My dream vacation...March 14th

So I had one of those 'off' days today. It has been about 5 weeks since I quit smoking and today I wanted one SOOOOOOOO badly...I have been fidgety and grumpy all day. But it is almost over and I can crawl into bed and make it through another day as a non-smoker.

But with that having been said...I did not feel like making beads today or anything that would be considered productive...so I started searching Flickr pictures and websites for the BEST vacation spots. I have decided when and if I ever have enough money to go somewhere hot (before I am in a wheelchair with an oxygen tank, no offence intended) that I want to go to BORA BORA...OMG....it is gorgeous. I have never seen water like that and how cool to stay in a raised thatched hut on the oceans edge. Is that gorgeous or what. So I have decided to start a fund..forget the credit card debts, forget the extra spending money...I am going to attempt to put a good amount of money away each week so that in 39 weeks (mid december) I can go there.....well I can dream can't I!!! :)

anyway back to my last post...I said I was making licorice allsort beads for a lovely lady in Australia...well they did not turn out the way I wanted...but she was very kind and bought them anyway. Well she turned them into the most lovely jewelry pieces...she is a really talented designer and you can see her etsy shop here and this is a picture of the set she made. Thanks so much Leanne for making my beads look good....so glad your mum was pleased!!!

Anyway 'nuff said...I am off to dream my dreams of Bora Bora and maybe one day I will be posting the pictures here of my holiday!!!

'nite all.
