Weighting For Health Care

And because no one seems to grasp the concept of ‘risk factor’ or ‘causation vs corellation’, this is what happens – fat people avoid seeking medical assistance because of rude, uncaring, ignorant health professionals who think all fatties are lazy gluttons, which means their health issues get worse before they get help which means they end up costing the health system more than if they had sought timely medical intervention. The problems is so obvious yet remains the (fat) elephant in the middle of the room.

HAPPY EARTHDAY!

I wonder if I should Make an Earthday cake??






I made these earrings ... a whole bunch of these but sadly I didn't get them up on aucton on time.
Perhaps they would be good teacher gifts?

Ok, I'm not much of a blogger. I'm more of a bloggee, I like to link and read others blogs.

I have a few that you all should look at, I am not going to list them here just look at my list yourself.

I have been managing my fibro, my boys, my house AND trying to figure out how to sell my items. Boy !It's hard enough for me to think let alone managing all this and more with my health the way it is.



It seems however people like my edgy pieces, like the Black Skull Rosaries.
So i am going to concentrate more on these. But its getting harder to find 6mm black beads that are affordable and the "Good black and white skull beads" I used to be able to get.



I have been making some of the seed bead pieces that i have been getting ideas for. Mainly from Bead and Button or Step by Step bead mags and others of the like.

Here is a pic of one...





I made this with Gunmetel color seed beads and blue glass cube beads with 15/o crystal line beads and black nymo thread or maybe its kevlar i dont remember. I think it came out ok.
Right now I am working on an alternet color of the same pattern bracelet. these are about 7" to 7.5"

I have been doing some more seed bead work. I kinda like these :)
The second one is made exactly like the first one except i migrated the darker beads towards the ends. It made the spiral more prominant.
