a lil peace and quiet
Sim took the kids swimming. I have the whole house to myself!! updating my site and off to make some sets of beads. He took me out to dinner last night. It was nice. Very quiet without the kids. lol. we dont do that often. i felt like a bad mommy cos i really didnt feel like going home. We went to a sporting goods store to look for some gym shoes for Rico. We couldnt find a thing in his size. 
he wears a size 15 so….ugh. we did a lil christmas shopping, too. lol parents….we go out for a night alone and end up thinking and doing for the kids. lol. i did manage to buy myself some head pins for the jewelry. So we got home and back to the chaos. A boy down the street spent the night so video games were blaring, computers were blasting, and my daughter was watching a movie so the tv in the living room was blaring. i crawled into my bed and watched Most Haunted and tried to ignore the noise. Didn’t work. Some kids came over to see Tashi and Jordan and they sat on the front porch laughing and talking until i called their cells and told em to come on in. all the sudden, silence. THAT makes me nervous…silence in a house full of kids. lol. but they were all tuckered out and falling asleep. ahhh silence. lol
jordan’s hand was actually broken in 4 places. I don’t really understand how or why but he has continued going to wrestling practice and even played in the annual football game here on Thanksgiving. It looks a lot better. I will be surprised if the doc doesn’t give him the all clear next week.
A friend asked me to make a kitten bead and a black lab dog bead. i did it! i think they are both adorable and will be posting pics tomorrow. Seems like sculpted beads are getting to be my “thing” around here. I like doing them, don’t get me wrong, but, they are pretty tedious. Especially on a HotHead torch.
I made some sugar frit. I raided my kitchen again and found a nice deep spoon to put it in to roll the bead in frit. Hoping to get started on some sugar beads today, too.
