It's been a long time


Life is returning to some form of normality now after Dad was in hospital for over 5 weeks. I don't miss the daily trips to the hospital and the headache producing activity of trying to find a park. We are so glad to have Dad home again. Growing old is definitely not for wimps.
I had a dear friend come and organise my work space for me which was great and now my muse feels inclined to return. The photo here is my attempt to make a faux jade bracelet from Dotty McMillan's book "Artful Ways with Polymer Clay". It's definitely for someone who likes the chunky look. Yesterday I spent the entire day in the kitchen trying to get ahead on cooking so I can spend some time out in my work space and play. Today is devoted mainly to cleaning the house so maybe later this afternoon I will get to play. Oh Happy Days!

Hi, Jan! It's good to see you're back. I love the subtle colors you've used. The bracelet looks spectacular with these different textures. I wish I make something so beautiful one day. Have a very nice and non stressfull week!
