Thanks to all of you who sent me "better health" wishes and for being understanding about the issue coming out a few days after the 1st this month. Maybe it was getting the news that Carol Duvall is retiring that did me in. She deserves it, we all know, but somehow I am not adjusting to having her go. Bless you, Carol, for all you've done for polymer clay. We love you and we'll miss you. You are timeless in our hearts.
