A full day and a full moon

Wow...today was certainly a full day. Up since 4:30 a.m. to get the hubby off to work and decided to be productive. I made the cognitive decision, LOL! How many days have I done that, yet found it hard to follow through. Not today!
First I started on a jewelry making frenzy - thus the picture with the fruit of my labor! Washed a few dishes, did some laundry, followed Twitter, checked Etsy, packed and sent 3 packages, went to the bank, washed and vacuumed the van, put dogs in and out, made more jewelry, twittered along with some of my Tweeps and now I am ordering out dinner because I can!

I drove my daughter to our friend's so she can tutor their daughter and on the way home noticed the full, beautiful moon just popping up over the eastern horizon - this at 5:40 p.m. Love the new time change - makes me want to hunker down at home and be cozy.

When I was younger I couldn't wait to leave this area, but now as an adult I have a much finer appreciation for the seasonal changes. I find it wonderous. God certainly shows Himself vividly throughout the year, but season changes are so evident of His work.

The dogs have had more privileges today and boy do they like it! The area where I have placed my workspace had always been verboten (mostly because they can sneak upstairs and eat cat food), but I figured out how to block off a couple exits and they have spent most of the day at my feet. They are so faithful.

So, I have a few more minutes before I have to go pick up the food and I will squeeze in a bit more beading. Another item on the agenda this evening is to list a few items on Etsy and eBay. Won't you stop by my shops and see what you must have? Christmas is coming, ya know!!!!

Whew -- got quite a few things done today





Not the wittiest title for my entry, but it will have to do for this late hour.

It felt good to accomplish a number of things today, even if they were mundane duties to maintain the household. I will make up for it
tomorrow and let loose a bit when I go to Buffalo for yet another doctor appointment. The weather is good and I enjoy the drive. Put in some tunes and I am in my own little world and on my way.

This new obsession I have for Twitter is ending up to be quite time
consuming. I don't mean that in a bad way --- I am enjoying connecting with folks and seeing their shops and talents. Besides the personal aspects of it, I am hoping to get more traffic here on my blog and in my shop on Etsy, as well as eBay.

A few minutes ago I received a tweet from :

http://EcoCreations.etsy.com
--- they have advised me that I was a winner in their quest for 500 re-tweets and I guess that the 500th was me! I won a beautiful chocolate brown wool bracelet! I am grateful ...it made my day.

Please take time to visit their shop and see what beautiful items they have!

Last evening I finally finished the bulk of the work at my
workspace - it was very discombobulated (sp?). All I have left to do is store the beads by color now that the newer ones are all sorted. The beads on the table represent a very small portion of the beads I have in storage. So here in this entry you will note the pics of my beloved work space.

Thank you for taking time to read this entry - hope you will be back to visit!

This is what a vicious rottweiler looks like!

No sleep again last nite...thank goodness for Twitter, my latest addiction.
I awoke late and once the cobwebs cleared from my head I got out in the sun today...sun doesn't happen alot in these parts this time of the year.


Got the lawn mowed, my last perennials stuck in the ground and took a few pictures. The dogs seemed to enjoy being out more today. They are such inside babies that even when the weather is nice they want back in to see their people ASAP after doing their business. But if one of us is outside, they will stay out longer. If George, our lab, wouldn't run off so easily he would enjoy playing fetch...his favorite thing in the world, next to jingle balls and human food.

Well, I have a sinus-y headache tonite so I am gonna call it a night early, hopefully can sleep tonight!
