I hope this doesn't offend anyone but, I saw this sign on the net and just had to share the wording with you. Think it was on Facebook. Here's what it says:
Handle every stressful situation like a dog- - -
If you can't eat it or play with it, just pee on it and walk away.
Speaking of dogs, I am sharing this picture of my snoodle, Rusty. He is sitting on the top back of the dogs' recliner. You read that right, our dogs have a recliner to sit on. It's just for Rusty, Leroy and Too Too.
Is anyone on Pinterest? I got hooked up about 5 months ago and I am a wild woman on there. I have 88 boards, 13,168 pins and 1,255 followers. No, it isn't a cult. It's boards of things that I am interested in. Like jewelry, glampers, cooking, sewing, crafts, recycling and upcycling, just to name a few. If you get a chance go to www.pinterest.com and search for Jan Hickman. Now, I don't have to print everything I am interested in. I just pin (or post) it to my board of choice and when I need the information, I can pull it up.
My husband brought me some flowers just because he loves me. He called me to come into the kitchen and help him cook. I should have known something was up because I do not cook. Nope, not at all. Barney loves to cook! Well, I get in there and see the flowers then, I just about fall on the floor laughing. It wasn't the flowers, but the container that he had them in. A porcelain men's urinal. Let me explain this: We did an auction years ago and bought a partial pallet of hospital supplies that were from Korea war time. The stuff was all brand new, boxes never opened. Well, there was one box of white porcelain urinals. So, Barney put my flowers in it.
Barney just came in for lunch and he brought me more surprises: Salmon, blackberry diet tea, Peach sweet tea, salad fixings and cooked crawdads. He knows I can't even stand the sight of the crawdads. It's all I can do to look at a lobster tail.
Went to Share & Care (one of local thrift shops) with my friend, Cindy, yesterday. Boy, did we get some goodies. I bought 2 ties ties to attempt to upcycle into a necklace and possibly a bracelet. Then, I just went crazy. Bought 2 ladies skirts to upcycle into little girls skirts or a skirt and a dress. Found some sherbet glasses, a vase or two, a plate, 4 globes for lights, plus a few other treasures. I am using these pieces to make pedestal cake plates and jewelry holders. When I get finished I will post pictures. Those who know me can tell that Pinterest has a hold on me. Could be worse. I could be out robbing banks!!!! That's suppose to make you smile.
My granddaughter, Krystan, is going to state with the Harrison Archery Team. They compete on March 16th at Hot Springs. Her mom and stepdad are going down to watch her. I wish the team luck.
Have you seen all the chunky bead necklaces? They are both for girls and women. I have made several of them for my friend who does craft shows. Here's a photo of the last three I made.
This is my latest pair of 'peace' sign earrings. The beads are multi colored glass that is translucent. I also have a larger peace sign that I may put on a chain necklace.
These photos are bracelets that I am now making. They are designed to be able to switch out the chains or the beads. You can buy just the pieces and put them together however you would like them to look like. The bottom picture shows how you just unscrew the barrel closure and change it out. The bracelets are $5.00 with the chain and beads of your choice. Then for $3.00 each, you can buy additional beads to hook onto your chain. All can be custom made just for you.
