can't sit still, so go lie down

I can't sit still. It's something my mother never allowed us to do. We always had to be doing something. I of course prefer to do something fun, not just house stuff. So on that day when she shared her germs with me I showed her my new tools. Thinking she'd say what a creative daughter I have. "who's going to wear what you make?" was her encourageing remark. "Oh mommy dearest" I thought. Anyway I got me some new tools. All to do something with the mutitude of beads she had me buy for her advetures. I did buy some of my own beads though. It all started in November when we had that little workshop with Nancy, and we got the bug, and went down to Queen St. the beading capital of the world. I was totally confused, and then we took a class with a lovely young lady named Emma. She made it all look so easy. And look what happened.
I couldn't sit still, so lied down and finished my braclet, must get myself a breakfast table or a lap desk and that would be great to work on, but my macrame board did o.k. too.
Good thing we don't always listen to our mothers eh!

Well the weekend ended as well as it began. Jane Wynn's class was indeed worth the drive from Baltimore. While I didn't finish my projects, I almost did and I certainly fired everything up. It was a great weekend workshop, but then of course I would not have expected anything less from Carmi. Check out Martha's blog to see what kind of stuff we did. I lost the use of a digital camera when Daniel moved out, so I couldn't take any pictures(must do something about that). Any way check out Martha's blog and you'll see. My bezel have some dried roses from my mother's garden. I'll need a few more pipes to finish the garden.

Happy Birthday

Happy birthday to my wonderful son,  it's bee 33wonderful years. Hope this year proves to be the best yet.
