A New Love!!


Tonight I went with Sheila, my mom, my cousin Melanie, and my friend Sheree, to Ben Franklin (the craft store) to take a class on how to make beaded watches. HOLY COW!! I have found a new love!!! It was so fun. I am not one that dose all that girly stuff like, card making, cross stitching, knitting and scrapbooking. But I would have to say that I am now addicted to making beaded watches. I have always been interested in making jewelry, but every time I went to buy supplies I would get overwhelmed by all the types of bead, the colors, and the sizes, that I would get frustrated, give up, and walk away. Well tonight I couldn't walk away, so I asked for help to get started. The women that was teaching the class took me around the store showing me the types of beads that would be the best for the project that I was doing, then showed me how to put them together. Once I sat down to work on them it just seem to flow. It is so easy and fun, almost goofproof. I dont know what I was so nervice about. We had a great time and I could have stayed all night long, It was a great night.

Sharon - I found your blog through Sheila's who I found through John's. I am totally impressed and inspired by what you have wrote so far. You are taking on a lot this year and I just wanted to let you know I admire your courage. If your interested I could use a weight watcher's partner? You probably already have one but if not let me know.
