Probably less than a day if I solely worked on one. I always have multiple projects going simultaneously. Then I take a crochet break for a year or two lolol.

I'm thinking you should set up an etsy shop or offer them on some other venue -- I would definitely be purchasing 3 of them as Xmas presents for one of my sisters-in-law!

My accountant talked me out of it bc of the reporting of taxes being a PITA for the pennies I'd make on them.

I can be found on LT!

Oh, that darned pesky Internal Revenue Code -- how about if we lobby Peter King to add a special rider to the upcoming tax legislation: the PB pet bed exemption?!

"See" you on LT tomorrow.... if I can remember what my log-in name and password are.

At the risk of being stoned to death, I just want to say:

Yesterday I took stock of the x-mas presents I've bought so far throughout the year...

Today I made a list of everything yet to be bought (with the exception of my father and his wife who can never get their act together until November -- argh!)...

Tonight I ordered a sh!t ton of stuff from the aforementioned list...

And this weekend I will begin wrapping it all...

HO HO HO!!!

DH lost his wedding ring. He got up this morning and couldn't find it. He is sure it is in the house somewhere because he thinks he remembers having it on yesterday evening at home.

Now I have to try to focus on study and an exam...
Home to search for it later

Oh no! Sorry about this TP, I hope you find it. Check under all furniture, I found mine once under a bedroom dresser. No idea how it got there lol.

Good luck on your exam too!

Yeah, we also have 4 cats and 3 dogs so it could easily be under/in anything... He is sending a picture of it to the building reception, security, and lost & found at his work too just in case.

Dreading this exam. The instructor is so bad that I actually complained to the program head and the chair. Yelling at people who ask questions is never good in a teacher...

Found!!!!

After digging through the trash cans, tearing apart couches, moving furniture, and starting in on a piece by piece search if the house DH finally found it on the table with a roll of drywall patch tape around it. No clue how it got there!

Excited~~ I recently completed the 3 'Essentials' courses online at GIA.edu, and just got a notification that my Applied Jewelry Professional (AJP) diploma is in the mail!!!!!! I don't currently plan to continue to get the GG since it would mean having to take time off work, but all these hours spent on PS meant that obtaining the AJP was relatively painless in terms of effort and yay, I get to add it to my LinkedIn! :)

Also, I am planning a 7 stone ring with Caysie with baby OECs cut by Yoram. Sooooo excited~~ It's my FINAL (FINAL!!!!) big bling project for a good long time. :appl:

Well, no grades back yet but she did grade our quizzes (finally). The class average is 60%

Not sure what they will do if the whole class fails!

I'm excited! In a little bit I'm going with 4 of my neighbors to go see a movie - murder on the orient express. I haven't been to a movie theater in ages and finally get to experience the new recliners lol.

The recliners at movie theaters make for a great viewing experience, Pinto. Enjoy!

DH and I are in NYC for an event this evening and he suggested going to IDJ tomorrow. Yukatel helped DH with a tennis bracelet purchase for me last year, so DH wants to meet and thank him while we are here. If we go, I'm going to have a blingtastic time looking at and trying on sparklies!

WOAH... wha??? The last movie I saw was Being John Malkovich. The closest thing to a vibrating chair was some kid kicking the back of mine. (Through. The. Whole. Damn. Movie.) Clearly things have *changed* since then...
