Let me start off by saying that today, I am sick as a dog.
I was feeling kind of icky when I went to bed last night, and I woke up at about three o’clock in the morning to that time-honored classic, the stomach bug. Let’s see, all total, I got up at three, five, six thirty, sometime around eight o’clock, and twice at nine.
And then finally, finally, I got some sleep. After waking up and showering, I weighed myself as I do every morning (except it’s usually earlier than noon) and saw that I’d lost three pounds from my weigh-in yesterday. Three pounds! And this is after eating a huge meal of Indian food for lunch yesterday (I really, really hope that the Indian food didn’t make me sick–I infamously abandoned PB&J sandwiches when I was 8 because I got sick after eating one. In my rational mind, I know that the PB&J didn’t make me sick, but I still can’t eat them).
Anyway, a blurry trip to the grocery store later and I’m now curled up on my couch drinking Gatorade and eating saltine crackers. A quick check of my email has revealed a new Etsy convo–lo and behold, I’ve been mentioned on the Art Bead Scene blog! This is a blog run by a group of lovely artists, one of whom, Elaine Ray, frequently holds trunk shows at the bead store I work at. She makes lovely ceramic pieces that I love to wrap in copper wire.
If you need some cheering up, if you’re curious, or if you just want to check out a great blog, go look at Art Bead Scene–and then check out all the lovely handmade work featured there.
