<br />
It's that time of year where we are all rushing around trying to get things done. Just remember, it will all get done somehow, it always does. Take some time for yourself, relax, meditate, whatever is best for you. Remember what the day is for, enjoy it! Enjoy your family and friends too. Oh and don't worry about all the calories you'll probably be eating! Ha! Just don't make Christmas turn into the day after, the day after that and so on! <br />
<br />
Best Wishes!<br />

<br />
It was our anniversary this past Wednesday. We've been married for 43 years. Yep, we are old farts! Haha! When we got engaged we were at a Three Dog Night concert in Phoenix. We got married almost to the day a year later. We have a big wedding with a ton of people there. It was great! What my dad and a good family friend didn't tell my husband and I was that our family friend's daughter was married to one of the band member in Three Dog Night. They were at the wedding. We didn't even notice! I guess you can tell where our minds were! Ha! After the wedding and reception we were getting ready to leave that when my dad and our family friend told us about the special guest that was there. It was Great! Wish we had known sooner, but the guy and my parents didn't want to take anything away from our wedding. <br />
<br />
SO...this Saturday, tomorrow, we are going down to Tucson to a Three Dog Night concert! It sure will bring back many memories for us. We are so looking forward to the concert! I've been singing, "Just An Old Fashion Love Song" all week! lol! Memories!!!<br />
<br />
Have a great weekend whatever you do and have fun! Make some memories for you and your family land friends! <br />
<br />

<br />
It's been really busy around here in the past 7 months. We've had 4 vacations (soon to be 5), helped our youngest daughter and her family move from San Diego back to Arizona, and been dealing with aging parents. We have been busy to say the least!<br />
<br />
The most important task is our parents. We have 3 parents, my father passed back in 1992, my in laws and my mother are all 88 and still living at home, well till recently. My father in law is now in a home since he had a stroke last spring, my mother in law did not want to live with any kids and chose to move into an independent living center. My mom will be going kicking and screaming some day but not now she says! This has not been easy on anyone. No matter how much er try to plan for this, it's still a shock when it happens. I've made a promise to my daughters that I will not leave a house for them to clean out that resembles the back stock of some old museum! <br />
<br />
I have been busy with jewelry making in my spare time. I have many new things in my shop. Stop on by and take a peak. I'll post a few for you here. You can click the pictures and it will take you to the listings. <br />

I call them my celestial earrings. I used a Swarovski star crystal and floated below the moon and stars. The crystals are in the shade of crystal ab. All metal used is sterling silver. The earrings are 3 inches in length and that does include the earring hooks.<br />

A minimalist necklace is just a very simple, elegant necklace. In this case I just added one crystal or a few stones to the necklace. The first three necklaces are Swarovski crystals while the last one is red coral gemstones. You can pick the length on most of the necklaces that I have listed. And you can pick it you want them oxidized or now. Here they are. Enjoy!<br />

I'm sure you all are just as busy. I had to drive into town today (I live 48 miles one direction to my Mom's in Scottsdale), to have dinner with my Mother and sister. We had a great time. However, I think my sister and I were the youngest ones in there and I'm retired! LOL! What the problem was for this evening was the traffic! Okay, so it was rush hour when I was headed that direction, but it's also Snowbird season...winter visitor season! YIKES! Our population more than triples in the winter months. I think they were all head in the same direction on the freeway as I was and to the same restaurant we were going to! I think I'll stay off the freeways for a while, like till about April when they all go home!<br />
<br />
I did manage to get some new earrings made. I will be posting them soon. For now since most of the country is experiencing winter weather, not here it was 77 today, here are a few shawl pins or sweater pins.<br />

The leaves on our trees are turning fall colors and falling off the tree. It's beautiful to see, but a mess to clean up. We only have four trees that do this, the rest stay green all year long. Our average temps this time of year are usually in the mid 60's but it's been a lot warmer lately, more in the 70's. In fact it was in the 80's on Thanksgiving. It was nice! Maybe this is why everyone wants to move here? Well, if you can stand the long HOT summers then you will be awarded the beautiful winters we have here. <br />

I've listed quite a few things since I last listed things here. Here are a few of those listings. Enjoy<br />

<br />
Can I say I've been a bit busy lately? Honestly, I've been dealing with my husband and my mother and their health issues. They both have back issues, similar in a way. My husband has several old back injuries from playing football in high school and again in college. But with his age now the added arthritis and the injury has caused many problems. He actually got to the point where he couldn't walk on his left leg. Had to use a cane in order to move around. The low back and leg were always in pain. They the leg started going numb and he couldn't use it. Lost a lot of muscle tone. So his doctors sent him to the pain specialist for epidural injections. they ended up doing 4 of them, but not any better. <br />
<br />
Now, my mother is 87 years old. She has the normal back issues of an 87 year old. But she also has scoliosis that was never taken care of when she was a child. So now she has that added problem and a lot of pain. <br />
<br />
So...I was taking my husband in for his back injections one day a week and then driving out to Scottsdale (an hour away from where I live) to take my mom in for her injections. This went on for a month and a half. Then in September my husband had surgery. He's still recuperating but much, much better!!! As for mom, she's doing better too. The last injection really helped her. But she's do for another one soon. <br />
<br />
Please take care of your back because as we age we will have arthritis and if you have an injury it will just get worse. Take care of yourself and those around you that you love. :-)<br />
<br />
Have a great day! I will be posting some of the new things I've been listing in my Etsy shop. <br />
<br />

They are made with AAA quality peridot gemstones and a lot of sterling silver wire. Very pretty! The birthstone for August!

It started on Monday. I took my mom in for a back procedure. She's already had 3 sets of epidurals to her back and 3 hip injections. On Monday I was at
the surgical center in north Scottsdale for a new diagnostic procedure for her. She's nearly 87 years old and honestly I don't think there's much more they can do for her. <br />
<br />
Then Tuesday was house cleaning and laundry and
shopping, grocery and errands. Wednesday at another surgical center in
Gilbert, AZ with my husband for his back procedure. He has spinal stenosis and if having a lot of difficulty with one leg and a lot of pain. They have already done 2 epidurals on his back and they haven't worked for him either. The next step is surgery. So that's in the near future. <br />
<br />
Then on Thursday he wanted to
see his parents and since he can't drive, back to Scottsdale to we went, and
it's 48 miles one way from our house. Back over to mom's to check on
her and meet with the young man who was working on her yard, and then back home, (an all day trip). We were gone all day! <br />
<br />
Friday I thought I was going
to create, but I met with my trainer in the morning and then started the laundry, which had gotten way behind this week. Friday night I was FINALLY able to
create. I need to take pictures of the items, BUT it's was cloudy and
raining off and on Saturday. It NEVER rains here! Maybe tomorrow will be a good day. It's still a bit cloudy here and I like to take my pictures on my patio. Love that indirect lighting. <br />
<br />
Hope you all had a great weekend. Have a great week!<br />

<br />
I know I've been gone for a while but I'm back! I've been a bit busy taking care of my husband and mother. Both pretty much have the same thing, back issues. One week I take my mom in for a lumbar epidural and the next I take my husband in for the same thing. So I've become a caregiver to two people living about 50 miles apart! Tomorrow morning I have to go to Scottsdale to take my mom to her doctor. Then on Wednesday this week I have to take my husband to his doctor. Wouldn't it be great if they both had the same doctor and had their procedures on the same day? <br />
<br />
I would like to say though, please take care of your backs! As we grow older we will have some stenosis (narrowing of the spinal column) and causing pain on those nerves. But if you have herniated discs, then it's much worse. And in my mother's case, she has scoliosis that was never taken care of when she was younger so now with the age (87) stenosis, she's in bad shape. I only hope that the injections tomorrow will help. As for my husband, it's stenosis also but also 2 herniated discs. He'll need surgery eventually. But we are trying to get him out of pain and do the surgery later. Take care of your backs!!!<br />
<br />
I was able to create a little bit, but not much! I'll be back later to show you all! Have a great day!<br />
<br />

We've been gone for a mini vacation to Houston, Texas. We use to live there and we went back for a wedding. The bride was Beautiful!!! The Church they got married in was an historic little old Church in League City, southeast of Houston. We wouldn't miss this wedding in the world! After all we were there when she was born! It was really a beautiful wedding!<br />
<br />
We also got to see our old neighborhood as well as some of our friends. We didn't get to see everyone, but we did the best we could. We enjoyed all the greenery! After living in the southwest deserts for so long we had forgotten about the flowers, trees and that you don't have to water the heck out of everything to get it to turn green! It was great! <br />
<br />
I have a few new things and I will be listing them here soon. Hope you all have a great week. <br />

Are you having fun yet? I was over at my daughter's house yesterday for dinner and I noticed that the kids are already getting bored with summer. LOL I remember those days! Thank goodness they only have 4 more weeks and they are back in school for the year. Now my daughter and her husband aren't so happy. They are both teachers and they go back in 3 weeks. Bummer!!! LOL! <br />
<br />

It's been really busy around here and next week we are going out of town again to Houston. Ya, I know, it's not the time of year to go there since it will be hot and humid. Well, it can't be much worse than here living in the southwest deserts! In fact we lived there for 17 years and 2 years in New Orleans so I guess you can say we are use to it. But I was thinking about the difference in the two places the other day. I was raised in Arizona and I learn from a very young age that water is very precious! We have very little out here and in fact it hasn't rained in 112 days now. Bone dry! Our humidity is on 7% today with a dew point of 17%. Not much in moister out there. I feel like a prune! But when we lived in Houston, people take water from granted. It was very hard for me to accept that. But it rains all the time there and people just get use to it. Sigh....<br />
<br />
I've been very busy and have made some new and different kind of earrings. I hope you like them. Here they are and you can click on the pictures and they will take you to the listing on Etsy.<br />

<br />
I hope you all are having a great weekend! I don't know about all of you, but it's HOT here! So we spent the day in the pool. The only way to stay cool around here. It was suppose to be 107 but the temp gauge outside said 110 today. WOW, it's only May 31st! It's going to be a long hot summer I'm afraid! <br />
<br />
I have listed two more pins. The first one has the most beautiful turquoise and green colors. I added two Czech glass crystals to the lampwork bead. The rest of the pin was free formed out of sterling silver. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The second pin is made of copper, a lampwork bead and two Czech glass crystals. It again is a free formed pin. Hope you like these as much as I do. This is really a beautiful lampwork bead. It's made of different shapes of green, purple, lavender and blues. Pairing with the lavender crystals brings out the purples in the lampword bead. </div>

<br />
It's been a while since I've been here. We've been out of town plus dealing with a few health issues with my husband. Slowly getting back to normal!<br />
<br />
So I have been busy making new things for you all to ooo and aaa over. BUT...it's never cloudy here in Arizona and for the past few days it's been cloudy! So what's up with that Mother Nature??? I did manage to get one pair of earrings to list. I do have two new pins to list, but they turned out too dark. Maybe tomorrow will be better for pictures. Here's the earrings:<br />

<br />
We have been out of town for four days. Just got back late last night. We went to sunny San Diego to spend some time with our daughter and her family. We had the best time! The kids were out of school on Thursday due to the fires and the heat. Now I find that a bit weird! I know it was hot inland but they live on Coronado Island and the highs were only in the low 90's and they don't live near the fires. The fires are in the northern part of San Diego. I hope they can get those out soon. It was so devastating to see the news reports. We could see the smoke from the island though. Not pretty! <br />
<br />
We did have fun watching the Navy Seals practice blowing things up on the beach. LOL! Where our daughter lives the beach is right over their back fence. That beach is where the Seals practice. So we got to watch the ships our in the ocean, helicopters hovering over the water, people dropping out of the helicopters, seeing the grenades blowing up sand and the guns going off. WOW! This went on all day long into the late evening. It was AWESOME to say the least! <br />
<br />
Anyway, we are back to our normal hot desert! I have listed a new pair of earrings. I love this pair of earrings. It has three shapes, circles/round, triangles and squares. Love the turquoise and the copper together. Enjoy! You can click on the picture and the link will take you to the listing. <br />

I hope you all have a great day tomorrow. That you are catered to your every little whim for the day! :-)<br />
<br />
I love the beach, I love going to the beach, I love seeing what I can find on the beach. Looks like a caught a couple of teal starfish! I also love teal, turquoise and green with copper. So when I got these starfish in I decided I had to partner them with copper. As you can see they are swimming blow a circle of copper that has been fused together. The way they are put together there is a lot of sparkle and movement. The starfish are Swarovski crystals along with two other crystals complete these earrings. If you click on the picture it will take you to the listing. <br />

This second pair is showing a little of my Irish in me! I used a Celtic Knot Tierra Cast charms and a green cube Swarovski crystals and they are all set in copper. Somehow I think green goes very well with copper. Click the picture and it'll take you to the listing. <br />

I've been working on a special order over the weekend. A close friend to the family had passed away two weeks ago. She was my mom's companion. Everywhere my mom went Edith went. We even started calling her Grandma 2. She has three daughters and when they had a memorial for their mother they told a story about dragonflies that their mother told them as little girls. So my sister and I decided I needed to make them some earrings with dragonflies. I hope they find much joy and happy remembrances of their mother wearing these as I did making them. RIP Grandma 2, you will be missed dearly!<br />

It was the best seminar I think I've ever been to regarding the organization we belong to. Our commodity is travel. Plan and simple! We had two of the best in our industry training us today. These young men are so inspiring! It's just amazing how one young man who is 25 and retired already and retiring his parents now too!!! WOW is about all I can say!<br />
<br />
My husband and I have already taken one big trip last February and are looking forward to several more this summer. We took a Caribbean cruise to Cozumel and in Sept we are going to the Bahamas. We have a two more trips planned in between throughout the summer. One to Houston and another to Vegas. Wish I could be gone ALL summer when it's just so dang hot here. Maybe I can plan it that way next year! LOL! I love my life and retired to just...travel! We never thought we could do this, but someone showed us how and you can't stop us now! Come join us!<br />
<br />
Have a great weekend! Will be listing new designs next week.<br />

They are sassy but elegant! These little orbs illuminate the light, just seem to glow. They are Swarovski crystals in emerald green, just for those birthdays in May. These are only 1 3/8 inches in length and that does including the earring hooks. Not very big but sure hold a punch! You may click on the picture and it will take you to the listing in my Etsy shop.<br />

So I was on my computer on facebook and decided to go upstairs to work on some jewelry. Tried to get on facebook on my phone and it said that it wasn't me and to relog back into my acct. Only I couldn't remember what my password was for facebook. I tried all the ones that I thought it might be and it wasn't, apparently! So I requested a new one from them and I was told that I apparently gave my info to a third party and that's against the rules! What third party??? My PHONE??? So now I'm back on facebook but I'm being reprimanded and can't "Like" anything for 3 days! Unbelievable! <br />
<br />
Moral of the this story...don't let you phone hijack your facebook page! <br />

UGH!Today did not start out nice to say the least! My computer wouldn't connect with the internet. Not sure what was wrong so I turned off the computer and turned it back on. Nope, it still wouldn't work. Bummer! So I turned it off again and left it off for a while. Turned it back on and tried again. No, the same thing, did this 3 times by now. So I checked to make sure my wireless button was turned on, I have a habit of hitting it and turning it off. It was on. I turned it off and back on. No luck! Unplugged the computer and plugged it back in. Checked my modem, it was on. I was a bit annoyed by this point! So I turned to my phone, thank goodness for smart phones, and left a message on my facebook page saying what my issues were. A friend suggested turning off the modem and back on. Guess what? I'm back in business! <br />
<br />
Dang computers! Can't live with them and can't live without them!!!<br />
<br />
Have a great day everyone!<br />
