Been busy...

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.

About the camera -- oh, how sickening.

The other stuff is nice.

Sickening is the right word. Losing something like that reminds me that Dad is gone too...it's all tied up together. I'm so furious I'm nauseated.
