Ramblings
- I feel really lucky as I had a couple of beautiful prizes arrive. The first is that Dragon's Eye. It's it incredible! I actually won that from a great artisan Deborah Head. She has a monthly contest and I highly recommend entering. I mean just look at the beauty of that eye! Thank you so much!

- The next batch of goodies have a story behind them. I entered a contest on Facebook where an artisan lampworker, Pat LeGere, was selling some gorgeous beads as well as having a drawing. I was lucky enough to win the drawing and I sent her off my address. I hadn't received anything for a couple weeks so I was getting ready to drop her a line when they arrived. I didn't recognize the address but when I opened the package,I did recognize Pat's work. Apparently they were sent to the wrong person who was kind enough to let Pat know and then send them on to me. I didn't save the packaging but I would like to thank both Pat and the unknown kind person. I feel so spoiled as Pat really outdid herself on all these beauties. I have fallen in love with lampwork headpins and just look at that hoard of them along with the focal, some spacers and a couple focals.
- Wow! Let no good deed go unpunished. One of my best friend's little sisters is an addict. She had been living with us rent free until she was able to get a job. Instead, she up and disappeared for a few months. She finally got in touch with me and wanted to come get her belongings. I told her that she could come over last Sunday to get them. Well she only managed to grab a few so we made new arrangements to finish up on Wednesday. Monday night her new roommate decided that she wanted to come get them then. I told her no since I work the next day. This girl flipped out and tried to threaten me with the cops. She then found out that she would need a court order for the cops to help her. I told her to go ahead and get one and that the judge would probably laugh at her since I have records of all the arrangements made. I think that I am going to end up cleaning up that pig sty once she gets her junk out of there. At least I found a stable home for her cat after she deserted him the last time.
- Just found out that I am going to be sent one of Blueberry Cove Bead's Bead Boxes to play with and review. So excited as they have a really nice monthly subscription service for beads. I had been eyeing it for a couple months so I took the plunge and wrote to the owner asking if they would be interested in a review in exchange for one of their Bead Boxes. I should be receiving it around mid November and I will be sure to share with everyone just what I received as well as what I design with it.
