Mary Diamond

Missed? How can you MISS when I distinctly heard someone call my name out before a VOLLEY??

My sincere congratulations to you!

Thank you all for your interest ~ just a bit more, and I think I may have enough for a half order. I will make some calls later this week to determine additional interest.

Indeed ~ a very Happy Birthday to you, sir, and Many More!

My dearest Tony and Fayma ~ I am so glad you are safely home in Kentuckohiana. I look forward to seeing you Soon! Again, my sincere thanks for transport of my merchants wares, weapons, and general materials ~ and for being some of the best people I have had the opportunity to become friends with.

Did Someone say BACON???? AND CHOCOLATE??????? faints dead away, one hand raised in supplication ~ Dark, please!

M.A.d'Dogge ~ whose your poker shark brother? Handsome devil ~ I think you are ready for the Steampunk forum. It isn't bad ~ it is just such a Different look for you!

To a dear Friend ~ Happy Birthday, this year and many in the future ~ and I look forward to seeing you again soon. A Mead for you!

To fine friends and foes ~ a pleasure to know you all!

Ow! That sounds awful! I was reaming pearls earlier this summer, but I am a lazy git, so I prefer to use dremel bits ~ works lovely, much less strain, though you need to watch for overheating. If I may, back to the subject of PMC ~ I have the skill to craft what I want (my merchants seal), but am not sure I want to go tothe expense of purchasing a kiln. ANy thoughts or suggestions on firing options?

I have it Ah, Cheeky, that be a far ride for you if you are intending to use the spoon! Virginiasia to Canuckistan ~ goodness, you might as well go the other way around the world. (thanks for letting me know ~ looking forward to seeing how it meets with my blade)

OMG! Tears are running down my cheeks ~

I am most interested ~ in all but the silk velvet. Please do let me know when they might be available (pics and descriptions as well). Thank you!

ACK! LAWRENCE!!, where are you and those damn cannons? I've a mark or 2 that need quick application of a shot to the head!

My Liege! My most sincere compliments and admiration ~ the detail is wonderful.

A few images ~ Though I think my favorite is this one. Grace, standing Proud and Tall ~ nothing fazes her!

Count myself in as well ~ grounds maintenance, drywalling, painting, construction ~ willing and able.

My dear Captain Jim ~ the best of Birthdays to you, sir!

Thank you so much to my Secret Santa ~ presents received, and opened! The bauble adorns Jizo, while my nephew is being amazed by the magic growing Sea Chest. The leather coin purse is really quite lovely, and I like the detail on the embroidered muslin bag. Notepad and pen, bumper sticker, mug ~ cute items, all! Thank you, Santa!

Thank you all who tended to my dear hubby ~ I am most grateful! And thank you for all the assistance that made the Widow and the Honeymoon Suite come together ~ we are much improved for it. I, too, wish we all lived closer ~ it would make things much easier. That being said ~ I think we make one H@ll of a showing for the few times we do get together!

I really think you'd need the stuff behind glass, not rope. I agree ~ under glass. Especially in the case of rain. If I may be so bold ~ did anyone else present beside myself work the Shipwreck Ball Silent Auction at PiP 2007? From my personal experience, I would not have another Silent Auction unless it were guaranteed in stone that completion and distribution would happen at X time, as advertised. The Island Style timing of events clashed with the completion of the Silent Auction, resulting in several irritable and impatient bidders hurling verbal abuse at myself for an hour, accusing myself of mismanagement and more, as representative of the auction.

Sophia ~ you are simply Smashing as Kaylee! Very well done ~

William, dear, I am sorry ~ Yes! Your 2007 Pirates In Paradise DVD was Fantastic! I truly enjoyed seeing all the fun from last year ~ though, I would have preferred seeing You! Next year, please?

Mary, so good to hear. We were a bit worried about that one as it was not one of the items. There is always something wrapped up among the clothing! Yes, thank you, Spike! It was hidden in the voluminous folds of the mourning gown ~ I found it when I opened the gown up. Not an expensive piece, but one I cherish.

Hmmm... Lovely things, engraved sterling silver detail and butt caps, in a mahogany finished custom made red oak case, wrapped in buttery-soft chocolate deer hide? A perfect matched pair? Now, I wonder who those might belong to?
