Relaxing day
Posted on | December 7, 2006 | 4 Comments
Today I decided to put aside the paints and the gel medium and pens in favor of beading. I have a project I’ve wanted to finish since Art Unraveled for a friend, and I thought that with Angie coming over, it would be a good day to do it and to get it in the mail with my friend’s holiday present.
I got a lot of beading done, considering I hadn’t done any since August, when I actually took the class! I trudged along and got quite a bit done, and all I had left was the embellishing of it. I started and then found that some of the picot stitching around the seams had come out. I will have to go back and re-do a good portion of it. Frustrated and with tired eyes, I put it aside and helped Angie with her project for the day – disentangling her huge fibers box.
We got through the box and before either of us knew it, it was almost 4 pm and she had to go to meet her kids! The time really does fly by when she comes over. At least today we remembered to eat lunch this week, unlike last week!
I’m exceedingly calm, considering that I cannot get any of my USB ports to recognize my mouse or my printers. I’ve had trouble with my laptop for a while now, but I’m thinking it may be time to really consider another option… It was really working fine last night. I have no idea what happened.
Anyway, I am going to head back to doing some art… I hope you’re all having a great day!

Oh, that happens to me when my friend Joanne and I get together, although we can’t often enough! the beading sounds fun, is that like “cross-training” that athletes do? he he… It’s always nice to go back to doing art after having done something else. Have a great weekend Fran! xxoo Lia

LoL! Glad to hear you remembered lunch! I have trouble remembering to eat enough sometimes, too! Hope you manage to rework those beads soon – I can’t imagine having the patience to even try, so congrats to you & good luck with completing the piece. Have a lovely weekend
Hugs,
