47 & counting...New Beads too...

Hi all, What is 47, is it just a number? surely it is not the answer to the meaning of life, if you remember that number is 42...47 = I can count 47 things that I am great full for in my life, heck I can count 4700 things that are positive & good about my life...47 = just about the number pounds I would like to lose...

47 = there is an actual group called The 47 Society no joke...47 = I can give you 47 reasons why you should never ever buy any glasses from any Site For Soar Eyes or their mother company Sterling Vision locations, bad service & so over priced & mean people...send me an email if you need more information

47 = I gave away & tossed at least 47 pieces of clothes, thanks to my mom's help my closet is 47 times more organized than it was...

47 = the number of listings I hope to have in my etsy shop at all times check out the ones I have so far...

47 = is a prime number...

47 has many other meanings but so do other numbers I am sure you can find them all on the web...this last weekend I turned 47 years young...I don't feel older, I don't feel different at all in any way...it is just a number to me...we went to Santa Barbara for a couple of days & had an awesome time...it was a great calm happy birthday...I am sorry that the same can not be said for so many people in Joplin MO and other parts of the south that have storms going through again today...sending lots of prayers & good wishes to them all...

and here are more beads I will be listing...

An innocent comment...

Today’s beads are all the result an innocent comment made by Ginny a while back on one of the blog posts, she said simply, you know me I am already working on my fall line…when I had asked the question what colors are you looking for…well there you have it, I could not get it out of my head this week, every time at the torch, every time I reached for a color or an idea jumped in to my head it was all about fall colors, but really these colors can be used any time any where…I hope you like this week’s beads as much as I like making them…& if for some reason you dont like the colors blame it on Ginny...lol

Last week’s winner of the landscape bead is Suzi of Suzifits, send me your address girl…your number was picked by a random number picker on line…ok on to this week’s giveaway, another yummy landscape bead, this one is so very yummy I love the olive & amber shades it, this bead is 32mm along the hole x 29mm wide…yum, to win it, enter a comment in this post…

In other news the Jelveh Designs Key Mandrel is selling well, I am so very thankful for all the sales…

And then there is that small bit of news about Thursday, the day I turn 45…oddly I don’t feel any different than when I turned 30 or 40, I keep waiting for wisdom to jump in to my head, still nothing, I am still a kid, still very trusting, still see the best of everything and everyone first then the other stuff & still have very idealistic views about life in general…don’t know if this is good or bad, but do know Life is good & I am grateful for it all…

Thanks for stopping by & have a great week…

Day with Summmer Girl...

On Sunday we spent the day with my niece Summer girl for her 11th birthday & my birthday which is this week, the big 45...she is the smartest girl and so much fun to hang out with...she is a big time Star Trek fan, so we went to Star Trek again & then we had some Sushi and some Ice Cream at Marinie's...we did some girl shopping too...we had a great time...check out this car we saw in Santa Cruz, it has beads and all kinds of goodies all over it, thousands of glass beads and wood beads and shells, it was amazing...

Hope you had a good weekend too...
