I’m up late again, sick. Not all that much fun. I’m taking vitamin C and zinc, and I’m hoping to get over it quickly. I’m wondering if I might have to cancel my appointments for the next couple days. I have a ton of new jewelry designs in my head, but I haven’t had time […]

Closed FeeBay Store

July 28, 2006

I closed my FeeBay store this week. Believe it or not, their fees were too high. I went to the Gem Faire this morning. They had wholesale hours in the morning before they opened to the public. I was like a kid in a candy store! I got a lot of stones in fall colors, […]

How many migraines can one girl get? (Should that be my question of the day? Or this?) Today was another jewelry-making migraine day.

Overused Plots

July 17, 2006

Today was near 100 degrees, and it wasn’t much fun at all. I added a bunch of new jewelry to the Lava Jewelry web site, just before the server went down for several hours. Question of the Day: How many obligatory sci-fi plot lines can you list? I’ll start: 1. Body swap episode 2. Stuck […]
