Dude...that crazy-assed Turkey week is here all ready!?

seriously...where did the month of November go???

hmmm....flu ridden, over worked & exhausted got me a little behind in things. Such a pity...I had so much to tell...and lots of projects in the works that I really wanted to share.

But...there just isn't a lot of time.

I posted a picture over at Kat's "Art Every Day" Flickr group of the various pieces I have been working on. My enthusiasm to post art everyday was quickly squelched by the evil stomach bug. Sorry Kat!

Then we had to play catch up! The yard needed winterizing...(you know, lawn furniture in the garden shed, perennials cut down and put to rest with a big blanket of leaves, boat and lawn mower drained and filled with antif-freeze) yuh, that kind of fun stuff!

Lots of jewelry to make & orders to ship. OH the JOYS of Christmas. (seriously...so NOT complaining!!!!)

here's a sneak peak of two new pieces.

this one is for the Wee Ones!

You'll have to go to the shop to scope out the rest. I have tried to create oodles of LOOK CLOSELY and INSPIRE BOHEMIAN necklaces for the holidays!

What else can I squeeze into this quickie of a post?

OH!

My girlfriend Suzy and I hit some church sales this past Saturday...didn't come home with much except for fudge, chocolate chip pumpkin bread, and a sore tummy from the hotdog with grilled onions I ate. PEOPLE...I was STARVING for some real food after that crappy flu thing. OOPS...I lie...I did find a couple of old books for collaging, and some fun vintage jewelry findings....but sadly, there weren't many white elephant tables like you normally see.

What else? Oh went to the FAB yarn store, Pine Tree Yarns in Damariscotta today to buy a beautiful skein of yarn for Maria. We are doing a yarn trade....A girl's got to squeeze in some time for a little fun now doesn't she? Anyhoo, Elaine hand dyes the most beautiful yarns evah! Big beautiful hanks of gorgeous wools....just scrumptious they are!! I managed to pick up a few bargain bits for myself to play with as well.

Well gang...I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving! Wherever you are, whatever you may do....give thanks for the little things. (and the big things)

~big hugs~
