Orders are coming along...
I just heard something that I think means the end of the universe as we know it...Michael Bolton is getting a talk show?
Michael Bolton...
I'm going to go sit and put my head on my desk...
You're probably tired of hearing about *orders* and want me to get back to Pickings and new stuff..ahhh...there is the Catch-22...I don't have time to do it all, so I have to choose - filling orders or making new stuff...And since you nice folks have already paid for these beads, I suspect you'd like to have them arrive before Christmas, right? Hence, I'm working on orders and the rest of ya'll are bored silly...The good news is - i'm making nice headway through the orders and hope to have the majority of them filled through this week...So I should be back at making Pickings very soon!
I forget that some of ya'll are new to the site and wonder what I mean by "Pickings"...I offer 'daily special' beads during the week for instant purchase -
no need to wait on eBay, no need to order ahead of time. They are typically sets that I feel like making, colors I feel like experimenting with, sometimes new frits or new glass (I have loads of bullseye glass just waiting for me to play with, can't wait!)...I call these 'Pickings' as in the 'picking of a blackberry off the vine'...
I've also had people ask me "what's the Bead Fairy?" She's a little sprite who visits my kiln and like the Tooth Fairy or Santa, she leaves me wonderful little beads in my kiln for me to clean and post as Pickings. If you see a picture of the Bead Fairy on my homepage, chances are good that I'll have beads for sale sometime that day...So look for her in either of these two pics (with more to come)...

yep, those are part of the orders that have come in..tonight i'm working on the Blue Pacific orders, as well as other misc orders...Hopefully they'll all be done very soon! I've been sending emails w/ tracking info to those whose beads I've mailed, so you'll know when your set is on its way...rock and roll!!
change the channel? i'm thinking of never turning the tv on again, just so I don't accidentally come across the show..hahahahaha...

OMG!!! He is such a slime!!
I used to work as an assistant at an Entertainment Management Company in Beverly Hills (So NOT Me!) Anyway Michael Bolton was there one day and he was just so yucky!! The way he looked at me made my skin crawl... blegh!!!
I am sure if he does get a show it will not last long! Talk shows are tough gigs. Remember Chevy Chase's show, and is is Super Nice and Funny!

This reminds me of a college football game that I went to a few years ago. As the marching band came on the field at half-time,I turned to my husband and asked, "Do you think they'll do a tribute to Yanni?" The woman sitting in front of me started laughing so hard, I thought that she was going to need oxygen.
Yanni=Greek Michael Bolton
(Apologies to all fans.)
