I think I'm missing a virtue

It's been a productive day so far....I have a kiln full of beads from this morning, I ran some errands and stained the wood for my next illuminated piece...now I'm in the patiently wait mode while the beads cool and the stain dries....hmmmm, something I've never been good at.

To help pass the time....here's a quick picture of the beads for my next illuminated piece....I'm hoping they help produce that warm light that's so cozy in a dimly lit room!!
.......I think I will go and check to see if the stain is dry....(patience is not one of my strong points...)
