Doll Journey: The spirit of Beaded 2 Bless

Image
When beads become a blessing, you have hit the nail on the head. Today I received some "happy mail". You know the kind of mail that brings a gift or an unexpected nicety instead of a bill or application. In the mail I found the first 3 packages from my "Bead Sisters" containing feathers! Wow, 3 at one time, the power of numbers doesn't fall dead on the brain. Let me back track a moment .  I sent a post on a yahoo group  that  asked for urgent help making feathers. I asked  those interested to email me for more details. What they didn't expect was that I wanted them to create the feathers while listening to praise/ worship music, the word or while they prayed. I knew that some might be completely turned off at the idea but I was not ready for the amazing words that came from some of the participants. Many of them said they "would be honored" to help. One lady was "blown away" by my request as she hasn't been a Christian for very long....

Doll Journey: Doin' tha butt

Image
It would seem my time spent in New Orleans DID have a monumental impact on my perspective on life! It was there that I learned how to "Do tha Butt", much to my mother's dismay. For those who may not know, it is a rather provocative dance that is still a whole lotta fun to do! Well, while I was at the Temple Bead Retreat I was doin' tha butt in a different way... It was a whole lotta fun to tell other beaders who asked what I was doing that, "I was doin' tha butt". Sometimes you just have to get your giggles in for the day.  Laughing is good therapy and beading is even better therapy because you have someone else to share the joke with. Blessings
