Silver Anniversary

Just where were hubby and I 25 years ago?? We lived in a tiny 1 bedroom house on Big Lake in Davisburg Mi...Hubby had been laid off from GM for about a year..I was working a full time plus farm job..We got married 25 years ago..
Since then? We have two lovely daughters together..(great for couple that was never getting married or having children!)a comfortable home,have been across the country, motor home or motorcycle trips, we have always done what we have wanted to..no regrets because damn that was FUN..
Happy 25th Anniversary honey!

Day Two Christmas Bazaar

Day one was productive. I did a few how to demos, and made a few sales. I did sell some OOAK earrings, dichroic pendants, and some promo items to get them @ my table.
I spoke with fellow jewelry artists, some just starting that asked for advise..some that want to advance their already fab skill...I am taking in a William Holland Catalog and am planning on attending with someone that I'm aquainted with..YAY~

Thursday is Ladies Night Out...can't wait!

D day~

Today I'm prepping my jewelry cases for a two day Christmas Bazaar at the Ubly Fox Hunters Club. Went downstairs and brought up one case..GOLLY I have a lot of inventory not listed just sitting tarnishing..BLECH
After my Craft Show I'll be loading up AllWiredUp and thegypsyjewels...

Really busy but I felt guilty for not posting! Have a productive day!

Morning musing

I awoke this morning to gusting winds whistling around the house. The sun is shining, a smattering of snow on the rooftops.
The trees are barren of their summertime garb.Their branches a stark relief against the blue sky.
I've been in denial that Winter is arriving, after today I can no longer.
Craft Show countdown 10 days.
Thanksgiving 17 days.
Christmas is 37 days away!
