Merry snow day, Christmas, and happy lower expectations!

It started snowing in the morning. At first, it looked like it would just be a dusting; enough to cover the worst of the brown, bland landscape, but not enough to interfere with normal life. 

But it kept snowing. 

And snowing. 

And snowing.

A very special necklace

I've collaborated with oNecklace twice before, so when they approached me a couple of months ago and asked if I'd like to work with them again for Christmas, I didn't hesitate.

I knew that I wanted a circle necklace, and then I found one that was really special: a necklace with a signature engraved.

The rules do not exist

A couple of weeks ago I read something that stuck with me. It was an article titled "Run the dishwasher twice", and it's written by a woman who is battling depression. She was at a very low point, and when asked by her therapist what in particular she was struggling with, she eventually admitted that it was doing the dishes. "It's stupid, I know, but the more I look at them the more I CAN'T do them because I'll have to scrub them before I put them in the dishwasher, because the dishwasher sucks, and I just can't stand and scrub the dishes."
