Not so grumpy today...
I've posted some pics from the garden...go see...and some sample of the Troll beads I've been making lately...
I got plenty of sleep and made some fun beads and i'm feeling better...I have a goal of how many bracelets I'd like to get made, and so far I'm pretty close to that total...I'm sure I'll be posting SOME between now and June, they can't ALL go to Milwaukee, right? Exactly...
I made the mistake of wandering thru the garden yesterday, after picking up the mail...I had mosquitoes landing on me the size of 747's...and they bit me...I killed the ones I could (sorry, no zen-love for mosquitoes)but they still got me and I'm feeling it this morning..don't you just love to scratch the crap outta an itch? Me do...I have to find some anti-itch cream to quell my scratching...ouch...
I've ordered a card reader for the Mac, so I can unload my images from the camera...right now I have to haul up to the Dell upstairs and I don't always make the trek (or remember to make the trek) and right now there are some really cool garden shots just waiting to be seen by the world...the conversion to the Mac is slowly coming to an end, I'm almost able to do everything I could do on the Dell...I still can't print labels thru Stamps.com, as they don't support Macs and I've tried running it thru my Windows emulator, but I haven't setup the print drivers yet...they don't list my printer in the gigantic selection of compatible printers...Its not THAT old, how can it be obsolete already? I can still buy ink for it!!!!
I found a 'gift' yesterday morning in the backyard...a little bird was left for us...i have no idea what kinda bird it was, I think it was a small house finch, I know it wasn't a cardinal...the size would lead me to think its a finch...I hope there aren't babies in a nest waiting for it to come home...I hope I don't find any more birdy gifts either...last year we had a lizard gift...I wonder what next year will bring...bags of gold doubloons?

Oh, I forgot - I'm totally with you on the mosquito thing. They get swatted at every opportunity. Every time I get bitten (and they love me, unfortunately) not only do I get the itchy red bump, it always turns into a nasty looking bruise.

If you are bringing those troll Beads to Bead and button, I'll be stalking you for a few! They are gorgeous!
We don't have too many mosquitos where I live in CA, maybe it's because it doesn't rain the entire summer and it's too dry but whatever the reason, I'm happy I don't have to deal with that. The only draw back is we have wild fires because it doesn't rain.
Take care.
