Book Page Clock

I saw a book page wreath on a craft blog, very nice!

So I pulled out a clock that I had altered before, and used a DECO style clock face that was given to me by Roger Wood  of  klockwerks.com

The book pages are AGED already, naturally, and I blinged it up nicely.

Unfortunate for me that between LAYERS I did not remember HOW to roll the book pages into cones..

hahahahahahahaaaaaa

I am giving this to a benefit auction this week...

oy veh

I am such a sissie

I really let pain and depression cycle into a very bad place

I went to my therapist Marie

I went to the pain management doctor

I took the shots in my poor thumb and changed meds again

I am getting "under control"

But the stuff piles up so bad that I feel less than adequate handling it..

I had my 57th birthday

I am having issues with the spouse that I can not handle at ALL...

Since the depression is lifting and such, I got some cool ideas for artsy stuff

And since I didn't get into the Warrenton Artisan Guild Country Christmas this year I wasnt under that pressure...

I am trying trying trying to get rid of negative thoughts and keeping myself in a good mood by drawing, because I don't have much luck with the left hand

It is very difficult to sew, and I did find lots of cool things to do with my big fiber art scarf stuff, but I just have no interest putting the stress on that hand!

I drop stuff

AND the change to cooler weather! OY VEH! My hand and arm BURNS like I started a fire on the skin that sinks into the muscle

So, we will see how the heck I recover from THIS and THAT, and get thru November...

Can't Do It

I have some issues that are preventing my participation in the FAMILY DAY at the Village Book Store this weekend.

I wish I could just drop everything and rest my hand, because the pain is really bad now, and I had been "prepping" some envelopes last night, and it is a direct result of that PREP work.

Today I can barely type, and that thumb is not even in USE when I type.

stoopid thumb

Busy Weekend?

I will be checking out the art exhibit at the Meadows Shopping Plaza this weekend, and showing the fliers I am making for the Village Book Store Family Day.

The family day has a book signing, and we talked about something for the KIDS to do, and I got some good projects going... reuse and recreate.. eazy peazy simple things that can be made up for gifts.. etc.

I need to see what my fotos look like! I forgot I took them.

I will be forgetting my head next...
