About to try soldering some cogs onto the brass ring I made. Hopefully I can pull it off without messing it up. I think it looks ok the way it is but it just isn't steampunk without the cogs. lol.

South Park.

I am thinking that I should probably look into trademarking. blah. I hate paperwork and legal stuff.

Here is the ring I have been working on. Thinking of adding cogs around the band.

You mean they have to eat every day? You just fed them yesterday. lol. I hope the family is all doing well and that the wee one has healed from his broken arm.

I normally don't sleep much but every once in awhile I oversleep and end up with a headache. I need to find a good balance I guess. lol

I got a Dremel tool today!!! YAY!!!

Slightly frustrated but excited. Got the Dremel 4000 today with a few extra kits for jewelry making. I am trying to get an extremely difficult double stone tension set into a ring and I already cracked one of the decorative twists I had on the ring. I had to cut it and shrink the ring size. Probably better anyways since it was a size 10.5. Now it is going to be a size 8.

Welcome to the group

about to reattempt a double stone tension setting I messed up earlier. It will look awesome if I can pull it off but it is probably a higher skill level than what I am currently at. Can the GM please give me some bonus XP so I can level up? lol (gotta love the nerdy gamer jokes)

Here is my DGN wish list. http://a.co/gc7xQO5 I do have other wishlists on amazon but they are more of reminders for myself and family members who are wondering what all I have been looking at.

Got my first donation today from my mother. I also did some organizing today and made a quick little Onyx and wire necklace pendant.

As you all may be aware, I am trying to get my steampunk jewelry thing going. I started a GoFundMe page to help since I have been struggling to really get things going. Please share far and wide and let me know if you have any questions or suggestions. https://www.gofundme.com/theclockworkpiratejewelry

Ok. I will put it there. I will take down the one above.

Just got home from work a bit ago. Just chilling out a bit.

Starting to feel a little bit closer to normal. I just need to start kicking myself in the butt to get myself doing stuff again. Blah. Oh... I finally got my gems in for my jewelry making so hopefully the creative feelings come back soon.

Happy Birthday

Coffee. Lots and lots of coffee.

Feeling unappreciated and worn out. Maybe I am not as important or good as I think I am. If that's the case than I should just stop whining about it. It has sort of been a trend in my life though. I guess that is just my lot in life. Who knows? Miss you guys though. Sorry I haven't been posting much. I have sort of been in my head a lot and anti social across the board, even ignoring calls and texts from family lately.

Still feeling a bit rough. Not really depressed but not myself and kind of sick. I probably caught a bug or something and I am sure the change of seasons has some effect as well.

Let me know if you need my help with something. I have most of my daytime free.

Still not feeling myself but still pushing on. Almost numb at the moment so that is a little bit better than crippling depression.

Sorry to hear about this. Sounds like you have a raccoon problem. If you can chase the raccoons away, the kittens will feel a bit safer and may come out from under the porch. We used to have similar issues with raccoon killing barn cats back home. They can be nasty little critters.
