When I'm Stressed I Create

At this point in the adoption process I would give anything to be in the waiting mode. Instead I've been wrapping up odds and ends for what seems like an eternity.

We are supposed to have everything submitted right now, our Home Study is complete and we passed with flying colors. But we are running into some glitches where our portfolio is concerned.

To top that off during my required physical it was found that I have a UTI. So now I have to spend 10 days on antibiotics and go in for re-testing before we can submit my medical information to the adoption agency.

All this crap kind of gave me a case of the blues...and as you all know, when I am stressed I create! So I made this necklace in an effort to get my mind off things...


I just adore the pendant that I used as a back drop. It is a Paua Shell which is the most colorful of the Abalone Shells. It is found along the coast of New Zealand and is truly lovely. I've sold 3 of them already so I'm guessing it'll be a popular one.

Well, that is all for now dearies. Hope all is well with you...try to make today a fantastic one!
