this afternoon i had my youngest student (in the sweat shop) a 5 year old little boy. he wanted to make an apron like his mother made (apparently he hasn't stopped wearing it since she brought it home last week. so, he made himself a little art apron out of the same fabrics. he did 75% of the sewing, and his mom finished it for him after he and the bri went on a play break...child labor laws are such a pain ;-)
the bri started one too, that i finished, and i will get pix of them tomorrow during their after school art class (they are using acrylics tomorrow :-)

the sewing classes are going well...i have 4 offical students (not counting the bri) and am working towards getting some more.
the school is letting me put up a poster/ad for the classes (36" tall by 26" wide near the parent boxes, so lots o'coverage ;-)
i'm working on the poster today, along with tearing apart over 10 years of magazines that i have been storing (martha, country living and home, bhg, romantic home, victoria [that's not even in print anymore] and an assortment of others)...i keep my mehc intact and have every issue since the premier!!!
i'm planing a wedding for a friend...having some fun with that and love the creative outlet (planing a dream wedding and all :-)
the garage is still improving!!!
i traded with the bri's art teacher, one months extra after school lessons ($108 plus supply fee) for a necklace and earrings, and she visited the my garage and wants to photograph it (hope that means she likes it)!
so this isn't just a text post, here is a pic of two of the girls, one in her finished pj bottoms and the other hamin' it up...
will post more pix soon...have some cute student pix with projects to upload this week...
take care and hope all are well,

but there is no where to go but up from here!
in a couple weeks, the new insurance should approve my zoloft (after 3
different layers of weaker crap whose side effects have been no fun).
the bri got her first 100% on her spelling tests last friday!!!!
the bri's chore chart is working out great...she's robbing me blind 1 quarter at a time...
i'm one step closer to getting my computer back!!!
i've installed microsoft frontpage on one of the computers at the bri's
school, so i should be able to get my websites update!!!!!!!!
i've been designing some uber-cool jewelry (and am so modest ;-) that
should photograph well...here's to hoping it sells well &
i miss you all and hope all is well with you :-)

If there is someone on your friends list who makes your world a better place just because they exist and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the internet, then post this same sentence in your journal. |

~yucky sick right now, but it appears i'm on the mend!
~was able to get my size 10's over the thighs and bum, and if i tried real hard i could probably button them, but i just don't do that to myself, its enough that they made it up :^)
~cleaned the seashell bathroom yesterday (in an effort to sweat the evil out)...floor, tub, shower doors (i took them off to clean, folks) medicine cabinet, mirrors, walls, toilet and sink...today i just have to clear off the turquoise shelf to dust, polish, de-clutter and get my bath towels out of the tiny linen closet and free up that space!
~worked my vintage child's toy dressers into my bedroom, on the tops of real dressers and such. it helps to keep the clutter hidden and the jewelry dust free. (i have been really making a ton of jewelry, mostly for me, and incorporating lots of my friends art charms and such to them, very pleased with myself ;^)
~the bri's room is really getting better, today i will probably clear out another 4 big bags o'toys and such.
~i have read 7 books this year, not bad considering that last year this time i hadn't read a book for pleasure since i had been forced to because of air travel!
~i started sketching (something i don't feel confident doing) cause there have been fairy's flying around in my head for weeks and they will not let me rest until i get them out. i'm going to be working them into some watercolour projects in the next month or so...
~still no computer, so i can't upload any pix of the stuff i'm doing (very frustrating, but not enough that i've stopped doing things :^)
hope you are all doing well this year~

You are an Iris:
You are logical, analytical, dignified, and wise.
You are studious by nature and may prefer books
to people. You tend to be a serious person but
are capable of making others laugh with your
dry sense of humor. Friends always benefit from
your advice.
Symbolism: Over the centuries the iris has come to
symbolize faith, wisdom, hope, and promise in
love.
Which Flower are You?
