How to write a long post that won't lose everyone in the blogsphere!

Monday, September 26, 2005

I haven't blogged since last week and...UGH....too much to tell now! Don't you hate that! I think I'll blog about the Saturday evening Engagement party some other time...so you all will have to remain on the "hook" about that one, but we had a fantastic unique time!

Sunday we went to Idaho Springs to a wonderful bead store called Ornamental Resources that I have to say was like a mecca for anyone who does beading or embellishing of any kind. Here's my loot! :

A lot of the musical instruments are going into my "all that jazz" block...plus the lobsters (they aren't crabs, but aren't they CUTE?). Then I've been dying to do shisha (sp?) mirrors and so I got a few...they have a heap of cool sizes and they aren't too expensive...if any of you are looking for resources.The gals at the store were super knowlegable and sweet! So, that's a great endorsement!

What was really funny tho is that my husband lived through all of my purchases until this...I have dry foot issue (I'm NOT going to go into more detail) and this stuff should be fantastic for that. However, he BEYOND balked at the price. Men...aren't they funny!



Today I had to aide at my daughter's school...so I'm tired, but I swear I'll finish my applique saxophone and figure out how to use all my new charms. And I promise when I have more energy I'll go on and on about Saturday night. It was cool.

Oh, and for the grandparents, here's the obligatory CUTE picture of my kids in Idaho springs:



Hey, question for the blogphiles out there...I'm moving from Webshots to Flickr and planning on changing my domain/address for my blog (a big move), however, I'm not clear on how you post from flickr and still host a few of your own photos...any tips?

Thanks for the pix. The kids look just great - I guess they were having a good time. As for the foot soak, I guess Rex just doesn't understand sore feet. Or like me, wants value for money, and they're not his feet!

Cheers, Grandpa

Try Melt for good foot soak that's not too too terribley pricy. LOVE the bead loot!
I love those charms - I have been turning to every shop in Canberra to find charms of musical instruments - I just love those!
