Red Necklace!


Yay! I made my red necklace last night. I went by Michaels, and ended up with a different style of beads then I thought I had wanted. So I have a faux coral necklace, which is actually pretty cute! I have an EEG this morning, so I needed all the happy cuteness I could get. Unlike that lovely picture at the link, I don't get the EEG net, they need to use a gazillion individual electrodes placed on my head with some lovely paste. I figured I should get a picture of pretty hair this morning. Talk about a pain. The best part is when they make me hyperventilate for three minutes, just for their own fun. (Or maybe because there's a chance of provoking a seizure that way for my doctor to read off the recording. Never happened to me, and the photic flash part hasn't ever done it either.)

Necklaces and cheese


My hair is getting big and long again, despite cutting it in January. I might have to get my sister to trim up the back a smidgen. I pieced together these two beaded necklaces yesterday, for a little bit of color. They're both very long, just doubled around my neck.


I'll do something like this for my dream red necklace, but I'm planning to make it shorter and purposefully several strands. I was planning to do it this weekend, then I looked in my bead boxes, and I didn't have any red. So out came the purple/blue instead. I re-discovered the best thing in the world this weekend, though. Smoked Gouda. My family has gone through 1.5 of the regular size wheels you can buy in the grocery in a weekend. Mainly because we've eaten it with every single meal but breakfast. We're a cheese sort of family, and it seems to go well with everything. The munchkins were away this weekend with their other grandparents, or else I'm sure we would have finished off that second wheel!
