After 2 Years

By 4pm tomorrow my sister and her family will be arriving at the airport for a month long vacation. It had been two years since we saw each other. Two years since the Marcelo family were complete. I have thought of many things for girl bonding, this time we will be including our youngest sister. She got married last year and is now officially included in the "bonding time".


Photo was taken....yes that was 2 years ago! We have to have our picture taken again this year. It might take another two years for us to be "together" again.

Cant wait for bonding time to begin. Yay!

Saw You Yesterday

I didnt imagine I will be able to see you yesterday but I did and I felt happy. We didnt have the chance to hug or even chat but its enough to see you even just for a short time. You look good and slimmer, healthier too. Exercise really does make wonders. keep it up.

I hope to see you and spend time with you longer dear Russ. Btw, when are you and D coming over the compound?

Goodbye Summer...welcome rainy season

I think summer just said its goodbye yesterday, vacation over. Rainy season almost immediately took over and made the weather cold, wet and dark. I cant possibly enjoy going out enjoy the wet and not feel gloomy. But just as always when the rainy season is here and I cant do anything about it, I always always sit down and start planning for new designs for my beading, wire working and dream about making a scrapbook layout.

With the radio on, my favorite music playing...a hot cup of coffee on hand- I immerse myself with experimenting with all of the possible designs I could think of making. The months of June and July marks the start of the most busiest months of my year. Experimenting with different designs, wire gauges, beads and planning how many will I make consumes all of my time within these months.

During the sunny months I have surfed the net on different jewelry designs to try and have compiled a lot of things to experiment. Here the two sites I visit most- Beading Daily and Wire Jewelry. These sites make me awake until the wee hours of the night. Sometimes I even get up and go to my craft area to work on some projects I cant seem to get out of my mind.

I hope to post some finished projects at Creative Outlet soon.

Go Go Go Manny!

Congratulations Pacman!!!!
