I found these at the local fabric and craft shop. I didn't buy all of them, but I'm looking forward to making several necklaces and see if I can make a few extra dollars this summer.
I have been feeling the effects of the economy at my job recently. This last pay period, I've only accumulated around 40 hours. That's two weeks, folks. NOT fun. I don't have the luxury of another household income.
I shouldn't complain. I should be thankful that I have a job. Period. But the people that I pay my bills to don't seem to understand that. I don't believe the people that say the recession is over. I think last year was only the first wave of several. More like ripples in a pond after dropping a big rock.
All I can do, is be strong for my kids, keep on working when they need me, and make pretty things to remember the world is, after everything else is said and done, still a beautiful place.
