Hello everyone. Yes, I realize I keep disappearing from blogland and you must all be getting very tired of reading my same old excuses. Just when I think I’ll come back to blogging regularly something else is going on. In the past few weeks I’ve had family visiting, had to work some weekends and been dealing with the effects of spring allergy season.
So those things have kept me busy but I’ve also had a lot of fun with my jewelry class, which is now over. Here is another of my creations:
Last weekend I was in San Antonio for a bookbinding class. I can’t wait to show you what I made although I have to finish it first. Ha.
In other news, I’m very happy to report that my cousin who’s been ill (was in the hospital for almost a month) is at home and on his road to recovery. Yay. Thank you so much for all of your good wishes and vibes for him.
Reading news, well let’s just say that I’ve been reading a lot of romance and mystery. Mystery is my go-to comfort read but not the romance so that’s an interesting development.
Up ahead, I’m taking a new crafty class which starts this week. I am so thrilled about it and I’ll share more on that later. Amidst all the busy-ness, I try to find time for my yoga practice, which really should be a daily practice. I’ve been getting on the bike a few times and as the temperatures keep climbing here all I can think of is vacation. Not for a while yet but lately that’s a big thing on my mind because we finally get to go to a destination that’s been on my wish list for many years.
Again thank you for continuing to come back to visit with me and for your emails. Now it’s time for me to go spend a few moments with my book of the moment and relax before another hectic day at work.
Iliana, good to see a post from you. And the earrings are so cute. Glad you enjoyed your class. Also nice to hear good news about your cousin. Hope he continues to improve. The weather has been nice, hasn’t it, but I still hope we get more rain before the really hot comes.
Enjoy your reading, whatever it is. 🙂
It’s always nice to hear from you Iliana–glad to know your cousin is doing better and that you have lots of good things going on in your life! 🙂
Nice to see a post from you, Iliana! I am glad your jewellery class went well. Take care of yourself!
I’m glad I am not the only one who went MIA. Love the earrings!
So glad your cousin is recovering! And awesome earrings too.
I LOVE those earrings so much. They are fantastic.
Glad you’re enjoying some of your favorite things. No worries about sporadic blogging. We’ll be here.
Those are gorgeous earrings! It’s okay if you’re busy – just nice to see you posting at all. Now I am extremely curious about your vacation spot!!
Isn’t it funny when your reading habits change!
It’s always good to see a new post from you!
HI Iliana, nice to see a post from you! 🙂
I wish I had my ears pierced sometimes – the earings are quite atractive – have you made other jewellery for non earing people? I admire people how can take some time to develop their creative skills. Keep it up – and post more…
I haven’t been around the blogsphere as much either. Spring time usually means being on the go a lot for my family as well as lots of time outside. Don’t worry we will all be around no matter what!
Gorgeous earrings!!
I’m glad to hear that your cousin is doing better. A month in the hospital?! Poor guy.
I’m a mystery/thriller roll this month. Loving what I’ve been reading and wishing it would pour so I wouldn’t feel guilty about staying inside instead of working in the yard.
Have a great week. So good to see you pop back in here.
Those earrings are fab-u-lous!!! Seriously love ’em.
Sounds like you’ve had good times away for the blog. Can’t blame ya for that!!! We’ll be here. 🙂
Great news! I can’t wait to read about your other news.
Good to hear from you! Your earrings are terrific, Iliana. You are going in several artistic directions, aren’t you? You live in a perfect place to be exposed to so much inspiration!
Love the earrings and glad to hear your cousin is better!
