It's a full moon outside tonight ~ there was a ghost of a halo around it. Last night, the halo was huge and bright. I bet it took up 1/4 of the sky.

I finally have local internet access and don't have to call long distance to Nashville all the time. I kept my Netzero access, just in case ~ plus I don't want to go through the pain and hassle of switching everything over to a new e-mail addy yet again. I swear, if I believed in it, I'd think that it was almost sinful to be able to surf without really having to keep such a close eye on the time and how much I have left for the month.

It's happened. I got to thinking again. (EEK!) I've decided that I want a climbing rose and I want it to accent the flowers I'm going to put in the front yard. I can see it in my mind, climbing up, up, up a tall pole and spreading out in the air over the yard with its white blooms going everywhere. I started working on the place I want it in today but it is a mess ~ honeysuckle is everywhere. I discovered that underneath this mound of honeysuckle is the remains of an absolutely huge rose bush...evidently, the honeysuckle chocked it out. It just made me even more determined to get rid of the stuff.

I also bought some cheap craft wire today so I can practice doing spirals and cages before I buy the good silver wire. Cages don't seem to be that tough to do ~ it just takes practice to get them right. Spirals are even simpler. I think I will buy several large stone beads when I finally get to the Bead Hut and make pendants out of them, using spirals as a base. Next, I want to learn to wrap those donuts I have. I thought I would never have any use at all for donuts but now, I see endless possibilities...

Well, I think that will be it for tonight. Maybe the next entry will be a little more cohesive...I just needed to ramble with no structure to it tonight.
