Bead Fest

My mom just called to tell me she downloaded the latest version of AOL 9.0 all by herself. Not a big deal but Mom isn't real computer-literate. After we chatted for a bit I asked her what her plans were for tomorrow. She's free all day so I asked if she'd like to go to Bead Fest with me. She asked if she was going to like it or be bored. I told her there are lots of sparklies. Well she's not into sparklies like I am but she's agreed to accompany me. I was looking at making the hour and forty-five minute drive solo but now I get to freak my mother out with my driving (I've been told I brake a bit late) and spend some time with her. :-)

(BTW, the AOL is actually working and she's really pleased with herself.)

That's wonderful. Please have your Mom call my Mom. Mine is a dingbat (but very lovable & supportive)

Mom's not a dingbat - she's chock full of common sense. She claims not to be creative but where does she think I got it from? I think that because she was forced to be an adult so early (bad childhood and a mom at age 17) she never had a chance to explore her creative side. I've often hoped she'd pick up needlework or *something*. I know she could do it if she only tried. Maybe the sparklies will get to her.

I need everyone to send some of those RCB vibes to Mom and convince her to buy beads. ;-)

I hope you have as much fun as I did today! I thought I was going to be a good girl, and only spend the little bit of money I had in cash. Didn't work! At least my biggest purchase was dichro, and I feel a little more justified buying that than the silver and crystals.

I wish I had a lot more money, and time to go back. I got so tired, I fell asleep, and didn't make any beads. It was so much fun, though! Joan Eckard
