A long day!

Working on finishing up some new pieces today, although I should probably be sticking to something familiar today since I have NO concentration! Our RGH team is playing at the Minnesota State High School Hockey Tournament in the semi-final game tonight at the Excel @ 8pm and I am just trying to keep busy!

What a week!

What a week this is going to be! Our daughter and her high school hockey team have made it to STATE! They have been ranked #1 in the State most of the season, and won the section final game last Friday. The banquet is on Wednesday, and we have games starting on Thursday, then all weekend, so it will be a tough week to get any work done, but I am doing my best to get stocked up for my upcoming shows! I have a big knot of nerves in my stomach for the upcoming games, but hopefully they will do great, we are so proud of the team! Go Raiders!

One headache down!

My Spinal Tap and the following Spinal Headache are over, after having to be flat on my back for 5 days to get rid of THAT headache. Unfortunately the original headache remains. I have still been working away, just on different things, like wirewrapping that doesn't require constant pounding. Oh, and cleaning silver, my least favorite job!

My Pods!!

Well would you look at what showed up on the Bead and Button Show website today.... a photo from last year at B&B of my copper pods! I also noticed that they are used at the beginning of this years class catalog! Thanks Bead & Button!

New photos!

So last night we headed to my brother-in-laws to have some new jury photos taken! THANKS RANDY! I love how they turned out! Now it's time to hit the applications again, such a long and tedious process, especially when a rejection letter shows up after all that work! Oh well, has to be done! Here is a peek, then I am off to finish getting my taxes together, oh such a fun week!

Brrr...

It is FREEZING here in MN! I sure am glad my commute only involves a flight of stairs and not going outside into a cold, cold car! Stay warm!

Monday...again!

I love Mondays! A new week has begun, not to mention a new year, and we all get a fresh start. Christmas break is over, which I am always sad about, I love having Kendal home for the week! We just hung out most of the break, watched a lot of movies...and hockey of course. The girls took the consolation game [ 7 - 2 ] in the weekend's tournament, so that was fun. Now it is back to the studio, headache or not, I need to get going on new work and restocking my supply of inventory! Have a great Monday everyone!
