Some OT, some not. A little venting, a little beadmaking talk....

I'm depressed. Sad, a little angry and frightened. Three guesses as to why
coughelectioncough. I had a blinding headache all day yesterday -
sharp pain behind my left eye that came and went. I slept in this morning
wayyyyy too long, but at least the headache seems to be gone.
Soooooo, today I got started torching way too late. Even though I have
stated here and on the website that I will be moving in new directions with
encased florals and frits and such, today is not the day for me to do that.
I am therefore working in colors and designs that are comfy to me. Pink and
gold. Rounds with florals, scrolls, stripes, etc. Maybe some cubes. Maybe
some dots and twists. Much pink. ******sigh****** Ah, comfy pink.
Maybe I will feel more like branching out after the show (show is on Nov
12th, and boy will I be glad when it's over).
To be honest, I am way stressed out. Some days I have tons of great ideas,
and very little time to act. On the days that I do have time, the creative
motivation is just not there. I think after this show, things will get
better. And I am having a love/hate relationship with this time of year.

Blech.

So, those who have been watching my progress these past weeks, pay no
attention to the stressed out fire-loving chick behind the curtain freaking
out. Things will eventually even out after awhile I think. Same goes for
people who have been patiently waiting for more beads and beads of certain
colors and types. This is exactly why I am not taking custom orders - I may
invoke the right to change my mind on certain things I have told people I
would try to do. Gotta do what I feel like doing everyday, folks -
especially right now when things are this way.

It has felt like an uphill battle since the beginning of October when I was
so sick. Boy am I ever looking forward to vacation during the Christmas/New
Years week.

Thanks for letting me vent, you guys. Love you all....except Lurker/Steve.
He can kiss my glass.

Love you too Kandice, love your beads.... but love you much much more than
to want you to stress over them.
Hugs and more hugs

I'm right there with ya, except luckily I missed out on the illness
stuff. Here's hoping that all our fears are unfounded; I've never wanted
to be wrong more in my entire life. Because I'm *scared*.

I heard a great (if sad) joke today:

Didja vote?

Not yet, I'm undecided. I don't know if I'm going to Canada or Mexico now that
Bush has won.

LOL - that's a good one.

I vote for Canada! My hubby and I need decent health care. Mental health. We
have Medicare which doesn't cover diddly squat when you need to get your head
screwed on straight...

a moment to whine a little follows

My DH has gotten to be an invalid because his depression has gone on so long
and so outta control. I am having a hard time caring for him and for me. It
scares me that it is only getting worse. My depressions have been more in
check, I have responded better to meds and until some months ago had a good
therapist (she saw me pro bono) I have been able to go out and scream up a
storm to get DH proper attention. But now I am getting tired and there are more
and more cut backs in funding for treating mental illness so I am getting
scared...

Well that's enough

I hum it all the time. No one sings it. Nobody knows the words. Honest. I
used to frequent a Canadian chat room, thats where I met DH, and every so
often I would ask them if they knew the words.
I made up some.
*to the tune of Oh, Canada*

Oh, Canada,
Your anthem has no words,
Not any words, that any body knows
No it has no words, no it has no words
At least that anybody knooooooowsssss...
Oh Canada, Oh Canada...
(and so on)

I have mp3 files of every version of Oh Canada that I've been able to
find for the last three or four years.
