Interesting entry Barb. You have a very handsome grandson, I'm sure that he is quite the intelligent one also! I wish I had known that you were in DC, we aren't that far away. Oh well 2 weeks till Fort Lauderdale. See you then!!! Always beth

My Dear Barb,
I thank you for giving me the courage & strength with your words of wisdom, as I try to start the healing process of losing my child, and part of my soul. He is at peace and in no pain, and I thank "God" for that.
Bless you Barb for being my friend ~ Vonna

I'm also supposed to be in Beaded Jewelry the Complete Guide by Susan Ray which comes out in January. One of my jewelry artists used some of the flowers for her piece in the book. I haven't seen it yet but her work is fantastic as is Susan Ray's.

Comment on Maui!

Anonymous — Mon, 24 Sep 2007 07:26:01 GMT

The most primitive flowers are thought to have had a variable number of flower parts, often separate from (but in contact with) each other. The flowers would have tended to grow in a spiral pattern, to be bisexual (in plants, this means both male and female parts on the same flower), and to be dominated by the ovary (female part). As flowers grew more advanced, some variations developed parts fused together, with a much more specific number and design, and with either specific sexes per flower or plant, or at least "ovary inferior".

Maybe this will help with the 100 beads you have to make.
I quoted it. Vonna

Well, I'm reading your blog! I was just thinking about you and Pam and how we should have a get together :) I received by macaw bead from Kim Fields and it is just beautiful ~ I do need some pretty flowers to go with it - hint,hint ;0 I will try and photograph it so you can see it. Oh, and may I go to Maui? Actually, there's a bead show there in January. I think Tammy (T-beads) is going - I'm sooo jealous. Oh well, one day....in the mean time I have learned Kumihimo with beads - I must find my zen and practice. Hope all is well - tata for now :)

Maui - don't hesitate - the trip is worth it - the beauty - the history - rest relax enjoy the peacefulness in the sounds of the ocean breath in the salt air - and don't forget how many flowers are their ~
Make sure you go to the Hula Grill on the beach ~ Vacation - YES - go for it...

Barb, My condolences for your loss. I remember your stepfather well I am just trying to remember his name "Barney" sticks in my mind but I may be wrong. Give your mother my best wishes-- and if for any reason you might need anything- don't hesitate to ask. Take care and best of luck. Always Beth
