We are doing well here in Crazy Weather California...one day its warm the next day its wet & cold, wish it would make up its mind. We took our first Bikram Yoga class last weekend, it was fun, I survived the 90 minutes in 105 degree high humidity room, did about 85% of the 26 poses too...so proud, hubby did much better...came home & got sick right on cue, have bronchitis, which my Dr. Thought it was pneumonia at first, but got down graded...doing much better now...Thank goodness for drugs & breathing treatments...
New Beads: got a chance to list some new beads in my shop, more will come on Sat & Sun, including some yummy ornaments...

Jelveh, what a great selection of beads this week. Thanksgiving at our house will be at the beach with 5 of our grandchildren and a few friends. Probably 12-14 for dinner. We are so thankful for everything in our lives. God is good. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Thanks Sue, sounds like a lot of fun at the beach...have a great time...

I like all the details on the giveaway bead. It is a beautiful bead. Thanksgiving will be a quiet day for me, but I have much to be thankful for-food, clothing, shelter, etc. God has blessed me.
hi jelveh - LOVE the tree bead focal - beautiful!! here in canada we have already had our Thanksgiving - yours is so close to Hallowe'en & Christmas!! (nothing like celebrating everything at once!!)
Thanks Mary and Leslie...you are too kind...celebrating everything at once can be a bit overwhelming but also gets it all out of the way too...but I love the holidays, of all kinds, we celebrate everything in our house, from Hanukkah to the 4th of July & Christmas & Thanksgiving...any reason to get together & thankful for ones life is a good thing to me....hope you all have fun...
Hi Jelveh! What a gorgeous tree bead...how clever! Our Thanksgiving will be bitter sweet, as we lost 2 very loved members of our family recently, my father-in-law and my grandmother. We miss them tremendously, but will celebrate their lives by reminiscing about precious memories and laughing about good times we have shared. I hope your Thanksgiving is a wonderful one! :o) Keep up the beautiful work...I always love to see what you have made.

Hey Julie, sorry to hear of your loss, I never know what to say when someone passes, as we all feel grief in our own way, I hope you can find peace with this loss...

Thanks for mentioning veterans -- I am one (four years in the USAF) and my husband retired with 26 years in and was in a lot of hot spots.
LOVE the beads.
Hey Lori, thanks so much for both of your service...I am a child of a retired colonel, an Army brat & I married an Army brat who's dad is a West Point grad, Army colonel, wounded & decorated Vietnam vet...
