Good Evening all!!

Today was a day that will be in mind and heart for a very long time.

I got to meet Joanne (NatureNut), her main squeeze Bill, and the most important of the three Angelina Nugget.

We spent the day talking and laughing and I got to get some much needed in person help with my wire wrapping issues and problems.

Watching someone like Jo do a wire wrap with the patience of a saint to help me was wonderful and very very helpful!

She helped me get over the fear of failing or what I think it is and showed me that any ... even the smallest of problems can be turned into something fantastic!!!.

Hopefully she will post the pics of the three pieces that she did today (well .... I helped a little as she made me face what were some of my issues) as I watched and asked a million questions as she progressed.

Hugs and Love!!! and ...

As Always

OMG! I feel faint!!! Too much? Oh Well!!!

Haha! We had a wonderful time wrapping and talking rocks! Julie has done some wonderful tumbles. Here is a picture of Julie wrapping.

Whoops! Forgot... there's a contest going on...

Well... at least I can show the wraps we did together.

Julie brought a whole bag of tennis balls for Angie. Angie had a blast asking for new balls to be taken out for her to play with. After Julie left, Angie was all loved up and tuckered out!

Julie loaded me up with some awesome leather scraps for me to make pouches. That was great because I was down to two little ones. This will keep me busy for a long, long time now.

She's awesome and as funny as she seems. Thanks for a great day!

The wraps are great. That one in the middle is so colorful with the two wires. What a great day of "play time" you all had. WTG !

RickB: Cheaper by the dozen? Nov 10, 2024 7:07:13 GMT -5 *

rocknrob: That had better be a good sandwich for that price, otherwise you're better off making one yourself. Nov 10, 2024 21:10:43 GMT -5

amygdule: I like my sandwich made by a talented artist that deserves a Tip...Thank You Nov 11, 2024 7:12:10 GMT -5 *

rocknrob: I make my own sandwiches and yet I never tip myself... OMG I'm the a@@hole! Nov 11, 2024 11:29:51 GMT -5

amygdule: Her sandwich taste better... Nov 11, 2024 17:07:29 GMT -5 *

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
