Forgive me! I haven't even introduced my partner for the Bead Soup Blog Party that's going down tomorrow that went down this weekend.
Her name is Annette Rivers. You can learn all about her here and here. Owls are her thing so she quite appropriately calls herself "Mamaowl". I love it!
This is what I sent her:
Pssst: I stole this (above) pic from her blog!
This is what she sent me:
I know that lots of you came to my blog this weekend expecting to find my finished piece for Lori Anderson's Bead Soup Blog Party. Instead, you got crickets....or probably the flower tower post, am I right? I feel like I let everyone down. It is a little disappointing to come to someone's blog and they haven't posted their reveal yet.
You know that drama that Lori is so kind and patient and understanding about? Well, it visited me this weekend.
Friday morning, getting ready for work, I pull the celing fan cord to turn on the light. Instead of light, I get a loud Pop! noise. Great, I figure that the ceiling fan has gone bust.
I go to work that Friday, with every intention of finishing up my piece that evening and getting my post ready. When I get home, I noticed that I can't get on the internet. Basically, long story short, whatever happened that morning to the ceiling fan, also took out the overhead light in the adjoining room (my craft room/office/guest bedroom), and also some of the plug outlets in those rooms don't work. Since the router/computer was connected to one of the outlets that doesn't work I don't have internet at home. (I'm posting from work. shhhh!!!!). To recap, no overhead light in two of the bedrooms, and four of the plug outlets in those two rooms don't work. Maybe I can move my router to one of the plugs that does work and at least get the internet going? All those plugs and connections are kinda scary, lol.
I hope to finish my piece and get everything together for this Saturday's third reveal. Honestly, this whole thing has me a little tramautized and crazy. I hate dealing with stuff like this and especially hate having to fork over who knows how much money this could cost. That could be beads and pretties, man!!!
Fingers crossed for me please!
Below is a list of all the 2nd reveal participants. Go check 'em out!
