Setting up shop..
The last of the glass has been removed from the trunk of the car and I've put some of it up this morning, but there is still a bit of backstock to haul upstairs...not anytime soon, mind you...but I got my generator/tank hookedup to the Minor last night, and figured out why I wasn't getting any air (I had screwed the C clamp down onto the air hose by accident, its a long story, but its working now)...Cleaned the torch, and have been melting 1/2 rods together to make long full rods to use...a few explosions have occurred, glass flying everywhere, but no major burns or accidents yet...I'm cleaning some clear glass and then will get underway in a bit...
You don't know it, but you like that my computer is upstairs and out of easy reach..you really do...why? Because I don't spend nearly the amt of time on it like I used to - I'm actually getting things done and not surfing so much...and that is a good thing, trust me...The tv is still in the studio, but that's ok, I kinda need some background noise to help me work...but I don't need the temptation of surfing to be right there in the same room...I'm too weak...
So far, I have 4 bracelets ready to post for Friday...groovy...oh, and a few more mini spacer sets...but i'll make more stuff today and tomorrow and we'll have a big blowout just in time for payday...
We hauled the roses and hoses out of the truck last night and gave everyone a big drink...I checked on them this morning and they were still moist, so that tells me they won't be too stressed in the backyard under the trees and shade...they're in buckets now, which means they'll dry out quicker, but i'll keep an eye on them to make sure they don't die...There are 3 roses in the Austin backyard that are crispy and brown...but I bet they aren't dead yet, just sleeping...hard...we'll dig them up anyway, the trellis with beads are still back there, and we need to get them along w/ my exhaust hood...does it never end...heh...
