The last few days have been some tough ones. I've been weepy, more nauseated than usual, and generally down. Today, we learned that my father has a somewhat aggressive auto-immune disorder, that if not treated quickly, can result in blindness.
There was a shooting at the Washington Navy Yard....a place I nearly took a job. Thankfully, none of my 'people' were injured or killed. Praising God for that.
Today, is the 16 year anniversary of my mother's death. She had cancer - unknown origin - with it spreading to her liver and lungs. Approx 11:15 a.m. she passed peacefully, in to the arms of Jesus and the Angels who were there to bring her home. I felt the presence of the angels. I felt the warmth of their presence in the room and specifically over her. Something I'd never experienced before or since - thankfully.
It's been an emotionally draining time....glad I finally figured out what was happening in my spirit. I love her so much and wish she were here - so so so so so much.
See you soon, Mommy!

SWARVOSKI - This is ALL YOUR FAULT!!
Do you know what I did yesterday? Don't do ya....
When I got home, I started doing my 'inventory' - putting things in their new homes with new prices, so I know what to charge when I use them and all went well until......SWAROVSKI.
I held that little bag in my hand, peered through the plastic and marveled at their beauty. I oo'd and ahh'd to myself and dreamed of making beautiful pieces with my new colors of.....SWAROVSKI.
I, finally took my little bag, worked up the courage and opened the bag. I reveled in the twinkles and shimmers. I took the sticker off the bag and found the new little home for these little gems.....SWAROVSKI.
I poured them in, so carefully, watching them flow out of the bag like a brand new bag of cereal. It sounded like little puffs of rice hitting my bowl. And then I sat......and stared......and moved the little container around for all them to sparkle and I sat and sat and STARED at my new......SWAROVSKI (for 30+ minutes).
So, while I may be tired and may be weary, I'd do it all again for another bag of my favorite.....SWAROVSKI!
Look for some new pieces from me, too, featuring SWAROVSKI crystal! Check out my store right here! - http://cherryOnTopDesign.Co
Love their AWESOME crystal, too? Show them some love on their facebook page! And NO I was not paid for this opinion, given any crystal or offered any (although I'd never turn it down ;) ) by Swarovski or any of their affiliates/subsidiaries.
I went to a bead show from one of the large chain retailers and spent a boat load of money. I bought this and thats, bits and bobs, and thing-a-ma-jigs....and crystal. Vintage Rose, Rose Peach, Sand Opal, Light Rose Satin and Griege....
