Fun with the family

[ianuk]

My mom is addicted to the jewelery channels..thank gods we don't have them on Cox...but she likes to watch them online. Course the Mac doesn't like a lot of their sites (which I'm grateful for) but she still tries to watch them for the specials. Mel's computer handles them okay which makes her happy...I just can't believe that she watches them. Sigh...well, at least she has good taste and doesn't buy much if anything. Some of the stuff is pretty but I saw a few things yesterday in our travels around the presidio that I'm in love with. A jeweler named Dawn Stewart has some fantastic and beautiful stuff. She has two styles: 1) the chunky odd but wonderfully set rings etc and then 2)which is this fine, very tiny bezel set stones in very delicate chains. I was enamored. Hopefully mel remembers that. Course I put things on my list at Maguires too.

Anyhoo...richard's secret present is going very well. I'll finish that up once the house heats up just a bit. Its very cold right now and my studio is about 5-8 degrees cooler. Then I have the handsewing projects to do that will require some fabric and some embroidery. All good.

Well, time to check the rest of the nets for info this fine sunday morning and then shove too on another busy but relaxing day.
