I have to apologize to those of you who have commented on my blog.  This year has been a very trying year for me, no excuses, just an explanation:

Early in the year my husband was hospitalized for a week with 2 surgeries with a couple month recoop.  I am blessed to have him.  At the same time we found out our oldest daughter was pregnant with our first grandchild,  how exciting, couldnt wait.  On October 11 our grandson was born, after coming close to losing my daughter from HELLP syndrome and our grandson being in NICU for 10 days, all is well.  I am so blessed.  Around that time my mother started declining from end stage Alzheimers, she was put into the hospital where we were told there would be nothing else they could do for her it is the progression of the disease, my sister and I brought her to my home, with the help of hospice (a wonderful organization) to help her pass in comfort.  Mom passed on December 3 and although I miss her so much, I am blessed to have had such a wonderful mother and that her suffering was over.  I am so thankful for my husband, daughters, sister, all of our family and friends who helped us through this.

It is a new year and I have so many ideas for my jewelry and am looking forward to getting my jewelry out there, I am trying to learn how to get my jewelry in front of more people, I am not technical.  I am working on interchangeable earrings that I believe will be awesome, along with many other designs I have been storing up.   Thanks to all!
