Thursday, January 24, 2008 More than a week. That's not good. But I have been very busy. Just Because I Like to Laugh This is NOT how I pictured a "cheese head". Oh wow, I know that was probably overload, but I love these. Will add more at my next entry. Recent Jewelry So here are some of my recent pieces (not to be confused with Reese's Pieces). Some have starting prices of $9.99!!! (just click on a photo to go to the listing) And this one never got listed because I traded it with that fantastic artist Lisa Vasquez (who was featured in the April 2007 edition of The Annealer magazine) for one of her magnificent pendants. Whoohoo! Go me! I've got more listings to go up, but no time at the moment. Later, though. Some News That is Actually Uplifting Just one more reason (like we needed more… ha!) to love Johnny Depp. (Yes, if it's red, underlined, and bold… click on it J) Tuesday, January 15, 2008 Since I went straight from the office to hockey last night and then didn't get home until around 9pm… not a lot got accomplished yesterday. Normally, Tuesday would be a day (evening anyway) that I could do something (and I do have a very important task to complete) with a couple of free hours. But tonight, instead, it's hockey practice in Oakland for Gabe and a game in Fremont for Monica. New Listings Got a few new things up (click a picture to go to the listing)… Good Spam Someone I adore and admire sent this to me. I get a lot of useless spam. This was not one of those. A  POEM ABOUT OUR GIRLFRIENDS Someone will always be prettier. Someone will always be smarter. Some of their houses will be bigger. Some will drive a better car. Their children will do better in school. And their husband will fix more things around the house. So let it go, and love you and your circumstances. Think about it! The prettiest woman in the world can have hell in her heart. And the most highly favored woman on your job may be unable to have children. And the richest woman you know, she's got the car, the house, the clothes~~~~ might be lonely. And the word says, 'If I have not Love, I am nothing.' So, again, love you.  Love who you are. Look in the mirror in the morning and smile and say,  'I am too Blessed to be Stressed and too Anointed to be Disappointed!'  'Winners make things happen~~ Losers let things happen.' Be 'Blessed' Ladies~~~~~ and pass this on to encourage another woman. 'To the world you might be one person, but to the one person you just sent this to, it could mean so much.' (Thanks L!) Monday, January 14, 2008 Wow! When I look at my list of things I need to do, and I see how many remain it makes me wonder… what HAVE I been doing? So, let me think about what I did this weekend: I made and listed three pieces. I attended two hockey practices and three hockey games. I cooked a meal or two. I started on the kids' room. Worked on SRAJD applications. I went to Home Depot and got some necessary items. I had a date with a friend (these things are important!). Packed and shipped orders. Did volunteer work for MLK tournament. Okay, so all that takes time. Wednesday, January 10, 2008 I missed a day. But I did accomplish some stuff yesterday. My and Monica's Latest Creations Yep, it's been awhile. Let me show you some of them now. Still available (click on the picture)… And then here's stuff that already sold… Okay, even if that's not everything, that's enough overkill for now. And… time to go, so I'll try to check in again tomorrow (now that I hear there are actually people reading my blog… ha ha ha!). BTW, hope you had a nice flight back, Mom! Tuesday, January 08, 2008 Today's Horoscope "One pressing issue is facing you and there's not much point in trying to avoid it. Once you've stepped up to deal with it, you should find that it melts away -- as long as you take care of it quickly!" Hm. Is someone going to tell me which of my 8 million issues happens to be the "pressing" one? Ha ha ha! Family My latest brilliant idea is that I'm making some webpages in "photo album" style. I think hardcopy pictures are a thing of the past in my life, and this way I'd get to share the fun with more people than I could with traditional photo albums. And oops… I'm out of time again! See you tomorrow!!! Monday, January 07, 2008 I know almost everyone has seen this photo, but I think it's HILARIOUS!!! I'm not sure if this one is legit, but it's still funny… Well, the bad news, now, is that it's the end of the day and I have no more time to blog. The good news is that the reason I am at the end of the day with no more time to blog is because I was taking care of things on my TO DO list. I didn't get everything done, not by a longshot… but I'm making progress. See you tomorrow!
