1. Heating pad 2. Extra strength Tylenol 3. Rest The Suncoast Arts Fest was a well advertised, and well put together show. The sponsors were helpful; the show was well organized; the artists were treated wonderfully; and it seemed to be well attended also. Now I didn't get a chance to walk the show, but I did get to talk to a number of artists; many from out of town and out of state. We did have beautiful weather. I had an "just average" show. It's hard to figure out just what people want. I'm not the only one who had the same experience. On Thursday, I some how managed to pull my back. Just great, I thought, right before a show? I did try "Salonpas", and found them to be helpful along with the Tylenol. So, a day or two of rest, then it's back to the studio! BTW: I'll be adding some new work to my Etsy shop and my website soon!

I can't believe that I did absolutely nothing yesterday! Since I am not a mother, and my own mother is out of town right now, I really did not have anywhere to go, or to see anyone for Mother's Day. So, I had a quite, peaceful day of rest! I spent the entire day, in a recliner, watching the "Science channel". It was a cloudy day outside, with the threat of rain. I found myself falling in and out of sleep. **************************************************************************************** I have not mentioned dieting lately, so I guess an update it about due. I have stalled in my weight loss journey. Really, I have not been that disciplined to stay on the "so called" Weight Watcher's eating plan. I miss too many foods that I enjoy. But it is o.k. to allow yourself treats every now and then. Total weight loss at this point is about 12-14 lbs. **************************************************************************************** ...

I had a lazy (much needed) weekend.Relaxing and eating! I wanted to make a warm lemon pudding cake today, but forgot to pick up the lemon pudding at the store, and no way am I going out today just for that. Maybe I'll make it later this week. I did manage to color my hair (finally), and have been reading and catching up on the blogs that I follow. I got an email this morning, that I did not get into a show that I was hoping for in February. A little disappointed, but oh well, keep on trying! I do have a show scheduled for March, more details to follow. My boys Finally, I got around to posting some new listings in my Etsy shop . These 3 are available. Silver dangle earrings. stamped hoop. glass beads. Industrial style earrings Copper disc earrings. Large. with jade and peridot. That's before the camera battery gave out. I can't believe how long these (don't) last! I should get a back up. Waiting for the battery to charge. I have lots more jewelry to photograph and list.
