I'm all packed and ready to fly to Cleveland in the morning to do three segments for Beads, Baubles, and Jewels. Why am I not in bed?
I'm filing my nails. Am I really filing my nails right now? It's a bit of a hopeless endeavor--there's really not a whole lot of hope for these workin' hands. I know they will still be veiny and wrinkly and have nicks and hangnails tomorrow. But at least my nails will look pretty good for those close-ups that will inevitably happen...Boy, this is the first time in a long time that I'll be using nail polish for actually polishing nails!
In my rushing around to get ready today I took a break and stamped and colored these dominoes. What do you think? I could have done a million more, they were so fun!
Do you do that, too? You know...on a day you've got a million things on your to-do list, you escape to do something completely unrelated that seemingly doesn't help you get to the finish line? But maybe, just maybe it's those unrelated things that help us get ready? I know my mind certainly needed a creative break...

You are way too critical of your hands. They look lovely. I didn't notice any hangnails - a malady from which I suffer, nor nicks, nor bruises, nor dirt under the nicely shaped nails. I just knew you were normal and magnified every flaw and did not see what the rest of us will, a nicely shaped hand with a beautiful skin tone. Veins? Wrinkles? Not enough to take notice of. Honestly, your hands look just fine.
The dominoes are cool. They would work well in a new technique I am working on.
I am waiting until tonight to paint my nails. I just know I will get into something before the end of the day, and I want them to be the best they can for my BBJ taping on Thursday too! Hope to see you there!
I don't do my nails until the last minute too!
Where did you source out your dominos? I've been looking for the last year for a place to order them.
Christina- I think I got those dominoes at Michaels? But here's another source: http://www.articusstudiodesign.com/id38.html. Good luck! Jean
