New Blog!
Hi All,
So I've done some glass-type posts on here, but I didn't want to do a whole bunch (as many as I could be doing) since I wanted to keep this blog more personal and less spam-y. So....I've started another blog, off of LJ (though I believe you can use LJ as a RSS reader to see it, if you so choose). This one is going to be focused just on my ( Read more... ) -

I have yellow jackets. Nesting. In. My. House!
This is So not something I wanted to deal with when I signed onto this whole home-ownership type thing. Luckily our South neighbor, he used to be in the anti-pest business. So he's going to try and take care of them tomorrow. Going to try a more earth-friendly approach at first, hopefully that works. ( Read more... ) -

I like to ride my mot...bicycle, I like to ride my bike!
So last night I did something new, instead of riding my motorcycle to the glass studio (the usual) for the class I took, I rode my bicycle instead. It's far enough away that it's a workout for me (at least for now), but close enough I can manage (even my out-of-shape self) to still guarantee I'll get there and back alright ( Read more... )
