and now.... three and a half MORE months pass by!!! in shiny things
I have no idea how that’s even possible, but I am making several determined attempts in several assorted areas of my life to Improve My Lazy Annoying Self, and doing more writing is one of them. ...
It's only been three months, no big deal.... in shiny things
And what’s suddenly pushing me to actually make an entry?? A long long overdue entry in my very very neglected Prosebox? Which I really do miss, despite totally ignoring it for, like, EVER?? Beca...
After months of work-overload, suddenly it’s…quiet. Really quiet. May graduates are either done and gone, or they still have shortages that they are currently ignoring so they aren’t bombarding m...
Advanced Boredom Currents in shiny things
Apparently someone broke Banner, and all of our Vital Operating Systems are down. And have been down all day, and are not expected to return anytime soon. Which means… I can not do one single thi...
making the jewelry public in shiny things
I can’t figure out how this is showing up - if at all – but I just make a book public that I’d had on private: https://www.prosebox.net/book/14524/ I’ve recently been stricken with Jewelry Madnes...
catch-up, with all the stuff I did in jewelry class in jewelry
Naturally I’ve lapsed in keeping track of my jewelry-makings. My class is over, but I plan to take the advanced class in the fall. You get to design your own projects for the advanced class!!! We...
That home survey that's going around (or was, ages ago) in survey time
Want to write, need to write, not inspired to write. What’s the answer to that?? Well, a survey, obviously. I’ve seen bunches I like lately but oddly I don’t usually do them immediately. I wait a...
RIP, Simon in shiny things
First of all, my dad’s colonoscopy went well. He is fine and does not appear to be traumatized by the lack of willingness by the five adults around him to stir up a bowl of jello so he’d have som...
Things I am finding annoying tonight. in shiny things
Ok, I am going to do a “real” entry soon, since I am really trying to get back into the writing habit… but I want to whine. I am annoyed by many many things tonight, and I want to whine, and whin...
Happy Friday Survey in survey time
Wow, two entries in a week- shocker! I stole this fun survey from Krud. He’d trimmed it down and no doubt I’ll trim it even further since it’s about a zillion questions long. You’re welcome. How...
*two months later.....* in shiny things
That’s kind of sad. But I have been ridiculously busy at work, after that little bit of downtime way back in January. All the August and December applications came in and we’ve been working like ...
more earrings and a necklace in jewelry
Today we were off for Adverse Weather (it’s been between 0 and about five below all day, with windchills up to FIFTY BELOW) and I took advantage of it to make more stuff. I ordered some beads and...
We started these in the ASU Beginning Jewelry class. It was towards the end and I was still struggling with my rings, and feeling like the Special Needs Child of the group- so I didn’t finish min...
Then I did bracelets! I really really love the spirals- they are easy to do and I love the way they look. Kim gave me a pair of earrings YEARS ago that are just two sets of spirals and they are o...
First ring efforts in jewelry
The silver ring was from my Beginning Jewelry class at ASU - first thing we did was a copper wire wrapped ring which of course I’ve already managed to lose. Could not have gone far- I put it on t...
la la la la la .... nothing to see here... in shiny things
I was going to finish the 2014 survey that I started ages ago … but you know, I’m just not in the mood. What I am in the mood for is a break from work. I’ve stayed busy for so long that I hardly...
looking back on 2014 survey in survey time
Stolen from ermentrude: {I wrote this last night, and was so sad to have no notes this morning … but figured I totally deserve no notes, I’m never here, I never note anyone else, of course I have...
How long has it been since I've done a survey? in survey time
A very very long time! I borrowed this one from Orange Sorbet- How old will you be in five years? 58. OMG. How in the hell did THAT happen?? How tall are you ? Well, all my life I thought I was 5...
thanksgiving with baker b and the cats in shiny things
Well, just like last Thanksgiving, we’ve spent the day all by ourselves, us and the cats, just lounging around. Because.... it snowed. Yes, November is not over yet and we have already had three ...
late to the party, but how typical is that? in shiny things
Ummm, yeah. Haven’t made an entry in like.. TWO MONTHS. And I thought, OH! I’ll use NaNoWrMo (or whatever it is) as a prod to start writing again! Because I miss it! And I want to write more! And...
"I'm not a helicopter parent, but......" in shiny things
I can not tell you how many mommies and daddies call me this time of year, and start off the conversation by telling me they are not helicopter parents. "I'm really not a helicopter parent!!! ...
more Charleston Trip pictures at last in shiny things
Yeah, that certainly took long enough. Instead of posting a big long entry and then running out of time and/or patience to post more than a few pictures, I'm just going to post pictures. And I sw...
oooooOOoooooo, Charleston...... in shiny things
Finally I'm making an appearance-- sadly it looks like I'm back to my old habits of ignoring PB, just like I ignored OD. Apparently I have nothing to write about....other than taking a trip to th...
seriously, kids. read your emails. in shiny things
I know the university sends you a lot of emails. And reading emails is hard work. Apparently. But. If you applied to graduate in May, please don't just assume walking across the stage means that,...
the current currents in shiny things
Still completely and totally dead at work. To ward off slipping into a coma from the boredom, and to bludgeon the crawling time, a "currents" entry sounds like just the thing. I'm much too bored...
