Twisty Rings


Worked on a couple of sterling rings - I love the way the band with the loose silver ring that I'm able to twist around. I think this would be a great idea to do if I was trying to quit smoking. (which I'm not because I've never picked up that habit!-)

They both are hammered and oxidized - and the copper inset on the other one looks better than in this pic.

The Good Ones Are Gone



The good Santas are now gone...... Inauguration day - but I'm not necessarily being political (!)

Way Too Cold



It's cold. Very cold. They say the coldest in 13 years - but who knows if that's right. I'm not believing alot of what's on tv lately. I can deal with either snow or cold - but it's hard when both hit. I'd like to think it's not because I'm older! My nephew and his wife were supposed to come visit this weekend, but luckily they've cancelled. This city's no fun to get around in when the weather's like this, and we wanted them to have fun. Better off coming in the spring, I think.

so today I'm cleaning out my 'mail', taking down some decorations, making a bracelet, and listening to old Blues Traveller songs. I'm trying very hard to accept this upcoming inauguration gracefully, but just can't seem do it, so I'll try to ignore it for awhile longer and keep the tv off.

A New Blog

Okay, I'm switching to this blog format to both inspire me to keep up on a semi-regular basis - and keep in touch with those I care about who ask me the dreaded question "What have you been doing?"


Why is there never an acceptable answer to this ~ or one that makes sense to most people. Or most people I know that ask this! And this will give people the opportunity to leave me a comment or two when they have a chance -


So here goes! Welcome!
