Thoughtful Thursdays: Thoughtful People!

A couple of years ago, I attended the Squam Art Workshop in New Hampshire. Throughout the weekend, I would often hear squeals of joy as people found randomly placed rocks painted with thoughtful sayings. I discovered that the "Rock Fairy" a.k.a. Kim Mailhot, had created these stones and lovingly placed them throughout the camp for others to find. Now... how thoughtful is that?

On the very last day, while on the path to our Dining Hall, there it was... all pink and smooth and just waiting for me... my courage! And it turned up just in time, because it was something I'd been looking to find... for a very long time. I never forgot Kim and her effervescent, caring, sharing personality. And I still have the rock... right in my dressing room... where I can see it every morning.

Who says there aren't thoughtful people out there? Has anyone ever done something selfless for you? I'd love to hear about it!

Ooooohh... Pretty, Pretty...

Went to the Innovative Beads Expo this weekend with my mom. She's retired and makes jewelry on the side... so she's a good one to have along. Mom has been to this show so many times that she's an expert on who to buy what from. With my newfound inspiration from the Fall classes I took at Squam... I had a strong desire for lots and lots of pearls. Aren't they beautiful?! Love the robin's-egg blue...
