It’s gorgeous here!

I’ve been on the computer all day, setting up the ISBN, bar code, eBook and app, mocking up a cover, making a new Facebook page. It’s exhausting, but exciting, because damn! Everything looks so good. And I’m beat.

Pentagon Bangles by Jean Power

I feel a thousand times better, though, Praise Be, and am looking forward to another dawn to midnighter tomorrow- five more of them, actually, before Jean takes off.

I’m still waiting for two of the beads from the Sea Mistress and Mermaid kits. Tomorrow.

It’s windy as hell outside, and I hate that. Additionally, the temperature is about to drop 20 degrees. This is not the direction I hope to go in. Jean was so impressed by the weather today that she actually got in the POOL. Gabriella and I (being warmblooded creatures) were horrified, impressed, and (in my case) inspired. Has swimming season actually begun? By definition, YES.

The English are so cold-hardy. I’m IN, on the next warm day.

    Definitely warming the cockles of my heart to see Jean in the pool, that’s where we Canadians who hail from British ancestors get our heartiness! :)

    I’m with Cynthia. As a child I used to swim in the North Sea off Scotland and the Atlantic off Nova Scotia. My mother didn’t pull me out till my lips turned blue!

    Oh my gosh, Jean’s in the pool!!!

    Nosy question… you said you were setting up the ebook and app. What do you mean by app? I mean, I know what an app is, obviously, but I am curious to know how you set one up. Pray tell!

    Being British my self I can imagine that Tucson weather feels some what like a warm summers day for us, If the temperature is in the 70′s or 80′s that is defiantly pool weather for us :-)

    Getting excited to see my kits turn up in the mail. Two more bead colors and you have it. It must be exhausting just keeping track of where the beads are and where they need to go.
