This week marked a major milestone in my journey to better health. My scale broke me through the 50 pounds lost mark on Monday. I have now lost 50 1/2 pounds since this journey began last March. It is really kind of hard to believe that I’ve managed to do that. I never thought that … Continue reading
Last week was another really busy week that didn’t include an awful lot of me getting off my duff and moving. Most of the week was spent in the studio or running all over the place trying to get stuff done. I did manage to try out the new weight set and was once again … Continue reading
I attended another gem show over the weekend. This was a much smaller show, so there wasn’t the selection I was hoping for, but I was able to pick up a few lovely pieces, though. I am now looking forward to the show in November. Hopefully there will be the number of cab vendors at … Continue reading
At my middle child’s last baseball game, I had another mom ask me about my jewelry. She already knew from previous conversations that I had an online shop so she knew that I made the pieces I was wearing.

I’ve grown quite attached to these for some reason and would … Continue reading
I am getting ever closer to being done with the second version of the PMC dragon. It was incredibly difficult to make the decision to scrap the first one and start over, but I’m thrilled that I did. I have been able to make some changes to the overall design and to fix a couple … Continue reading
I keep thinking I’m going to come on here and post something, then stop and think that I should wait because I’ll have pictures soon of the current custom piece I’m working on. Every time I think that, I run into yet another problem that keeps the piece from getting finished. What started out as … Continue reading
Yesterday we had a late afternoon rain shower blow through here just as the sun was starting to set. It made a beautiful scene across the sky. It looked almost as if some amazing artist had painted the sky. I guess if you think about it, Mother Nature is one of the most accomplished and … Continue reading
I am once again playing around, both with work and with the blog here. I found the latest theme that WP released and decided to try it out. I really liked the look of the last theme I was using, but was somewhat frustrated with the ability to really customize it. This new theme looked … Continue reading
