This Could Be Dangerous

My New Toy: OK - All you well seasoned jewelry artists out there - don't laugh! Many times, I have walked away from some bits and pieces/found objects out there, that I thought would make a pretty piece of jewelry, because I did not have the right tools. Well - I broke down and bought "Me" a present. Started out with one with only one speed, but realized with only one speed and it being 35,000 (fast) - in my hands, that could be dangerous.
So, back to the hardware store and ended with with this - which has variable speeds starting as low as 5000 to 32000. So hopefully I can work with it without losing a finger or 2.
One problem here - I am intimidated by any type of power tool. I already have a regular drill, but it is big and heavy, and I - well lets just say it makes me nervous. Soooo - decided this one might be a little more user friendly for jewelry. Now - I need to get my taxes filed, and get my piddling refund back to justify spending the money.

Just a Ramble: Ole Man Winter has returned ! When I got up this morning it was 27 with a wind chill of 15. As I sit here typing it is 32 - the high for the day. I hope anyone that had daffodils in bloom, got them picked and inside before the cold blast came thru. This time last year, we had snow - don't want a repeat.

It is that time of the year again. The birds eat berries, sit in the trees that overhang my patio and you can guess the rest..........

What makes it worse, it is to cold to hook up the hose and hose it off.

Hope you are enjoying the weekend and staying warm.
