I've been away from the computer for most of the day...

I've been away from the computer for most of the day and I have 44 notifications.  HOLY COW.  I've gotta see what that's about.  LOL  I hope it's nothing bad.

I have felt like COMPLETE AND UTTER CRAP ALL DAY LONG.  Headache-y, nauseated, tired... just really not good, all around.  I had big plans to get some stuff done around the house, but I just wasn't up for doing anything that involved a whole lot of moving around.  🙁

The whole day wasn't a bust, though.  I water marbled 20 stones and painted a few more.  I must have been in the zone because I SUPER LIKE all but about 2 - and those two I'm just like, "They are ok."  They are drying now, but I will try to get photos soon.  Most of them are oval-shaped and I only have oval ring bases right now, but I'm thinking about ordering some oval necklace pendants, too.  I have all the other shapes, so why not?

Anyway, I hope everyone had a better weekend than I did.  For whatever reason, I spent most of mine feeling crappy.  Shadow seems to be getting a little sick, too, so that's no fun.  To make shit even more super great I have to be at the spay / neuter transport at 6 in the morning.  I am SO not a morning person, but I said I would help out, so I'll be there.  Unless I'm barfing.  All bets are off if I'm barfing.  LOL

I'm off to see what is going on in Internet land, then I'm heading to bed.  ❤

For a long time I never thought Beyonce would come around.

For a long time I never thought Beyonce would come around.  I assumed she would stay fraidy forever.  But the last couple of days... she's interested in us.  🙂  She'll sit about 4 feet away and watch me pet the other cats.  I always make sure to look at her and speak to her - which used to make her hide, but it doesn't now.  So that's awesome.

Also, I just walked by her to go to my bedroom.  She was close enough to my feet that I could have kicked her.  (Not that I would, but you know - she was THAT close.)  I stayed the course to my room and didn't stray.  I know that if I had made any move towards her she would have bolted.  But hopefully I can win her trust if I just keep... I don't know... not murdering her?  LOL  I'm not sure what she thinks we would do to her, but hopefully she's figuring out that she's safe here.  It's been about a year now!

So, the shade was a lie.

So, the shade was a lie.  I'm pink - which means I'm about to be sick as hell.  🙁

I didn't sell a single thing, but I was not alone there.  No one under our tent did.  There just wasn't a lot of people out today.  I have no idea why it's busy some days and dead on others.

Aside from the heat / sun & not selling anything I didn't have a bad day.  The music was good, the food was good, and I got to hang out with my mom and brother, so that's always interesting.  LOL

I gotta say, hands down, that we are probably the most interesting tent where ever we go.  Mom with her corsets and roadkill jewelry, my brother with his whips and chains, and me with my nail polish jewelry.  Mom seems to have claimed Keith at this point, which is just as well because the art he does with spray paint is pretty unconventional, too.

Anyway, I think I'm gonna go and relax some and try not to feel like crap so I can clean my house and get started on some necklaces.  😃  I am super excited to see how they turn out!  😃

Feeling full and satisfied...

Feeling full and satisfied - thanks to The Produce Wagon's boiled peanuts and grilled corn. MUCH better! I also got some beautiful squash and tomatoes for later!

Also really enjoying David Pope singing "My Girl" - one my favorite songs ever.

The hangry Grumpasaurus has left the building. ... I mean, parking lot. 🙂

Hungry, sleepy, and hot.

Hungry, sleepy, and hot. It's not very busy here. That's a bummer, but at least we have shade.

Heading out to the Anniston Downtown Market in the morning.

Heading out to the Anniston Downtown Market in the morning.  Bringing a few new water marbled pieces with me.  These are LARGE rings - 25mm, which is a little bigger than a quarter.

These are one of a kind, so if you see one that you can't live without - speak now or forever hold your peace!They are not only pretty, but labor-intensive and take a LOT of polish to create.

I got some of my jewelry parts in today.

I got some of my jewelry parts in today. Mostly larger necklace stuff, plus a bunch of stones. Yay for that!

Unfortunately, I have nothing yet that fits the stones I water marbled, but I checked the status of my order yesterday and was told it was almost complete. So, I should be getting it soon. 🙂 

I had some giant ring bases and water marbled the stones that fit them, so hopefully I can get pics put up tomorrow. I'm planning to have those with me at the market this weekend, so that makes me excited.

Anyway, that's what I've been up to. Same as usual - just working, making stuff, and taking care of my animals. I hope that all of my friends are doing well. ❤
