This is the journey of a glass artist's struggle to earn a living on the web and be creative at the same time.

Hi
Well hello again! After my whining session last time I think I should focus on the positive! Bead sales are up, my customers are all happy -which makes me happy! I designed a few new toggles and eye glass pendant holders in glass that are really hot and cool - so the torch is being good to me!!
On a sad note - my nephew passed away last December 25 - Christmas night - he took his own life - it has made me so much more sensitive to those around me! What brings this up now is that his dad passed away two days ago - a possible suicide - they live in Alaska and he was talking about suicide since his son died and he went white water rafting and just drowned! It was horrible to get another call. Alaska always held great memories for me - the beauty is unimaginable - you just have to see it to believe it. Even though my 14 yr. marriage ended there - heck it still has great memories, because the ending of that relationship was a good thing for me and for my son. Have you been following the Scott Peterson trial - well if you have - then you have met my ex!! All stories and affairs, and no interest in his son. Haven't seen him in years - and to be honest just thought about him now while writing this - lol! I suppose that is a good things since I was pretty broken up when the affair and divorce first happened!
Lets see - Glass - I find myself consumed with ideas - had a friend over for dinner and he nicely reminded me that for three hours I only talked about beads and glass! LOL - thank goodness he is a good sport. Talking about consumed lampworkers - have any of you read the blog by the anonoymous lampworker? It is killing me - because her last post was two years ago and she sounded so unhappy! I wish I could reach her and let her know that I really enjoyed her blog and hope she is well!
Well, I have vented a bit for a time - I am going to bed early tonight - no torch - just snuggle with my doggies and kitty - well, doggies - kitty hates the dogs so she stays in with my son and daughter-in-law downstairs - yup one great big happy extended family!! Got to go.
See ya soon!
