New Venture and Random Thoughts
I got a wonderful new camera for Mother's Day and my birthday this year. The pictures I've been taking are so spectacular that I've posted some for sale on Etsy. Check out my site. I'll be gradually posting more photos because that's what the Etsy gurus recommend to keep your site in people's mind!

Latest Work:
I made some beads that look like turquoise. These are very cool in person. I'm not that excited about the necklace. I think I'll be re-working that. The ring is nice...but I need to perfect it!
Random Thoughts:
Do you really give a hoot of Angelina and Brad get married? Frankly, I thought they already were married. They have kids together, no? If I could do without hearing about famous people these two are tops right now--especially since Paris Hilton seems to have drifted out of the lime light. I'm not complaining, because she was tops on my list for eons!
Did you read that Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer hooked up? I say, go for it Jen! woohoo!! I don't know why their purported romance thrills me, but it does!
If you have kids in sports you probably have experienced the negativity that can occur on the court/field/team. Amazingly, its rarely drama created by the kids, but by adults! Nothing has happened to any of my kids lately, thank God. But a teammate of the twins has broken some shot put and discus records recently and actually gotten flack about it! Adult men (I single them out because my personal experience has been with the male of the species!) need to take a step back and ask themselves why the success of a teenage athlete threatens them so. Can't you just be happy that they are good and leave it at that?
I'm slowly learning a whole new language since the twins because heavy weight track participants. No running here, they are shot put and discus throwers. Here are a few of the terms I've learned: ring, scratch, flight, glide, PR (personal record), power throw. Sit with fellow parents long enough and you catch on! The throwing events are actually exciting. From the second they start throwing until the shot or discus lands, you want to hold your breath!
Remember when May would mean the end of meaningful television for several months? Now my favorite shows are coming on in the summer! Burn Notice, Monk, Psych. USA has the best shows.
