Don't Stop Believin'

I watch WAY too much TV!  I am always busy with kids, working, laundry, feeding three teenagers, cleaning up, ...........(the list goes on and on) that my outlet and escape is television.  I have a lot of favorite shows and have to admit that besides being addicted to all of The Real Housewives I am also addicted to The Bachelor and The Bachelorette.  I knew Emily was going to pick Jef!  I hope it works out for them.  The odds are against them just because of the history of the show, but maybe they will be the next Trista and Ryan that have actually worked.

I made this necklace out of a pendant that says "LOVE" on one side and "XOXO" on the opposite.  I think it is appropriate for someone in love or looking for love.

As far as music, the design of the pendant reminds me of this "Journey" cover:




The song "Don't Stop Believin'" was on this album after being on the former Escape album.  I thought this was interesting:

While the lyrics mention being "born and raised in south Detroit", the area that would be considered south Detroit is actually the Canadian city of Windsor.^[35] Steve Perry has said, "I tried north Detroit, I tried east and west and it didn't sing, but south Detroit sounded so beautiful. I loved the way it sounded, only to find out later it's actually Canada."  (wikipedia)

My daughter and older son were in a school variety show this spring and did this song to a really cool dance.  I know they are my kids and I am partial, but our choral group is known for this variety show and it has been a sell out each year for 20 years.  I am so glad they love and appreciate this kind of music!

This necklace is short in length, but it can be lengthened and a clasp added if you would like it longer.  It is also on a double chain.

The back is cute too!

I made these next two pair of earrings out of guitar picks and chain.  I just made a hole at the top of the pick and added the chain.

I love mixing the colors of chain!
