Jewel School Friends: Summer Elements Blog Hop

Jewel School Friends: Summer Elements Blog Hop

The Blog Hop is on Have Fun  looking at all the wonderful blogs
Our Thanks to Toltec Jewels our Host.

ELEMENTS OF SUMMER BLOGHOP 6/16/2013


Thank you Toltec Jewels Our Host, for creating this blog hop  For my element I chsoe water..  The
 Reason you may ask
 Well here"s the story:

I was born in Miami Florida I was brought to swim and enjoy the gulf, the Alantic ocean lakes and pools
amd was in the water just about my whole young aldult life.  I swam at ventian pool in Coral Gables and just about called the pool my home until 1980.  the water was my energy my peace .  no matter where I am during my diffrent stages of life I am drawm to water.  My Family is spread all over New England and the east coast  my mother painted the when I was in my 20 somethings.  you see families can be drawn to the water.
Hawaii is so beatuful the color of the water reminds me of turquoise and ble topaz I loved being able to swim in the Pacific eventhough it was just for a few days .  Water can help heal your heart an regenerate your soul.
This necklace was made due to the need to feel like I was near the water it is made with pearls , crystals , , and rough amythest and the focal is a a Sarowski starfish  it is the third necklace I made .   Eventhough it is simple just beading and stringing it is me just a simple girl longing to get back to her water

My husband doing finding things are getting quite difficult to manage.  It seems everytime I turn around something is happening to us.  Both of us are on FMLA do health issues And we have a credit cards ripped off Inter accounts hacked.  So we're trying to decide what to do from here Do I give up making jewelry Working as a nurse has beacoming recently difficult.  
I normally don't talk about these things But I just don't know what to do anymore
I don't want to be angry and I don't want to be sad   But if anybody has any ideas I would gladly listen Hugs Gina
