Beware of the computerized censors!

FB has some pretty bizarre rules. It's ok for thousands of posts about riots & looting for the BLM movement but make an innocent joke and off to their jail you go. 

A friend posted this "sink" made from a transmission housing with a quip that basically said "Look what my husband installed in our guest bath". Everyone was laughing & joking. I commented "I would ki II my husband if he did that". The post was immediately removed and I was banned for 24 hours for "inciting violence"!!! It was a JOKE!!!

I immediately protested but their wise computers deemed I had incited violence therefore the punishment would stand. I then appealed to the standards board. That decision could take a year, if they even agree to look at it. About 6:30 PM tonight my banishment will be done BUT if I have another infraction within 12 months my account will be suspended indefinitely. It's CRAZY times we live in  :-(

Art classes in Pahrump, NV

Most of my friends communicate with me on Facebook but I recently received an email saying she had looked at my blog. I knew I hadn't posted in "awhile" but didn't realize just how long it truly had been. Moving to a new town and starting basically 2 businesses has been quite time consuming. I'm working on an actual website for a new url www.randicase.com. It is NOT live yet. Hope to have it done by year end.

In the meantime - I am teaching art classes in my studio in Pahrump, NV. Here's a listing of my schedule into January 2017. Friend me on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/randi.case to see up to date listings and be able to join a class!

Blog malfunction

Don't know what's going on but my blog won't allow me to update my calendar. I'm going to try re-installing. In the meantime, my fall schedule is:

BCAG Winter Artfest
November 9 & 10, 2013
9 AM - 4 PM
Boulder City Recreation Center
900 Arizona St., Boulder City, NV
I had tentatively planned Randi's Merry Magpie Christmas on December 7th. Unfortunately my Framing School is December 7-10. I've wanted to attend for a long time and the opportunity finally presented itself. I'll be a Certified Master Framer upon completion. I'm looking at other choices and will update if another date is chosen.

Downsizing crafting supplies

I’ve decided to do a major downsizing of my craft supplies.  Will be placing a LOT of craft supplies, wood pieces/shapes, wood plaques, doll bodies, doll hair & much more on my driveway Saturday April 27^th about 8 AM.  EVERYTHING will be FREE.  What isn’t gone will be taken to the dump Sunday.  I have far too much and it just won’t fit in my downsized house.

Please spread the word.  1600 W. Calvada Blvd, Pahrump

Thanks.

Randi

I'm really still here!

A belated Happy New Year to all.  Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving & Christmas. 

The last few months have been crazy busy for me.  My husband and I skipped Christmas because we started moving mid November.  Still not done but close.  We purchased a house in Pahrump, NV.  Small town, low population, no traffic, low cost of living.  We felt it was a great place to retire.  We're certainly not ready to retire but took the plunge while the real estate market was down.

Now the task of prepping our Reno home for sale is in full swing.  Painted the exterior this last summer because of the 2 weddings held in our backyard.  Starting the interior painting today.  New tile floor going down in master bath and then thorough cleaning.  My hope is to list it with a realtor sometime in February.

Many contacted me for Christmas special orders.  Unfortunately I couldn't create anything because my studio was in boxes.  I will email each of you next week to see if you want to cancel or not.  No pressure.  The fault is mine.  I appreciate all of my customers and hope you will continue to enjoy my creations.

Well, painters scheduled to arrive at 7:30.  Need to get in gear.  Have a great day.
