Restocking PhoenixFire Designs Shop

All of these – and many more! – are available for purchase at PhoenixFireDesigns.etsy.com right now. Don’t forget, I also gladly accept custom orders. Want a…
New at PhoenixFire Designs
Been hard at work making new items for the shop and today I got five new pieces photographed and listed! Between two new trees – a multi colored Opal and a watermelon tourmaline – and two pairs of sterling hoops (rainbow gemstone and emerald green aventurine) and even a new pair of 14k gold threader…
Love’s Surgery Tomorrow
Big day tomorrow. Love goes in for his hernia repair tomorrow. He’s nervous, I’m a wreck and the place is a disaster. Getting sick with the food poisoning was the worst timing ever since it left me in a lurch this week preparing for his surgery. Never got the tree down Sunday because I wasn’t…
January and February
Both my Garnet “January Tree” and
Hectic Holiday
Busy, busy, busy! I just haven’t had time for much lately online including the blog. Working hard on last-minute shop sales, running to the post office every day to mail out completed orders, trying to get the last of our own holiday shopping and such done, normal household errands to run, and I still have…

PhoenixFire Designs Updates
Love’s doing well, sore but healing. What’s not doing so great is the finances since we had to spend $187 Thursday for the surgery that no one told us about ahead of time. Part of that money was earmarked for our past-due power bill but now…ugh. So, I’ve been hard at work trying to get…
Love’s Surgery Good
Got there at 9am, doc was late so he didn’t even get started until after 11am, done by noon, home by about 1:30pm. Got him his pain med prescription and have been helping him get around but he’s doing ok. Sore of course but good. I’m exhausted. And starving. Haven’t really eaten today and I’ve…
Post Thanksgiving Is Busy
Things are getting busy around here. First, it’s the weekend after Thanksgiving, so that means the holiday season is officially on. *chuckles* We’re trying to clean up the apartment to get ready for a tree. Problem is that we want to put it in a different area this year – in the “dining room” part…
Ho! Ho! Holiday Wishes 2011
I’ve participated in Holiday Wishes for about 5 or 6 years now. The idea is simple. Post a list. Then look through other lists and see if you can grant a wish. There are no guarantees but it’s nice to try and see what you can do for someone else and maybe get something of…
Still Sick, Medical Bills & Day Job Update
So I’m still dealing with the cold that I woke up with out of nowhere on Saturday. My poor lips are all cracked and split, my nose is red and scaly and now everything is turning to chest congestion so I’ve added coughing up nasty crap to my runny nose. Super fun and oh so…
Monday
Ok, so it’s Monday. And busy week ahead. First, the Honda. Love talked to a friend who gave a mechanic recommendation. Looked him up on Google and he’s got 10, 5-star reviews. Everyone says he’s honest and fair priced. Love’s friend has been going to him for years. So I’m waiting on AAA right now…
