Today started out nice and productive. I sat down to play with some beads, and a pendant I’ve had for about five years now. It’s a beautiful Mexican Crazy Lace Agate with more red in it than usual. Inspiration finally hit me today so I ran with it, and came up with this.

Then my mellow day took a turn. A single phone call that, well, made my head spin to put it nicely. I was angry, truly angry, for the first time in YEARS. Yes, it’s been years since I’ve been genuinely completely 100% angry. I’ve been miffed, pissed, annoyed, and aggravated. But, not angry. I vented. Then sat with my anger, let it wash over me and focused it in to something more productive. A piece of jewelry. Let me tell you, fire was not the first word that I stamped on that charm, it was just the most publicly acceptable word that I ended up with. It conveys the mood perfectly, in my opinion.

So, I there’s really no guessing to my mood. Well, what WAS my mood. Now? I’m nice and calm after some beading therapy, of course!
