    I read in the thread that he said she is the name of his ex-girlfriend, who he shared the MSE acount with originally. I hope she doesn't come back and get confused :D

    I made a couple of illusion necklaces when I was beading, no-one showed any interest in them.

    Beanie, that's why I always put words like normal in ' ' .

    Elfen, my psych explained it that the quet is a mood stabiliser so it stops the lows as well as the highs, that's why when I was getting depressed she upped that. But every psych I see has a different idea of what works and what doesn't!
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Thanks Ames I've made one and it was hard work, don't think i will be making any more for a while :)

    Made it in pearls and crystals

    I'm now going to take some painkillers and go to bed,

    I've had all my jewellery stuff etc back from Jo today, so need to sort what i have here now, (which is not much) see what i can recycle (stuff that hasn't sold in the last year) and see what beads i have to make. Am a bit sad that she can't do the jewellery no more, will miss the company on the stall, and she made some cracking stuff.
