Kicking and Screaming

I have been quiet again, I know.  But I have been busy.  I have been dragging myself, kicking and screaming into the 21st century of computing.  Okay, it probably isn't even the 21st century of computing but I have been teaching myself stuff on how to get my blog to look a bit more like I want.  See?  New banner, new colors., it was time for a change.

and ....

drumroll please......

I have finally gotten some of my items for sale loaded into my etsy store.  Can I hear a halleujah?   Just getting the photos to show off the rings and bracelets was a bit of a challenge.  Oh but learning how to make them look good and add my name to boot was just golden.   Please check it out as I am busily taking pictures of more items and adding them as I can.  Just click on the link to the right.

I am also excitedly working on some mixed media paints that I just have a blast doing as well as more wireworked bracelets and earrings.   And I am getting jazzed for the upcoming Newport Paper Arts Festival.  I am working on items for the Instructors Show in the gallery there, both of a book nature and painting, mixed media stuff.  Oh it is all too much fun.

And if you haven't done it, think about joining the Oprah online class on Eckhart Tolle's book A New Earth.  You have to sign up on Oprah's website.   Hurry as you only have until March 2nd to load the media player you will need to take the class.  I don't know if I've done a radical shift but I do know that I am enjoying reading it.

And with a new food plan (lots of fruit, veggies, whole grains and organic when I can swing it) I am feeling pretty fine.   

So I wanted to share so good feelings with you and to let you know I am alive...and loving every second.    :-)
