 10:13 PM EST [General]

    I know it is a bit late in the day (I've been busy shopping, eating corned beef and cabbage and then I had to work tonight.) But I did not want one of my favorite days to go by without happy wishes. I'm half Irish and I probably still have some ties to folks there but it has been several generations since anyone looked up the lineage. I would love to visit someday. Had the opportunity in college and didn't take it, forever sorry.

    Till the next
