Oh my gosh....San Diego Superior Court is reading my blog.......

Otherwise, what else would explain THIS.......

Who else gets a jury service notice a mere 2 months after already serving?!?  As we all know, I was pretty upset about not getting chosen. If you don't know the sad tale, you can read it all here. I have to wonder......is someone down at the courthouse having some regrets about just tossing me aside with no regard to my legal knowledge and acumen.  Hmmmm..... Obviously, there must be a trial with my name written all over it.  It's probably a complicated one.  Most likely a wicked combination of a broken car lease combined with a dogbite, unpaid cellphone bill and thrown out personal belongings.  And, they know the only one able to sift through all the funny business is me.  Well, you know....it's going to be hard to woo me back.  If they think they can just call me up and think I will come running back to their open, judicial arms, they've got another thing coming.  I've moved on with my life. And, it's going to take a lot more than two free trolley tickets and a 2 hour lunch to entice back......well, frankly, a 2 hour lunch....by myself, does sound rather good.....hmmmm....maybe I am pretty easy to woo back......

Ok, on to the crafty matters at hand....

I never got a chance to finish showing my Easter Swap Items.  The first nine items were shownin this post.  Here are the other four.......

This cute little Sping Chick is from the uber talented Beth Quinn of Beth Quinn Design.  If you have never been lucky enough to see her work, jump right over to her web site and check out all her incredible art......simply beautiful.....

I just love this next piece from Debra at Hop Hop Jingle Boo.  She creates wonderful paper mache art figures....check out her blog. Thanks Debra! 

Well, look what's up next...... A pretty package from none other than Heather of Pretty Petals.....

She created these amazing feather wreaths that are topped with vintage flowers.   It is just exquisite!  Thanks so much Heather..... I just love it! 

And last but certainly not least.....A sweet little teacup nest from Cerri at Little Pink Studio.   So adorable & sweet! Thank You Cerri!!! 

On the same note, I'm not sure if anyone remembers but I did earrings for the swap.  It was a change in plans due to my getting sick, but now I'm so glad it happened that way.  It totally inspired me to clean off the jewelry section of my craft table (the section that never gets shown in pictures because it was so piled high with junk), spend a few hours cleaning all my tarnished silver to a bright shiny glow and reorganize everything to see what I actually have.  I was so excited by having a clean, organized work space that I actually created a few earrings and played around with some different ideas.  I had bought these beads below so long ago I forgot that I even had them.  I'm going to create something with them.  What....I'm not sure.  But at least I have space now to do it.

Here is one of the new pair I worked on over the weekend.......

I'll post some more pictures tomorrow because I promised this boy, who is hovering over my shoulder, time on the computer.  Talk to you later!

Very interesting! Is there a policy about not serving again so soon? CT policy is two years between service dates. Though if you do want to go....

Jury duty is a funny story at our house! I am NOT a US Citizen and declare so on EVERY summons but still get a summons notice every couple of months. Hubby who IS a US Citizen has recieved TWO in the whole 15 years we have been married!!!
Love the ear rings!!!
