I am a disabled creator, spending my time making things with beads and clay and resin , a 13 year twitter member until realizing it is no longer where I want to be.
This week started off with another procedure. More bad health news and more new medications. Despite all that, I am learning more new skills to fulfill Christmas wish lists for my family. Please meet my very first Christmas Spider.

I don't feel well enough to work and the fact that due to our life circumstances, people are not spending money 0n cute but unnecessary things. But I keep playing when I can and if you know me, you know I love putting things that should not work together with each other.

I'm done shoveling for a while. Not supposed to but since I live alone it's necessary. But once I get in and warm I am playing a bit again. I'm getting better at these. Still in a learning curve but they are so much fun! Annnnd it's snowing again.

Good afternoon , I hope you carve out some time to enjoy it and I hope your Thanksgiving was peaceful. I enjoyed my quiet time simply because I am not yet healed enough to be comfortable away from home. I am playing and grateful we have sunshine today even if it is freezing cold out.

Good morning, while dealing with still working on healing, I seem to have been non stop busy working on family requests. My daughter, daughter in law and 2 grandkids needed things to complete their Halloween costumes, that kept me busy all month. DIL needed new ornaments for bakery decor , on it!

Happy Sunday, the sun is out, google says it's going to warm up tday. I am feeling good today so the question is...housework or crafting? I already know where my instincts are directing me.

It is such a beautiful Sunday, especially after 4 days of non stop rain, and in my neck of the woods we wont see many more before it changes again. I actually felt good enough for a little walk which felt amazing. Now I am getting all my bits and pieces together to assemble some mini plants.

Happy Saturday, another post op appointment yesterday, things are good, even though I still feel lousy, things are healing and doing well. But I am feeling just a bit better each day, actually being more busy creating as I can. I have been posting something almost each day in the new shop. Today's

Happy Sunday, I feel like I have been through hell this past 4 months but finally feeling like healing is happening. Sadly not only has this been rough phyically, it is rougher financially with so much medical supply needed not covered by ins. So I am trying a different shop idea. Link in my bio.

Good morning, well actually noon, I am still just reading the daily feed, just not yet up to posting much, but like to see what your all up to. I am experimenting with some new stuff, kind of sad looking but my first try's usually are, have a great weekend!

Greetings, yes I have been missing a while again. Healing from surgeries just isnt happening quickly and it's been pretty rough, to make matters worse, my third post op appt. with the surgeon last friday, voiced some issues which is sending me for yet another CT scan. But, I am slowly working.

Hope your weekend is everything you need it to be. I am finishing up some work, actually a birthday gift for my oldest grand, her birthday was a month ago but you know, somethings take time, just the beading on this jar took about a month L0L. I am happy to be able to show it now.

Happy Wednesday, I have sitting up and just browsing around the computer today, catching up with the world . Wondering if I can pull up some energy to make something. Meanwhile my cat says enough computer time, pet me! When this didn't work he lay down on my mouse.

Good Morning, I have missed a lot dealing with my health issues. But still hanging on, have my next surgery date of June 9th and with fingers crossed hope to enjoy the coming summer months. In the mean time still playing a bit and hope every one is well.

Good morning, I am gaining in energy and getting some work done, I hope you carve a bit of "me time" into your day.

Good afternoon, too late to say good morning, early visit with the surgeon today. But a good visit and I can tell I am feeling a lot better. I'm playing!

Happy Sunday, I hope you can have a bit of relaxing and pleasant me time. I have been preparing for some surgeries coming up quickly but also trying to fit in some creative time. This piece probably won't get listed in my Etsy until I am home and somewhat recuperating but I am happy with it.
