This weekend I had about a weeks worth of projects that I wanted to accomplish. Did I accomplish all of them? HA! NO! Did I expect to? No☺ I did work on some MORE bee pendants. I am experimenting with colors and finishes and I like what I have so far. I finished a necklace that I think is probably my favorite EVER ..... so far☺ I can honestly say that I have never shopped for specific beads for a specific project (except for a bead weaving pattern I bought.

Which is not a smart phone, by the way, because smart phones are apparently smarter than me and I get annoyed. Sooo, anyhoo, I found the cutest itty bitty Nikon Coolpix s6100 and I love it. So far I seem to be winning in the smart department AND it fits in my purse☺ And since the battery had some juice I took a few pics...  Snow-zilla This is the pile of snow in the lot of the building next to the shop. They have already had snow hau...

I have a really GOOD feeling about 2012. Yep. A really good feeling☺
