ABOUT ME / BIO
I have been married to the sweetest man (my best friend) for almost 11 years. I also have the most goodlooking and respectful son a Mother could ask for! I have 1 very smart dog and 5...yes I said FIVE very mischievous, nosy, fun-loving cats. My home wouldn't be the same without all my babies! I am originally from Texas, but have lived in WA State for 25 years. I was a single parent for the first 17 years of my son's life. I went through some pretty tough times, which I now know that those times were just part of my path in this life and has made me the strong woman I am today. I have a degenerative spine/nerve disease that I've had to comes to terms with. Some days are good, some are not, but I forge on and try not to let it get in the way of my creating. I am a quiet person, but not shy. I like to make people smile, and I am a strong believer that you get what you give. Every day I give my troubles to God, cause I know he can handle them way better than me. :-)

MY JEWELRY SKILLS
My specialty is stringing beads & gemstones. My style is feminine, eclectic, fun, romantic, and uniquely my own. :)

DESIRED TECHNIQUES
Beading & wire wrapping. I love learning new techniques and expanding my creative side, therefore, I'll be adding my handmade resin pendants to my etsy shop soon.

GENERAL INTERESTS
Creating jewelry! I love music...have to listen to it everyday. I also love to write. I love all the seasons and gardening. I am a football nut! Go Cowboys! I love to find treasures at antique shops, thrift stores, and yard sales. It's fun and great therapy! I also love camping, fishing, walking, sewing, and spending time with my family & my pets.

Brenda, never be sorry for rambling, especially not about animals. I love to talk ! I am so sorry to hear about your 18 yo kitty. I lost my 18 yo kitty a few years ago, she was a sweetie pie and went through sooo much with me. It is nice of you to give a home to a pregnant Sabrina! Have you tried having her wanded (for a microchip)? BTW what part of Texas were you from? I love Texas.

I love doing rescue. Getting Angel Kisses (my avatar) for my first anniversary was my inspiration to start doing rescue. I wanted to give something back to the Westie breed. I am also active in networking with other rescues to help other cats, dogs and even horses find loving homes.

God Bless you.

Oh no!  I am sorry to hear that about your brother and CCdesign!  I did not know that!!!  HUGS!!!


Sure you can hop righton in the suitcases.  Girlnow you know I plan on taking a TON of pictures.  I am already expecting to have to buy a 3rd SD card!!!!  I am excited and nervous all at once!  I've never been to the islands!  I'm excited to see my friend though.  He's a sweety!


I had a show at teh end of June.  I am actually going to my sister's job today to sale some pieces (hopefully).  They've been askign when I was going to come down.  So today is the day.  I haven't really felt very creative these last fewws though.  So I do not have as many intricate wire pieces and such as I normally have had in the past!  Although my stringing and less intricate wire work is still really different from store pieces. 


I'm glad you are back.  I am not here as often.  You can fin my postes, etc on my two blogs

Hey chicky!! I love that, and I've missed that a lot! lol! Is there any way you can put me in your suitcase? hehe...I hope you have a great vacation girly! Sounds like a nice place!



I'm sorry about your loss... Losing someone is always so hard and sad. I hope you are doing okay. You know he will always be with you. *hugs* I lost my brother on May 19th this year, and last year before Christmas, my very close friend, Cori, passed. She was on here as cc design. It was very sudden and very shocking, and I miss her so very much. But I know she is with me in my memories and my heart, just like your Dad is for you. You hang in there sweety!



I've been making my jewelry and selling it here and there. Doing okay too and glad to be back here. I've missed all my friends here. So, be prepared to be seeing me a lot on here miss missy! lolol!! :)) Anyway, take lots of pics on your vacation and have an awesome time!!



Many hugs my friend!

Brenda (aka: chicky) hehe... :-)

HI,

I am trying to find out who would be interested in a
pendent swap for March.  Feel free to send a yes or no.  Last years
swap was a hoot!
