pictures

Well, now you can see what I look like........pic on bottom of blog. I am tired of the look of our blog so I really need to figure out what exactly to do with it?

Hmmmmmm...........had a brilliant thought, mom & I are going to get stencils & stuff to make my studio walls funky! Plus, working on making a valance for both in studio & living room. Mom has also been crafting so I learned by watching her. Her jewelery is beautiful all so! I love you mom!

I hand made a mother's day card for her, that was fun. I am coming into work briefly on Sunday. I have so much to do and my neck is starting to burn so I am switching things to do. It is a great day and I thank Jesus for that!

Too long

Man, I have been so busy during the last part of December, I haven't had a chance to blog until today. Holidays are always busy at day job and then we passed an inspection today! Whew...

I haven't made anything new and I need to get going on taking pictures. I have been so busy that I get home, eat, read and go to bed. That has been my life lately, incredibly boring:)

So I need to get back on track on my New Year's resolution so thus me blogging a little:)

My 300th post

http://www.freefoto.com/browse/90-15-0?ffid=90-15-0

Dang, I talk a lot sometimes. The comment to my last post was an ad....that is interesting. Well, the extra money that I will get by working tomorrow afternoon will be quite helpful.

I am wondering where my creative elf hid out at because he needs to get his butt back into my studio so I can start getting on my new years jewelery stuff.

Funky Monkey Girls are in another store in Tucson:

Artists at Work 2400 N Campbell Tucson, AZ 85719

Now, if these wonderful beautiful items will sell more often, I & mom would be incredibly happy campers:)

If I can't get on here tomorrow or Christmas, have a wonderful Christmas!!!

almost christmas & issues with ICE resin.

I am so trying to get in the Christmas spirit but I just can't. Day job is a scoorage and it is draining not just holiday cheer but life spirit out of me. I am praying about it of course and wondering what kind of lesson that God wants me to learn out of this?

I did put some jewelery in Henry's shop, it is 50/50 so I will keep it in there for 3 months, yes I have intventory sheet and it it doesn't go, then I pull it out.

I am having one heck of a time getting my ICE resin to cure properly this time!!! HELP!!!!

Have a very Merry Christmas and I will to:)

Day Job

It has been so busy that I don't know if I am coming or going or doing whatever!!! I finally put up my Christmas tree at home so it is starting to feel like Christmas. The cold weather is kicking my hips/neck and shoulders really bad. I hate the cold, hate it, hate it, hate it....that is why I moved away from Minnesota.

Tom & I are great and have enjoyed our weekends together. We went to the 4th Ave Street Fair and I was disappointed that there was a LOT of non handmade items out there. I thought this was a juried show?

I did purchase a Christmas present for my mom, I will probably have to get Tom's after the holidays and he will get mine after that as well. I can't get an answer from him what he wants...MEN!

day job computer

I can't get this thing to load any new pictures. I will have to do it at home, very annoying. It is also annoying that I can't leave or even comment to some folks in my blog or theirs. ergh.

It is FRIDAY! It is a beautiful day here in Tucson, the sky is a beautiful beautiful blue and it is a bit cold. I am going to put up my christmas tree on Monday because it is Tom & I's weekend by ourselves for a long time, we are both excited!!!

I picked a bunch of jewelery to show Henry or Harry, I am so awful at names to show him tomorrow! I have to ask what percentage etc that he takes off for commission etc. But that will be cool to have another place here in Tucson:)

I still have some work to do so have a safe and blessed weekend!

busy swamped day

This has been too busy of day....it was pretty awful.

The folks are here:) Tom will meet dad really briefly because he has to get home to pee the dog:)

HAPPY MONDAY!

I had a really nice weekend! Tom & I walked around the mall on Saturday and then got some DVD's GI Joe and Battlestar Galatic, in which I am so getting Tom hooked on:)

Sunday was chilling out and then back to my house I go, getting it ready for parents. I vaccumed a couple of rooms, washed the kitchen floor and cleaned a bathroom. Tonight, I do the rest of vaccumming and dusting. My studio, has a path to get from the door to the tables LOL. I know I keep promising to put these pics on here but after working most of day job on a computer, I don't like being on one at home.

I have some more jewelery on Etsy and I sold another piece:) YEA!! The sale is still on until 11/18 @6:00pm PST. Mom will be here so we shouldn't have any problems building the stores back up.

I am also going to have mom & dad pick up my wedding dress:) I am really excited, I still haven't picked the color of my bridesmaid dresses and I need to get that done soon.

Honestly...

I did take pictures last night of the messy studio. I got busy doing some jewelery and posting it on Etsy when hmmmm, I started feeling really really tired, I looked at the clock at it was 9:30pm, I am so NOT an night owl. So, the pictures will be on here tonight, I promise.

There has to be a full moon cause we got some werid patients going on....strange.

Today

It is a good day at day job because we only have 1/2 day of clinic:) We usually have training or a staff meeting going on which is today.....gee how fun.

I didn't get on the computer at home at all. Tom came over to see if the dead stinkey critter was in my laundry room causing a nasty odor....nope it wasn't...hmmm. I got my dishes down and then when Tom left, I read a book. I should have worked on my studio. I will take a picture of the scary studio and post it here tomorrow which hopefully will get me motivated.....:) Big problem, not in creating mood. It will come back when it does, then the studio will look better or worse LOLOLOL!

Back to work!

I am back to work and going thru my tons of e-mails. My fever finally broke yesterday praise the Lord. I don't have a lot of time so if I can't cover it with leave, then I don't get paid for that day, which will suck.

Well, back to work.

DAY JOB

IT SUCKS..................

please continue with the regular blogging.

Hooray it is Friday!

I am one pooped out person. I can not keep working late because I am going to make myself sick. BUT almost all the stuff is ready for the show next weekend:) Just have to find a few more things and then we are ready to go:)

Have a wonderful weekend!

exhausted

I worked at day job until 6:30pm. I had so much to do even with a sign that basically states leave me alone, I still getbugged. So I stayed late to get some stuff done but I know I can NOT do that all the time...

The trigger point injection went really really well:) I loved my doctor I went too so will update about how it feels.

I made some things that were completely different for me, if I had more energy today, I would have finish them so I will work on them tomorrow!

This Thursday

I have been so busy that I didn't even know what time it was. Was a klutz and dropped lunch on the floor, on me and spattered on a nurse in our break room. Cleaned that up and luckily one of the other nurses was going to McDonald's & picked me up lunch.

What a day!

The week from HE**

You know, just when things can't get any worse, it does. I am getting hit with awful news at day job, life crap, the only thing is that my jewelery is getting photographed well, Tom & I are great and my family is safe & healthy. Those are all blessings.

Satan is being a pain & he needs to go away and I pray that God will bind him, which he will.

sheesh........

Fiscal year

It is fast approaching the end of the fiscal year for my day job. So I am trying to get a bunch of things accomplished! argh........

I am still updating our facebook page so hopefully I won't get as tired as I did last night so I can get it up & running!

Also along with facebook, I need to shoot more pictures for Etsy....but like I stated, tons of jewelery and not on Etsy yet:) At least Tom's camera is pretty good for taking jewelery pictures. I just wish I had photoshop. I am definately going to save pennies for a new computer. My inheirated laptop is okay but I get so frustated with the dumb thing cause it is SO slow & does very odd stuff when you are in the middle of doing things...

Life stuff

I haven't been on the computer much, nor making jewelery much nor feel like talking to people. Doing a great deal of thinking and will be praying on it later, life changes. Not getting married but my day job. I work at a corrupt place from the top on down. I find it increasly difficult to work here. So, I am weighing all options & will be doing some praying on it later. I have enough years in to retire but I am too young....I think it is time to go do something else that doesn't bother me ethically. Yes, I protect my staff when I can but it appears that is being taken away from me as well. Not from my boss or any type of punishment just the way the system is.....

Please pray that I receive direction from God to know where he wants my path to go.

stuff

Too much stuff going on at day job, praise the Lord that I have vacation soon! I pick up mom at the airport tonight then off to bead show here in Tucson. I have a bad attitude today, please pray that it goes away but I am so sick of people that I am going to scream and run away!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

FRIDAY!!!!!!!

Sunset viewed in my backyard...

Oh thank God it is Friday. It has been a very long week dealing with very very rude and grumpy people at day job.........sigh.

I am off to Tom's house for the weekend. We are planning on doing some running around on Saturday then Sunday, it is church. I am PMS'ing which doesn't help ye olde mood either, sigh.
