There is a little robin's nest under our deck. Mom goes off to eat and get water from the pond, then comes back.

Very rare sighting of Micah in my lap. He is such a Daddy's boy. Not my cat, but he gets jealous when his human plays with the dog, so I got cuddles.

Augie is over it for tonight. He does not want his picture taken. Totally ignoring me.

I did promise cats, so to lower your blood pressure for a second, here is Maxwell and Lily.

Trying to work on a necklace. Mental health breaks are necessary, in between mobilizing, organizing, and resisting.

@margotpotter.bsky.social made a great painting of thistles, which I coveted so I made this necklace #beadinthenewyear challege from @allegorygallery.bsky.social

This is probably as organic as I get. Stone, shell, lampwork by Nikki Thornburg-Lanigan, ceramic by Gaea.

I've wanted to make a kitchen sink necklace for awhile. In studying them, the ones I like always have a unifying feature: the same dangles repeating inside the chaos, or else they stick to a unifying color scheme. What do you think makes a good kitchen sink necklace?

Day 20 of #beadinthenewyear from @allegorygallery.bsky.social is to make something based on where you want to go. Did you know Thailand not only has rubies and blue sapphires, but green sapphires! I don't have any of those 😂 but I have these broken vintage clipons and the colors count. Right?

Ceramic from Marsha Neal Studio is always a good mail day.

Day 11 of #beadinthenewyear was to use a luxery bead blend from @allegorygallery so this is a revisit of the bracelet I made with the Marsala kit since I gave that one away. I used some of the Marsala and the Silk Road kits.
