Still making things. I was waiting for more leather to get here (I'm all out of cow) so while I was waiting I made a bunch of little things, including this koi pin.

I thought I'd try something different & made it in sepia tones; red ochre and black on a neutral leather fish. Up in Etsy of course.

I also got a wonderful gift in the mail from my friend Elsie. It's a vintage-looking butterfly cameo necklace and I love it!

It even goes with the silly frumpy sweatshirt I'm wearing today...thank you Elsie! *hug*

I was in a great mood but then, Charlotte came home from school. She's taking an advanced photography class & today, someone stole her camera right out of her locked locker. It wasn't actually her camera; it belonged to my father. An extremely valuable Nikon with all the bells & whistles...worth over $1000. I am livid & heartbroken.

Seriously...no words.

The lockers can be pried open. Frankly I think we have a case for litigation here 'cause they are old lockers...the kind with combination locks built into them. The combinations apparently do get changed from year to year but the locks themselves are old & rickety.

I'm just SICK about it...been crying all night. My Mom was so happy to let Char borrow that VERY valuable old camera. It's not replaceable 'cause they don't even make them anymore. When my Mom finds out it's going to kill her. :-(
