Rainy Day Blues

It's rainy here today. I can't believe it had to rain on the day I was planning to make rings and new resin pendants. I don't know if it is well founded but I have a superstition about doing gluey or painty stuff on rainy days. I once painted some furniture on a very humid day and it was forever sticky. Seriously, I put one of those vinyl tablecloths on top of the table and the cottoney underside stuck to the table. My sister later stripped the bed frame. I painted the pieces for my very first apartment. I wanted everything to be black. This was the early 90's which is really the late 80's stylewise. I must have been inspired by that awful black laquer furniture that was in vogue at the time. I don't know. Anyway, I can't work on what I wanted to do today so I gotta make another plan! Maybe I will update the website.

Yesterday I made up a bunch of new charm necklaces, all one-of-a-kind. I hit a really good flea market last weekend and got a bunch of great new stuff. Can't wait to share it.

In other news, James, Forest and I went out to Krause again on Sunday to celebrate Father's Day. First we swam, then we hiked around and then we swam again to cool off. On the way home we had Mexican food at Rosies. It was such a great day. Swimming and Mexican food, are you kidding? It was the best day.

Watched a great documentary recently: Guns, Germs and Steel. Highly recommended!
