5:03 A.M.

I finished the hemp bracelets, or rather anklets, in pretty good time. Even though Nate started messing with the beads and ended up dumping them down the dryer vent on my old dryer. I had to tear it down to retrieve the beads. Oh Happy Day! I have spent the remainder of the time working on a seed bead bracelet. I have these tiny beads in my hair, up my nose, on the floor, in the keyboard of my computer, in my ears and I wouldn't be surprised to find one or two down south or stuck under my boobs. All that, and the bracelet looks like shit. Three cats have almost lost their lives today as I would get a strand done and they would start messing with them and as I was throttling them the beads would slip off and scatter. At least now I know why the bracelet looks like shit and will do better tomorrow... er later today or tomorrow. All is not lost I suppose. The hemp anklets turned out great except that mine will have to be surgical removed as I have had my leg under me all day. As a matter of fact, I may have to be surgically removed from this chair. Some interesting facts about today: 1) Speed works 2) My ankle is 7 1/2 inches around, my wrist is 5 1/2. 3) Nate's ankle is 6 1/2 inches around, his wrist is 5. 4) I have very small bony wrists. 5) My phone has not rang one time. 6) My son does know how to use the microwave. 7) If you blow ashes off the desk it scatters beads. 8) I cannot bead worth a shit. 9) I cannot bead worth a shit with a 15 lb. cat on my lap. 10) Trashman is going to be a dad. Good night
