The heavenly Ms Carmen Rose

Oh dear, apparently I have died and there is a eulogy page on the internet in my honor.  (or is that in my horror?!)

And I quote: 

“Welcome to paradise Carmen Rose and welcome to the most peaceful place this side of heaven. I know that your mommy misses you so much right now so let her know that you are really not to far away and that you are ok. Sleep in peace Dear Carmen Rose and sleep with the angels.”

Uh… EWWW!  I’ve made it to a peaceful place, but certainly not to heaven.  I don’t know whether to pout or cheer.

And…

I am awfully curious (along with the author of this book apparently) on “Who killed Carmen?”  Yes, it is a baffling murder mystery.

Carmen rose surrenders

But maybe this artwork bearing my name explains it all.

Yeah, I could see that.  I was raising my hands in surrender, but the police thought that was a gun in my hands and just shot me dead.  But that’s alright, those cat ears on my head would be a little disconcerting for anyone.

Me?  Catty?   

The good news is that once Ginger Sister has moved off to merry ol England (grieve morn and wail!) I shall visit her and she will take me to lunch here:

It is adorable!  I want one of these!

I'm wearing a pair of earrings with my name in wire that I just made.  THey are pretty long, the longest of the two is four inches.  I had a spool of 16 gauge aluminum wire in my desk drawer.  A few minutes with my jewelry pliers and a couple Swarovski crystals later and I'm hanging my own name from my ears.  I'm happy.  What do you think?

Yay!  I enjoyed making these sugar cookies the other day.  (And even more fun photographing them and making them into my banner.)  Each one is different even if they are stylistically consistent.  It is fun to make things that people will use to show each other how much they care.  Someone out there will be delighted to be on the receiving end of these.  (I hope!)
