And since the members library is based on a four week publishing schedule, it means I have to come up with something a little different for this upcoming Friday (July 30th).<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>Monday July 26: 10:25am: <\/strong><\/span><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\">Has it been brought up that this is a 5th Friday so there will be no Tute. I have been out of the loop for a week with my grandaughter and haven&#8217;t caught up yet so curious to see if anything else has been planned??

No tutorial, right, Cindy?<\/span> <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><strong>~Carolyn-F<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>Monday July 26: 11:15am: <\/strong>Carolyn this is a 5th Friday so no bomb dropped yet. Cindy needs her time off. Now she is back to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/polymer-clay-tutor-blogging-schedule\/9671\/\">blogging on the weekends<\/a>. I&#8217;m not sure what happened there. I hope she didn&#8217;t start getting more emails at home? Her and Doug give us so much I wish there was a way we could give them something special for all they do. We need to make her take some time off even when we don&#8217;t want her to. Uuuuuggggs. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><strong>~Peggy-B<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">To tell you the truth, it&#8217;s been an insanely busy week, and at this point I don&#8217;t have any special bonus videos prepared or anything like that. So I think I&#8217;ll keep it simple for the upcoming Friday post, if everyone is OK with that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">And just so everyone knows now, the weekly Email Newsletter <em>WILL<\/em> still go out. I made the mistake of not communicating properly on one of the 5th Fridays a while back. And it actually created more work for me with all the messages that had to be returned&#8230; letting everyone know that I had in fact, <em>NOT<\/em> dropped off the face of the earth. It was stressful and flattering all at the same time, LOL.<a name=\"extramile\"><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Peggy&#8230; you said <em>&#8220;&#8230; I wish there was a way we could give (Cindy and Doug) something special for all they do.&#8221;<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Well, maybe there is Peggy. As most of you know, lately a strong focus has been put on getting the new Polymer Clay Facebook Contest up and running smoothly. I&#8217;m very pleased with how it is going.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">As I write, there are currently 1471 polymer clayers who have chosen to &#8220;like&#8221; the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/polymerclay\" class=\"external external_icon\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/polymerclay<\/a> page. And 167 beautiful project photos have been uploaded. This is super awesome&#8230; but I know we can do even better.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Perhaps on Friday, there could be a concerted effort to have as many members as possible uploading their pictures to the new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/polymerclay\/photos\" class=\"external external_icon\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook Photo Gallery<\/a>. That would qualify as doing something special for Doug and I :-)<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"background-color: #f2ecd8; width: 512px;\" border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>**************************************************************************************************<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>** Did You Know&#8230;<\/strong><\/span><\/span> <span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Members with current subscriptions to the weekly tutorial videos are always entitled to a 10% discount when purchasing 6 or more <a href=\"http:\/\/www.beadvideos.com\/back-issues\/\" class=\"external external_icon\" target=\"_blank\">back issue packages<\/a> in a single transaction.
