Chainmaille Fire

I loathe being ill. It's the biggest cause of brain atrophy that I know, and one whole week of being unwell has sapped my energy beyond belief. However, I'm getting back there and trying to track down an errant Muse - which is probably on vacation in a lovelier climate than the one I'm ensconced in at present, but that's beside the point.

My shipment of chainmaille rings from Blue Buddha Boutique FINALLY came through, thank GOD - it did about a month ago but the hassle of trying to get it out of the post office customs department should be a plot for some slapstick theatrical production. -Why- in the world wouldn't an official letter put an official address on it, thereby cutting down on the necessity of running to and fro between TWO customs departments (the one in the post office and the Customs Department proper)?

Anyway, this is one of the projects I completed while on vacation - Rebeca, your rings are marvellous! I love the colours!

Mei: They're aluminium jump rings! The colours are so lovely too, even nicer in person.

Tammy: I'm ever so happy to be getting better. Thank you!

Swati: I'm up and about and getting to where I'm not tired all the time any more, yay! Thank youuuu.

Shay: Ooooh yes I am having lots of fun. It's an education in being gentle with pliers too; they scratch otherwise then there's this HOWL that arises from my room that can be heard for miles...
