New Stuff!!!

Well, this has been a very expensive 2 weeks!!
I go buy a bbq island and then the racecar gets smashed and the 2nd qtr taxes are due...Geez, when it rains it pours around here, speaking of which, wasn't it fun to get the dark clouds and rain yesterday, imagine that rain in Las Vegas!! Then back that up with blue skies and hot and sunny....come home from work and jump in the pool weather today !! It is so freaky living here!!

Ok, on to more important things, first the bbq island, it is 8 feet long and has a 28 inch grill, paper towel holder, light, refrigerator, lights under the bar, umbrella hole. I still need to find 4 chairs to go with it and an umbrella.


The new RaceCar:


And my new silver art clay spinner ring, I made!!! The part with the hearts spins around, it is so cool, I have a little chip I have to fix but Wow this is a cool ring!!!

Sad Sunday and more!

The racecar got caught up in a wreck last night, Joe is okay all the safety equipment did their jobs! But the car is junk!
So hubby is in the garage covered in grease, salvaging what he can of the pieces, he will update his blog tonight hopefully with photos and the whole story, so check my hubby's blog tomorrow sometime, the link is to the right under "gotta check out these blogs".

The pool is sparkling clean again, all levels are normal and it looks fabulous!
I will be in it later with my hat on and a pina colada in my hand working on my tan!

We will be staying in for the next month to make up for the bbq island and the racecar parts he will need to buy to put her back together. So no boulder station mexican food or casinos or restaurants for awhile, gotta stay home and cook hot dogs and hamburgers on the new bbq!

On to some photos: here is the cuff I have poured hours and hours of work into I love it but it is way to big for me to wear, I am heartbroken but I will scale it down and make another for sure!

Here is a peace sign piece of art Jerry B gave me for my birthday, I love this piece to death, I can't thank her enough!!! and look how wonderful the cuff fits and goes with the hand, they were made for each other!! So this is the first piece of art you see when you walk into my studio!

Hello!

Well,
My tooth is killing me, They don't understand I need antibiotics, I don't heal well at all, and they don't give out antibiotics with teeth work anymore due to studies shown it is not effective and could cause your body to not be able to use antibiotics when you really need them...trust me I NEED THEM!!!! ugh!!!

Other then that...fridays bead show was fast and fun, we were in and out and I did not spend much!
The BBQ island gets delivered tuesday so be on the lookout for pictures!!
I made an awesome ring in class today, it has to get fired in the kiln but wait until you see this...Spectacular!!!!
Stay tuned!!!

Happenings...

Hi,
It was a busy and expensive week! I had to go to the dentist, a bbq warehouse, and a bead/gem show and it ain't over yet, I still have a root canal and another bead show to go!!
Today is a redo on a root canal at 1:00 and then Friday all the beaders will be at Palace station for the bead show.

The bbq warehouse was a fun little stop on tuesday...there was an island that had just what we needed on it going for 5400.00, got charlie in there and we got it out the door for 4500.00 flat! Pictures will be taken when it arrives in about 10 days.
It has a round bar table with an umbrella hole, a fridge, and a 28" z grill, a little light and paper towel holder. It does not have counter space on both sides of the grill like I wanted but, we are spending 2000.00 less so I guess you have to compromise somewhere!
So check back soon more fun from Viva Las Vegas!

Bingo!

Well, I took Charlie to his favorite mexican restaurant for his birthday enchiladas, then he wanted to play bingo...where he won 250.00 in the 2nd chance coverall!
He is sooo lucky at that game! I don't win but I enjoy the game.

Well, on to other news...I watched the finale of american idol.....I like David Cook, he has a nice voice he should do well.... But the highlight was getting to see George Michael!! I have been a big fan, I have seen him in concert and anytime you hear him sing he is great, he just has a classic voice and sound that will go on forever. I love his fast songs (great to workout to..try outside or fastlove) and I love his ballards, (a different corner or waiting for the day)
So here's a little George for ya...enjoy!
