I will be taking most of this coming week off and will not be posting as much online during this time. I just recently lost my grandmother and things have been kinda rough for me. My father (it was his mother) and my husband made the trek up to Pennsylvania for the wake and funeral. I however was not able to make the trip. This makes my heartache even worse knowing that I was unable to be there. I wanted to go but waking up that morning with severe fibro pain and a the start of a new cold, the 8 or so inches of snow was not the best for me.
I can not totally stay away so I will be focusing on new designs and sketches. This way I can take the time for myself. When I come back I will be better than before. After filling the emptiness with shopping for new supplies, once they come in I will be able to start to get to work on all the things I have had planned and never gotten around to. I hope this time off and away from the online world will give me the strength I need to continue. I have a large list of work that needs to be done but I can not bring myself to do as much as I need to right at this moment. My family is my life and that always comes first.
With that being said, I need to take this time to heal my heart and try to cope with the facts that while my Grandma has past, I also have an Uncle that is battling cancer and is in and out of the hospital. So please bear with me while I try to transition back to the state of mind I was before.

Happy Yule
I would like to wish everyone a very Happy Yule and share what I have done on this beautiful day.
As winter takes its place in the season now, I am making plans to spend time Wed. with my family. Since my husband works at Busch Gardens and they have debuted ChristmasTown this year for the first time, we are all going up and walk through and see the lights. We will take in a show which should be really pretty. I am trying to get the bedroom revamped so that one of the things that was bought for my hubby will fit. So this will be interesting as I try to clear 1 whole wall space that is currently taken up by a big 6' bookcase. The whole thing has to be taken out. Then I have to repaint the wall so that it matches everything else... All this for a tv but the tv has to be mounted on the wall because of my rambunctious kitties. The tv we have now is an old tube and the poor thing was the victim of an at-the-time-unfixed male cat... Now the remote doesn't work since he decided to pee on the sensor and fry it. Thus why the new tv will be on the wall, I ain't taking any chances...
As far as my work, I did finally list my Gothic Victorian Choker. I really love this necklace and am so glad I finally got it up. Its so pretty and was done in Euro 4-1 weave in black and red rings. This is a pic of the necklace:
I am now working on a black and pink Euro 4-1, which will eventually be 2 bracelets but not sure if I am going to sell them separately or as a set. I am making them with opposite color scheme, 1 is black outside and pink in the middle, the other is pink outside and black in the middle. Of course doing this makes me want to try and find a way to connect 2 strips of weave so I can make a bracelet that is reversible. I will get pics of this as soon as I can.
