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.
