Pt. II: How I Stayed In Love With Beads

So, I got bit by the beadbug.  And the urge to create was immense.  But I might not have kept on creating and gotten to the point where I now find myself, if not for my best friend, J.  Known her since high school, still see her every weekend.  And I’m grateful to her for…
