Since I was unable to see a lot of the people I normally would this spring and summer, I started gifting some of my bracelets in the hopes I could be with them this way, around their wrist, making sure they knew I was thinking about them regardless how far apart we were. For example, a highschool graduate in our neighborhood who has been our babysitter since we moved here or a good friend who recently had her first baby out of state or a cousin who recently got married and a wedding I was crushed I couldn’t be at, since it involved flying. Anyway, I am hopeful the second half of the year will be better than the first but if not, I will also have some new arm candy creations of my own to remind me I was able to express to so many loved ones how much they mean to me through this fun hobby of mine.
