the cult, b & p and some acorns...

My husband and a buddy of his went to see The Cult on Friday night. The first two times they saw The Cult Lynn and "Helldog" were in high school. With that history already in place going to see the concert together now was especially fun. Lynn even scrambled around on the floor to get a tamborine that was tossed into the crowd by Ian Astbury. It is possible he might have enjoyed fetching the tamborine more than the actual concert at that moment. I say this because he reinacted the entire tamborine scuttle not once, but four times in the middle of our kitchen replete with getting down on all fours and tossing elbows. Good times.

Saturday my youngest sibs, Beth and Patrick, drove up to stay with us for Spring Break. I know what you're thinking, "yeehaw, Spring Break with your married sister, her husband and two kids! It's just TOO much. How will you recover in time to get back to classes?" Hey, we may be old(er) now but we still know how to have a good time. It's just the good time usually shuts down around midnight or one instead of four or five. It's important to be at least partially lucid when the two year old wants breakfast at 7:30 a.m.

Aside from all the festivities and company a lowly little acorn charm FINALLY made it's way to me so I could finish a special order i.d. charm bracelet; I finished another necklace; and I worked on another little batch of party girls (which I forgot to take pictures of). I'm putting a text link to the picture of the charms here just in case Tricia doesn't want to peek before her bracelet arrives. Here is a snap of the other necklace I finished:


sterling, copper, unakite, miyuki glass. twenty inches long. $35 plus postage and applicable sales tax.
