Been a while.

It has been very busy!  Just finished a 4 day event in Pasadena.  Even tho our sales were less than spectacular, The feed back we received was huge.  People unfamiliar with the more lapidary aspect of gems and beads were amazed.  Hopefully they will come in 10 days to the same show in Costa Mesa.  They just couldn't get my spheres out of their head.  LOL

Monday was spent reorganizing all my bins which then put my regular household chores behind.  Today I saw able to finish a Picasso Marble sphere, repair a scratch on one of the Argentinian Calcite sphere, round the smaller Lightening Ridge Agate sphere (which has taken forever) and a Stick Agate sphere.  The corners are off the next Sonora Dendritic Rhyolite and it is almost round.  

In the saws are a Graves Mountain having it's corners cut and another getting cubed.  Also there is a Grave Yard Plume Agate being cubed.  This is material we picked up at the Agate Expo last month.  Once the Graves Mountain is finished, I can't decide what to do next.  There is Lepidolite we just got or should I go for something new?  Decisions, decisions.  If there is anyone home to help, I may go for some Indian Blanket or Shattuckite from Nambia, or maybe some Australian Parrot wing.  Such hard decisions.

Thanks for reading......
