It's been almost 5 months since my last blog. For those five months I've been beading steadily but without my usual fervor...I've been distracted by our new family member ( Cappuchino, the cute little furball above) and dental drama (OK, it's been more of an uncomfortable, seemingly endless inconvenience then drama, but I'm fond of alliteration). I miss the "gotta bead" drumbeat at the back of my mind, but don't have a magic potion to bring it back, so I've been concentrating on three imperatives for the rest of 2009.

1) I will not buy any beads (unless I find an amazing deal that would be
just insane to pass up or I find it impossible to complete a specific project with the plethora of beads I have on hand).
