My Gosh How the Time Flies!

I only have to get up and go to work on 4 more Mondays. (Memorial Day there is no school). I don't know how many days of actual school that is, I refuse to count yet. Midterm report cards go out this Thursday!

I haven't decided what to do with the paper bead business yet this year. I need to rest and recuperate and so have not planned any fairs or festivals for the near future.

But I am leaving for Ireland on June 5th! I'm going with my friend from work. Her and her husband own Pixel's Foto and Frame on 90th South and State Street in Salt Lake City. They do tours all over the world, (Ray took a tour to Turkey last fall and next year they are during a China tour!) But this year is Ireland. The tour is really for people who love to take photographs since Ray is a professional photographer but I'm going along merely for the site-seeing and maybe a bit of sketching. I said that I'm just not really into "photografizing". But I'll take my little sharp shooter just in case. I'm so excited, I want to go sit out at the airport now!

I would like to put more necklaces on Ebay to sell, if you have a special order, I am still doing them - just email and let me know what you are looking for. I just am really enjoying reading books and doing some genealogy lately.
But I did just make a gorgeous green lanyard for a co-worker out of beads from a Mother's Day poem book from the 1970's that I picked up at the D.I.
And I do need to say a special welcome to the family to my grand-niece's new lizard, "welcome Lizzy!"
