I am grouchy

And why, you may ask, am I grouchy?? (not that I need a reason). No e-mail. None. Except the spam, of course, which gets through because it is addressed to a different address. All of the e-mails since yesterday (4/17) have vaporized, never to be seen again. So if you have sent me an e-mail in the last day or so, please send it again. Today, Rachel Cochran and I drove down to visit Joanie SanChirico and play catch-up with show and tell and yakking. Joanie has just finished a fabulous new piece - well, almost finished - and we were the first to see it. Rachel brought along several she has finished, not the least of which was this little gem. Then, take a look at the closeup below of the center. Rachel is a wizard with beads and her work just glows. I am putting sleeves on a few pieces but don't have time to start anything new at the moment. Especially since it is bed time for me.
