I accomplished a lot on my box yesterday. The interior is coming together very well and by next week, I should be able to begin working on my silk. I put in a request for translation for a two-sentence blurb that I think I'll want to etch on some copper for this project. It appears that the normal translator is back from Holiday, so I should get a faster turnaround this time than I did for the last translation I requested.
We still have not received our bills for our property taxes. It is currently the 22nd of April, and they are due on the 15th of May. I have usually paid them by this time and I'm getting quite anxious about getting this into my hand. I could go on-line, and may try that this weekend, but I'm not sure that would accomplish anything more. There was an article in the newspaper about 4-6 weeks ago about how the property tax statements would be delayed, but that the due date would still be the 15th of May. It's hard to believe that the State is that incompetent - then again...it is government at it's "not" finest.
Today's Beading For A Cure auction pieces feature work by Charlene Burke (top) and Gail Golden (bottom). Although I can't recall having ever met either of these two ladies, it is evident that their skill levels are quite high and their visions of beauty are strong. Remember to bid high - not only does it go for a good cause, but you will be receiving something of great beauty.
