Still rollin’ …
WWU: Busy weekend! Sick folk, crabby folk, whiney folk … Wow! Sure glad it’s over … With it’s limited resources, my little stand alone ER has unique challenges when it’s that busy! Flipping back to ‘glass artist’ role – I’m still enjoying my successes (for the moment, anyway) … A couple more fun spoon rests: …
Relaxed, playing–and on a roll …
A great couple of evenings with my kids (both the two and four-legged kind), my kilns and my studio has me rolling into the weekend feeling great! I have pictures: Romp time with the pooches … DH caught a quick pic, calling me the ‘dog whisperer’. The last remaining (Neo) pups are moving on …
Wednesdays … WTH?!?
A much better Wednesday than last week (!), but still with some tension and stress (darn teenagers anyway) … For now, I’ve locked myself in the studio, armed with a cup of Café Mocha – to get some de-stressing/me time.

Cold studio … But
… I am ready for Christmas II (with my dad’s side of the family) … Yep, the house is in order, presents made and wrapped (I can FINALLY put away my wrapping paper for the year), laundry ALL caught up (no small feat with a family our size), puppy photo-shoot/correspondence complete for the week … …
Productive … but not with glass
Darn it! But – I did just pay the bills. “The house is ours for another 30 days, honey” – I yelled out to DH, as I do every month. And, I saw my primary care physician today … I get to enjoy reduced premiums for another year. Plus – I’ve lost a couple of …
