Its the Waiting Game...
Its funny about waiting for stuff...when I was a kid, Christmas could NOT come fast enough...December 1st felt like it was a million days away from Christmas...as I get older, I find that stuff sneaks up on me TOO quickly...like its already July and the Tour de France is going on and Brian's birthday is coming up (he just went in for an early birthday present installation on his car the other day, we're spreading the birthday wealth)...and yet, I'm stuck in the waiting game again...I couldn't WAIT for the new Harry Potter movie to come out, and now its out (and I haven't even seen it yet!)...I just received a phone call that 3 samplers I've had in the framing store are ready, something I've been waiting for for WEEKS and weeks...
and i'm still waiting on Harry Potter book 7, which is only 8 days away, but feels like FOR-EVER...and so, I wait...but I think we might sneak into HP5 this weekend, if the crowds aren't too bad...and I know we are going to pick up the samplers this weekend...it might rain (again?) so we'll stay indoors...
speaking of, my garden is growing, but its overrun with weeds...the recent rains have made everything grow, including the weeds and grasshoppers which are now 3 inches long (ha, more like 2 inches, but still they can carry away a can of soda if its full! no lie! seriously!!!)...huge...my dill is spent, my fennel is rotted and eaten away to nubs, the coneflower are suffering, its bad...and its supposed to rain this weekend, so how can I get out and cut the weeds back? maybe I'll just get wet...it could be worse- everything could be dried up and crunchy...
I've got 29 beads that I'm happy with, 6 extras, about 10 that I don't like and another 22 that I made after watching World of Pop Culture on VH1...the 22 are all the same style, so i don't really count those as 'beads', I mean they are, but they aren't individual...they look great as a bracelet on their own, tho...the kiln is firing up and I'm making more stuff today including Icicle beads for ya'll who have the hardware...and if you don't and want some, that's fine too...they have a larger hole to fit on the silver earring, but you could use them for loads of other designs...I'll see ya'll tomorrow, and you don't have to wait too long!!!!
