Bead 517 Rest in Peace Peanutbutter


Early this morning our rabbit Peanutbutter passed away in his sleep. This last winter had been very tough on him and unfortunately he didn't have the strength to keep going, yesterday we knew in a way that we were nearing the end. We made him as comfortable as possible and I held, fed (him mainly treats and a banana one of his favorite foods), and was able to say my goodbyes to him for most of the day. It hurt allot but I at least can take solace that he didn't suffer and was well loved by everyone in the family. I miss him terribly but am glad that he isn't sick anymore. today was horridly long and made worse by me forgetting that he wasn't here about every half hour.
I know in my heart it is better this way but still am struggling with him not being here.

Bead 515

Nice day despite me getting a little bit worse illness wise! spent the morning bundled up at home, mid afternoon and lunch hanging out with neighbors, munching on pizza and exchanging gifts.After we returned to our house and recovered from the journey over there (need I remind you that we are just next door from one another, but we are all sick-ish so egh I guess we had an excuse) then mama and I went to go visit and exchange gifts with my sister and big bro, It was really fun despite not being able to visit long. I got great gifts and my brother and sister know me so well! I got really nice aromatherapy things and a really awesome monster mug from my bro! It ironically is my absolute favorite uglydoll so  he did very very very well. ^________^

Bead 514 new additions!


hello happy people! I hope your Friday has been wonderful! mine has for the most part! I've been feeling a bit icky off and on all day long but I survived and had a great time despite it. Hung out at home in the morning. Went to purchase a Labbit in the afternoon, I have been wanting one for a long time now and finally had enough Christmas money left over to get him and even a light blue flocked Domo, I knew the store that I got him from only had a super limited stock and I almost didn't find my labbit...he was the very last one in stock and hidden crazy well amongst allot of other toys, I am glad that I thoroughly searched before giving up and calling it a bad day! after labbit and domo were purchased we went to the local thrift store where I found a great bundle of vintage ties 10 fabulous ties came in the bundle and ironically I love everyone of them. I also ended up saving an old suitcase from a neighbors trash pile! it was only dusty on the outside and pretty nice otherwise, already cleaned it up and started a project on it.

One of the many wonderful presents I got today was a new shiny tea kettle!

Bead 508

its cold... like really cold.
I'm tired... like really tired.
I feel sick... like really sick.
been spending half the day in bed, a small portion shopping (NEVER EVER EVER AGAIN, I almost had a panic attack from the shear amount of people and also the stressed out, ugly spirited, just filling the air and unfortunatly a chunk of my soul also) It doesn't feel like christmas yet. I really don't care about what I get and haven't really asked for anything either, I just want it to feel like christmas and not like an obligation to be ugly like everyone seems to be acting like...well at least at stores.
white bead today, for wishes of snow and wishes for an actual christmas.

Bead 507

well I'm happy to say that we are in fact alive, the world did not end and I am happy to see you alive and here.It was a difficult final day at school with my class and kids but we got through it and were slightly defeated for it but its OKAY! the kids are free, and so are we.
also I got a wonderful surprise , my snow cone came!
it ended up loosing a little bit of its water on its journey (no surprise we didn't have our usual mail woman who isn't a casserole like the dude we had today, he just plopped it on the front porch and went on his merry way....if you don't already know I love mail and am very particular on how packages are delivered to me...always to the back door to the right hand side by the little stoop) but It is still much loved!! and i fixed it, krackers ended up posing with it by accident but she still looks so adorable!

Bead 502

Bead 501


exhausted beyond words and really feeling today in the worst of ways. shopping at allot of random places for allot of random things. including hay...and today I learned that I am allergic to hay, since I was in small confinements (ie my van) for over an hour with said hay I am to the physical state in which I want someone to take me out of my misery. sneezing, coughing, wheezing, and being unable to breathe right is never any fun....I've had a headache since the trip this morning and am beyond the point of simply welcoming death.
almost black bead today in homage to my final days on earth

I'm totally being dramatic but I feel so lousy

Bead 499

It was a rough day.
work on our land had to be done and pretty much the whole backyard was demolished in order to do so...everything gone. yellow bells gone. rose bushes gone. my garden gone. everything gone. I was and still am devastated. The land looked to have been bleeding almost from the deep deep carnage the dug up. I know it will eventually grow back but It hurts so much that it seem lost forever.
root bead today, I picked up so many root segments as I went out to see the carnage left over.

Bead 498

its 12-12-12 people are freaking out about it. I get it, its cool "last one in your lifetime" thingy majjigy. But whateves I was planning to make today great regardless of the date on the calender.
Today was my celebration-adventure day with a good buddy of mine. there was set plans but egh life has a way of muffing some things up.
       we first set off to my home towns first designer toy art show at a local gallery, unfortunately when we showed up there it was a ghost town and no one had there act together enough to have the doors unlocked, even after we talked to a receptionist in another gallery they still didn't help or even bother to pretend to ask around........so that portion of the adventure was postponed. It mad me so SAD that I was sooo freaking close, yet so far away at the same time. As we trudged back to the car I had to pause afew times to wail in my misery.
       after that we went to the comic book store to uplift our spirits (even though the non-gallery tour really brought us down) and it did for the most part, as I was paying I got caught in the witty banter between the cashier and a fellow patron behind me in line...long story short he (the cashier) asked if I could stab the dude in the leg with a pen. weird I know.
then brunch!egh we went to an okay restaurant. it was so so.
     next the craft store! where are spirits were lifted again and where I got some cool stuff for "work" and some cool stuff for future projects too. then since we were in the area we got slushies ^_^ we were in a shopping center and it was freezing cold but still we wanted something cold. a cop (whom was awkwardly parked on the side walk in front of a store) apparently overheard my friends' and my quandary on whether to get ice cream or slushies and teased me for wanting something cold even though it was freezing out and the fact that I was putting on as many layers as I could to stay warm. It was super weird since we didn't know him from adam and that he was pretty far away from us when we were talking, but what is life?
It was an eventful and pretty good day

Bead 497

Okay my first day of break has been manic as all get out, this was a continuation of last nights mania despite being freakishly exhausted I was still bouncing the walls over the ecstasy of not being in school anymore. I woke up pretty early this morning and prepared beef stew in the crock pot to cook low and slow all day long. after that I pretty much played and fiddled around.
I: cleaned my room, cleaned up my new creature shelf, finished a sculpture, and of course the stew.
so pretty productive day for a kind of day in which i really didn't have to do anything.
and tomorrow is going to be even better a buddy and I are doing some hard core adventuring and celebrating.. but you'll just have to wait till then to find out.
cuttlefish colored bead today, thats the sculpture I finally finished!

Bead 496

so the last exam wasn't anything close to how horrible I thought it would be, of course that was to be expected but still it was quite a welcome surprise. The morning was spent sleeping and moping and just watching trash TV and movies. after the exams tacos! to the exam I brought my ghost pins on a leather cuff and I also took a little bag of random comfort objects including but not limited to: a narwhal, a paint chip, a paper clip, a piece of cotton fabric, a small hunk of leather and some other odd bits...yes I know I'm insane. I need and love comfort objects, that's me...yeah.
I also got my makeup paper back today and I did very well on it he loved my illustration page and even gave me a tiny smiley face!
so a tiny smiley bead today

pretty nice day.
yummy breakfast with mama and I.
laundry mat...wasn't so fun but our water is still on the Fritz for now, so it was needed.
after laundry we found (thanks to my dad) an awesome estate sale where I got a cool shelf, jars, a future table, and allot of nick-nacks all for 9$
ugh seriously awesome deal?
and the cherry on top of the day was receiving my AMAZING  ghost pins
from Sawdust bear ( aka Shing Yin Khor) they arrived so freakishly fast especially for this time of year so it was a total surprise to see the package in the mailbox today ^_^

they were both a bit apprehensive about getting out of the bubble wrap but I was able to eventually to talk them out and even got to take one on a field trip to the grocery store for a mushroom run!

I love them both so dearly and need to give them names soon..any suggestions??
welp my bead is the color of them because they are so cool and awesome and did I mention I love them?

Today was the first day in a really long time that I was able to go to work and help with my moms class and boy was it work!

(un)fortunately immediately after that work day ended my mom and I hat to migrate across town to help mix batches of cookie dough for the local blood mobile.....ugh I made at least 8 triple batches of dough and my hands still wreak of it (even though I've washed my hands numerous times since) on the bright side I was able to make a monetary donation for some fresh home made butter and I got almost 2 dozen  free range eggs  and a glorious home grown broccoli floret for free from one of the other "mixers"
I also got my new favorite shirt in the mail today! made by fellow hippies and it shall be thoroughly loved forever!!!
