Domestic Goddess …
Yep – that’s me. At least today it is … I’ve cleaned the kitchens (both), scrubbed sinks and toilets (and beat the battle with the rust stains and whatever other things were in there???) … scrubbed candle jars (since I want to make more soy candles) … and cleaned my studio! Wow … it must …
It’s Official – I’m ‘Out-There’ …
Yeah – probably that too, but what I’m specifically referring to … my site is published! YAY!! Here’s the link: http://www.claytonhillstudio.com. I know – it’s not complete yet (the shop), the gallery format leaves a little to be desired, and you have to hit your back arrow from this blog, but … it’s published! Did …
A New Endeavor … ?
Maybe … but for me, it starts with books – so, I’ve just ordered a few: I’ve always said that someday I want a hobby farm … not a lot of animals, but definitely chickens, a couple of pigs, goats, and maybe a cow. We’ll start with chickens … so starts the research phase: Building …
Zeus Bigelow … ???
Yesterday was a long day for me – but overall, a good one. We brought our new member of the family home – racing against the clock, so that I could make it to work on-time … all while dealing with the fact that he isn’t too keen on riding in the car right now. …
It’s raining, it’s pouring
But I’ll take it over snow, anyday! This post is a work-in-progress – like so many things in life … to be followed-up-upon later. It’s 2am. I’ve had such a ‘highs and lows’ kind of day: Major insomnia, combined with web design had me enthralled ‘til about 4am last night. I was on a roll, …
Good news/Bad news …
So – the good news is … I am plunging forward with my own fused glass website – php, MySQL, CSS and all. ‘Course it’s very time consuming, as I barely understand what I’m doing, but that’s ok … when my head starts spinning – I step away. The bad news … since I really …
Off to work I go …
I’m continuing to produce here in the studio … dichro pieces, blanks, nursing stuff … Now it’s time to take a break and actually be a nurse, dang it! Hoping for a smooth weekend … silly, I know, but … it could happen! Still needs work – colored glass border and final fusing – but …
Studio news … I’m on a roll
So it took some doing – a self-imposed time out, locked in my studio – but now I’m on a roll. I have badge reels and nursing-specific ideas flowing like crazy, my production kiln is kicking, I have bottles soaking for scrubbing, I have finished projects to photograph and upload … projects, projects, projects … …
Boys … arrrggghh!
I’m less than thrilled with the majority of the men-folk in my life right now … Spent several hours in the ER last night, as DH felt like his throat was swelling (after Benadryl and Motrin). I’m happy to say – all is well with him. It appears he’s decided to have panic attacks, I …
