SHAME ON ME

It has been such a long time since my last post. So much for my New Years resolution. Oh well my list was rather large and with most things I have been pretty good. I have had one big life changing experience so far and that is of my first child graduating High School, and moving out into her first place....really bitter sweet moments. I am so proud of her and at the same time want my little girl back. One thing thats nice is shes still close about 20 blocks or so away...so we still get to see her often. Over the weekend we got our garden all planted. I can't wait till I can have garden fresh veggies again. This is one area of my resolutons I have been doing pretty well at. I have been trying to eat healthier and changing some of my old favorites to healthier versions. I am just trying to adapt a different life style period. I am also really watching where exactly my food and other products I put in or on my body are comming from and how there processed. ( although I continue to smoke cigarettes....but that is an entirely different battle. ) I continue to work on learning new things and improving my jewelry making skills. I have come far enough in my beadmaking that I have started to offer some beads for sale. I have been working with silvered glasses and starting to get some great colors...here's a set I'm pretty proud of ...not the purple and blue hues I was shooting for but they did turn out to be this gorgeous mix of browns and ambers.
