Bits Of My Weekend
I didn’t mean for this to be the hand and food edition of Bits Of My Weekend, but I warned you that I’d be a bit empty handed (er…wait…) today. But I promise next weekend will extend beyond this ridiculousness. I didn’t even touch my camera Saturday. I got home from my jewelry class and took a nap. That deserves italics because I do. not. take. naps. ever. Naps have a weird opposite effect on me: I get completely disoriented, groggy, and they throw my delicate sense of time off. But I really, really needed it. Which brings me to my next gripe: daylight saving time. I know, I’m a huge baby, but I have a really weird sense of time that’s completely screwed up by traveling to other time zones, naps, and daylight saving time. My mother does not call me her “delicate flower” for nothing. But, I will say, that extra hour of daylight is rather marvelous. Anyway, I finished my class, concluding that I am terrible at making rings that involve setting stones (I was the only person in the class who didn’t finished because I was totally incapable of doing so) and that making rings is fun, but probably not for me. My hands are cut to pieces and my eyes are sore from squinting. I have such greater respect for metal workers now! I finished one for my mom’s birthday (the one I’m wearing on my middle finger above) and a itty bitty guy for myself as I’m not much of a fan of wearing silver. So, just a slice. I had fun, but I’m glad the class is over and I can have my weekends back. I take that back, this big necklace project gets my weekends for the next month. Oh well, weekends are overrated…right?

Is that grilled cheese? It doesn’t really matter actually, toasted sandwiches are the best.
Also, not so much a fan of naps. 90 percent of the time I wake up feeling worse than I did before I took it. I hate that! My head is blurry and my stomach in knots. Ick! There are days though, where you just gotta get one in.
(Nice fortune btw)

Is that grill cheese and apples? Could be the best comfort food combo ever. Pretty rings. I love the little sliver of silver.

Did your heart skip a beat when you cracked open that fortune cookie? It’s silly to believe a cookie but hey, it’s a nice thing to be told.

clearly, with the success of your jewelry shop, that fortune cookie isn’t too far off!

Naps have the same effect on me! It doesn’t refresh me or take the tiredness away, it does the opposite- it makes me sleepy, gives me a headache, and it takes me a good hour to snap out of it once I wake up…
Cool pics though, and I love those two rings together!

What a great fortune. I’ve opened one that had no fortune inside – more like unfortunate cookie.
