I made 6 necklases (mens, ladies and child size) of crushed black opal in glass heart shaped bottles and a large Coober Peddy vintage cabochon necklace of intense color. Also finished details on the 5 lbs opal seascape. I found that sealing the black opal in clear detergent allows the vivid fire to move in a slower motion. I do the work standing up and it quiets the mind like cartooning.

The good news about the pandemic is were down to only 400 deaths per day over here. Yaay! I have no fears of the monkey pox epidemic. Whatever Hirshall Walker has, I hope it doesn't spread. He said people are worried about gas and high groceries. Why are groceries getting high anyway and what are they taking?
