Your Bad Mood Serves Your Enemy - Dalai Lama

Sorry for the poor quality of the image, but I had to show you what my friend got me for Christmas, a little late, but who cares it is awesome.  I love, love, love reading the Dalai Lama.  Mom and I have several of his books and he is so interesting to read.  Well, my friend bought me a 365 day calendar of quotes by the Dalai Lama and I had to share Wednesday's quote (the title of the post).  I also really like the quote from Tuesday, "Whether or not you understand profound ideas, it is important to be a good person wherever you are right now."  I am usually not a profound thinker and I am not into deep thoughts, but I really like what the Dalai Lama has to say.  I don't always live what he says, but at least he gets me to thinking.

These pair of shoes I am drooling over.  This past weekend mom and I were walking through the mall and we stopped in a shoe store that I knew sold Dansko's.  I saw these and I feel in love.  I was good and didn't make off with them, but boy howdy was it hard.  You like how I went from the Dalai Lama, spiritual, to Dansko shoes, materialistic.  But those shoes are spiritual because when you put them on your feet you are wondering where they have been all your life! 

Reminder that tomorrow is the start of the sign up for the Bead Soup Blog Party.  Seriously, if you haven't participated in the past, start now!  It is so much fun!!!!  Lori, Pretty Things, is the mastermind behind this party and she does a fantastic job!

No new enameled pieces or new jewelry, sorry.  I am hoping mom and I will be in the studio this weekend.  Keep your fingers crossed for us!
