the baby sleeps while product is transported
this has been one hell of a week in a string of stressful weeks. I'm involved in a real estate transaction that oscilates between "YAY WE ARE CLOSING" and "uh-oh, we hit a major snag". it looks like the last snag has been worked out today. hoo-ray for that.

and my glass mosaic tile import-resell buisness has had a few big sales and the product arrived on time, after customs caused me yet another delay and charged me for them to inspect my product. customs did agree it was a beautiful product...

people often ask me how can I get so much done WHILE caring for a 1.5 yo toddler.

some days he can be very cooperative.

this new tile is a clear glass mixed with stone, the pieces are thick and nearly little cubes.

$13 a sq ft. would work great as a shower surround or a backsplash.

I've enjoyed coffee from my HIGHLAND'S INN mug (carmel by the sea, ca) for nearly 15 years. those days are gone.
