SO this weekend
Sorry It looked more awesome at school, it doesn't look that way on my monitor let me know if it looks that way on yours.
I reached the point in my Photobucket where apparently it is full Go figure.
I am also posting this to remind my family, that I have things I love, like chickens books and tea which I would like. But if your my nice relatives who send me money when you don't need to Don't worry. Or mom really cause you just got us a house.... But to all the rest of you are you thinking of me each and every time you see crazy chickens books?
Oh yes at work the other day Steven was nice enough to give me a $2 bill in my payment thanks.
Oh yes my drawing, which up in Art building but of course I don't think it is as good as others .
Bleh Bac T tomorrow.

Some Lovely tasty Tea called teavana Empress of china, which is very delicious and I am having a cup right now. Also some unique little stitch markers. As well as this Llama that I might call Louie.
Then some beautiful Linen Napkins and a table cloth? which are very very beautiful and I feel honored that she gave them to me.
Thanks Carol and Jelly Bean and all my love to you both.

So I went to the Opening of Hands On Craft. “hands on CRAFT is a center for manual arts located in Arcata, California. Our mission is to further traditional craft through education, special events, and materials supply.”
Paper and books. Textiles and fiber. Jewelry and Printmaking.
