Treats and eats...
After doing something unpleasant, I like to do something pleasant, even if its just watching a bird in the yard catch a bug, or squawk with a foe...so today, after a trip to Austin, i treated myself to a nice sushi lunch...yum...on the way home, i thought I'd pick up a big drink from Sonic and work it all afternoon...only to discover that the Sonic in our town is shut down! It was open just the other day, with no indication that it'd be closing...I'm wondering if they'll be opening up a new one at another location...who knows...it was most confusing and a bit sad...they have good cranberry slushes...
the iPhone has a new download that I just installed and its fantastic! the icons on the page are now moveable, they wiggle when enacted and you can move them to any location, or even to another screen...plus, you can now make new icons of any website you want, and they'll be placed on your homescreen...very convenient...there are some new map features that are helpful as well...I really dig this phone, I hardly use it as a phone, its mostly for email and web surfing...but its still a hoot!
On cold and wet days, the dog just sits outside..I bring her in, but she wants to go out, and then she's too uncomfortable to lay down in the wet yard, so she just sits...must be a drag...I'll see if she wants to come back in...the blackberries seem to be ok, i'm sure they are loving the cold wet ground, sandy soil and pine straw mulch...they better grow like weeds come springtime! or else! I'm a gardener who is not afraid to transplant or remove plants that aren't working in one area...I think these guys will do great, I hope I put them in good sunny locations...everything else seems to be doing ok, even the roses in the shade are growing...they do need to be relocated to a sunnier locale, tho...
Beads beads and more beads..I'm getting thru the orders nicely and took an hour to play w/ some of the reactive glass yesterday...came out kinda mustard-y, not what I was expecting based on the rod color, but whatever...its all a learning experience, and I do like a few of the green beads I made, so I'll try again after I get some nuggets and lentils made...that's all I have left from the orders, and today feels like a nugget day...
