Rosemary Basil's BEAD GUMBO BEADTIQUE RISES FROM THE MUCK!"
UPDATE: 10/06
See KATRINA LUCKY BEADS at the *NEW* Ebay store!
Dear Friends,
As many of you know, I lost everything to Katrina when the levy broke two blocks from my home. Water rose to 10' and stayed 3 weeks rotting everything that was pretty much smashed anyway. All my beloved plants and teddy bears, all my jewelry, art, crafts, beads and supplies, photos, hard drive, furniture, collectibles, clothing....GONE!
It happened so suddenly I am lucky to be alive. The water broke the door down at 7 am. and pinned me behind bookshelves but luckily I managed to swim up to the second floor where I was rescued later that evening in a boat only to spend the night and all day without water on a bridge in City Park. Shelters later, I find myself in sunny California, trying to rebuild my life. Still in a hotel, I hope to have a new garden on my tiny balcony...
I have so much to say but have been unable to write much...I apologize to my readers for not keeping up the sites. I have been trying to replace things I need and was lucky to have had a few beads and things recovered before they gutted the place, but nothing major. I hope to write about my experience and also continue making more beaded bracelets to sll here on Ebay.
For now, I just want to thank all of you who have written or sent me things, and all the kind-hearted Ebayers out there too! GOD BLESS!
Hugs, flowers and teddy bears,
Rose
