Welcome, Saturday!

I have never been so relieved to have the weekend. It was a long week. And stressful. But I finally got my Quarterly taxes done. I did them all by myself. I hope I did it right. I just went over the last quarterly paperwork that I have from when I had the tax guy do it last time.
This time I just couldn't see paying $65 to have him do it. It took me probably twice as long to add everything up and then figure out the complicated form. Why does it have to be so hard?
I don't get that. But anyway, I got it done and now it's behind me and I'm sure they'll let me know if I didn't do it right.
Next up on the agenda, finish the Christmas shopping. But I think that doing it this weekend is a mistake so I may wait and go late Monday night. Once that is done, I'll be ready to enjoy the holidays.
This necklace you see above was the first piece I have been able to sit down and create in like 2 weeks. I sat down and the flow came and all of a sudden I had this outcome. I love it when that happens and I truly missed being able to bead without any deadline, or agenda.
It's listed in my Etsy shop. It's really needing a good home. It's very wearable. And agreeable. It won't argue with you, and won't cause any marital problems. It's pretty good about doing chores, and keeping the peace. And it won't leave the seat up on the toilet. AND it's a very good cook. You can't go wrong really.
Thank you to all of the wonderful comments on the Pendant giveaway post. I will let you know what happens either way but we are still waiting to see what happens. I have a few more days before I'll know for sure. Somthing's gotta give. With all of these wishes, and hopes, and dreams, and prayers...something's gotta give.
