Fibromyalgia Awareness Day, May 12th

Next Saturday is Fibromyalgia Awareness Day.  Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain illness characterized by aches, pains, stiffness, possible fatigue, possible digestion problems, sleep problems, & a ton of other possible conditions.  Roughly 7 Percent (millions) of the US population currently lives with it.  

For a quick education, view the trailer of "Living with Fibromyalgia: A Journey of Hope & Understanding", a story of the Director's mother's life with the disease, along with 7 other Fibro patients.  If you feel like supporting, 10% of DVD profits go directly to the National Fibromyalgia Association, or if you're low on cash, view at one of these locations.

Hi Guys!
Sorry it's been sooooo long!  We've been switching blog platforms & in the process lost our entire archive:(  Anyways, we're back up again & of course hope to keep this going on a more normal basis.  Earring of the Month Club memberships have been going strong (FYI: May EOM's will ship late this week & early next.) AND, I've started making buttons of vintage do-dads, watch parts, sparkles, & great bright colors.  They actually made me giggle while I was photographing them.  Thank god for cheap thrills, eh?
Wish you all a warm & sunny Spring,
Jenny
