Ramblings

• Had a great weekend!  My legs had been bothering me so I just took it easy and spent time in my studio. 
• One of the things I made was a pair of earrings for myself.  The rings are from Marsha Neal Studio.  She has the best ceramics and silks/
• I applied to be a designer in a shop where you donate a percentage of each sale to the charity of your choice. Keeping my fingers crossed. 
• Even if I don't get in, I am making up a collection where I will be donating to the Wildlife Conservation Society.  They do great work in protecting so many species that man seems determined to destroy. 
• Went out Sunday evening to make a quick run to store and my car wouldn't start. Called AAA and had someone come out to test the battery. Young guy. He asked if I was a stick and if I was using the clutch. I replied back "of course. I have been driving a stick for thirty years". Talk about egg on my face. Apparently my clutch sensor is getting picky and it wasn't registering. This is actually good news. I was thinking I had a short somewhere and on a twelve year old car, it wouldn't have been worth trying to track it down.   If it ends up being all it is than I won't have to look into getting a new car
• Crossing my fingers. Of course, that means I need to get the breaks fixed and new tires. 
• Found a lump on Kharma's leg.  Took him to the vet and thank goodness it isn't cancerous.  I still need to talk to the vet tomorrow.  Apparently he has what is called a 'chronic inflammatory cyst'.  Have to find out what is involved with it.

• I got into the design site!  I am working on a collection called 'From the Sea'.
