hard to work today

Man it is hard to work today. To be honest I have two days off because my husband had surgery on his kidneys to remove stones (one 5mm and one 8mm... ouch.) So it's been hard to work today. I have made small progress. I had to take a nap before it all. What a crazy day! Just glad my sweetie is ok.

Hope I make something good tonight...

wow it's been too long

Posting again! I feel like I want a whole new blog, it's been so long! I have started to make a little work again and I will post pictures as soon as I can (computer problems.)

I put up a picture of my new bench. It's a mess which is the way I like it... Seriously I can't make anything unless it's a mess. I need lots of tools out and a thousand different materials to work with. Right now I am using Polymer clay and semi-precious gemstones. I really like what I am making. I am also doing a lot of experimenting with acrylic paint and resins. It's so much fun! Happy to have a studio again. I just bought a crock pot for my pickle and an ultrasonic. Hooray! for my studio! Oh yeah and I painted all my hammer handles, they are hot!

Hope you like the new look of my blog...... It just feels weird using the old one. I have two days off in a row so I will be working away. I will post again soon.

Just a quick picture update. This is how much Dale grew in two weeks. 16 more days until we pick him up. Now I would just like to close on our house it's been almost two months and we are still trying to close. Buying a house is so aggravating! Dale needs a place to live people! hurry up! Sorry just talking to the "people" that need to hurry up... anyways isn't he the cutest! looks like a handful to me. haha we can't wait!

Jessica's boy!

yes!! Finally I have my little Dachshund puppy!! He is only 3 1/2 weeks old today so he is still with his mommy but I am SO excited and can not wait to see him. (Nov. 9th) We went to see the puppies yesterday and we just knew he was the one. (he was chewing on his brothers ear!) We are thinking about naming him Dale :) Oh gosh I am SO excited about my baby!! He also has one blue eye and one brown eye (the flash made his blue eye look funny) These are pictures from the breeder at Belfast kennels. She was a very sweet lady. Dale's bum is snuggled up to mom's chin in the picture with all his brothers and sisters. I will be updating his growth as she sends more pictures. :)
