owwwww
I spent 3 hours straight last night making a double pair of earrings, and the whole time I had my arms propped on the edge of the desk -- BIG MISTAKE. Afterward, my hands were numb and tingly (pins & needles) for at least an hour and a half and then painful, swollen and stiff for another 2 hours and they're STILL not all better. I have stuff I want to write but it will have to wait... I don't want to put my hands to work again 'til they're all better. Fortunately the earrings are awesome! (pictures hopefully soon) and no one can ever say I haven't suffered for my art. ;-)
