Ted has been making jewelry for friends and family and now
he is going into the business. I have a friend who is going
out of the business and he bought a lot of her stones and
findings. I had some cards printed and he is doing mostly
Native American stuff. It fascinates him and he finds it
soothing. I was able to skim off the stones that I particularly like for myself.
Next week is all final activities for the girls and jury
duty for Ellie so I will be taking them to school. I always
enjoy the band concerts.
I have booked a two day vacation in Branson and it is fun
anticipating it. We need a break from every day life and
it will be a good test to see if Ted will be able to go on
the cruise next fall. Every thing worked out perfectly
including Rex's place at the Boarders. I would hate to
change because he really likes the people who own it.
I got a surprise in the mail. Fredo sent me a book he thought I would like and I am enjoying it.
Ms. Robin who foolishly made a nest in a hanging basket of
petunias, now has seven eggs in it. I am watering it by
hand so as not to damage her eggs but she isn't on the nest
much so I rather doubt if they will hatch. However she
and her husband scold me every time I go outside. She
is probably too young and giddy to take motherhood seriously.
