I’d never heard that particular idiom (link for the origin of this phrase can be found here), but – I’m happy, so go ahead – call me Larry … Great week! Good food/family time, a bit of sunshine in the pool, lots of romp time with the pooches, and I’m pleased with my studio work …

Kicking around the idea of playing with web-code again … maybe to add a storefront to my facebook page, or to my website, since I can’t add it to this site. (Darn drawbacks to wordpress.com, anyway. If my ramblings [blog] were on Blogger, I could easily add a shopping page. But, IMO Blogger has drawbacks, …
There she is – acting like a BEACON, calling ALL WHO WOULD LISTEN to the ER this weekend!!! The good news … one GIANT Supermoon – AND(!) one weekend closer-to-retirement. Oh … and … I did good for my patients; no one died; I successfully found non-existent veins for IV’s; I was a customer-service …
Must have been tired yesterday when I was playing in the studio … I pulled my latest Welcome Yoda sign out and was initially pleased! Here are both irid signs: And then, as I was trying to catch the irid-flash on the (more square) Yoda, I finally realized why I couldn’t see it … It’s …

but – still being productive. After seven phone calls, I have the next doctor’s appointment set, this time with an academic dermatologist (yeah, I didn’t realize there are different types either) … I see him in 6 weeks. Lordy, here’s hoping everything stays stable and the fever stays at bay. As a healthcare worker – …

It means I’m producing! Here’s my finished Welcome Yoda sun-catcher/sign … Not bad – I like it, and I know what I will do differently next time: And iridescent platters (Yay!): And more dichro badge reels: Of course, it also means sitting at the computer cropping photos, creating ‘fun’ descriptions for the listings …
Another good day! After sleeping like the dead for 11 hours, I welcomed the twins to summer. The family enjoyed our lobster dinner – wrapped it up with chocolate cake topped with frosting crack (- what’s not to love?)! Played with all my pooches. Then, off to the studio I went. I like my Star-N-Moon …

Mixed results in the studio today, but overall – I’m happy. My irid platters are cooling in the kiln as I type … but that didn’t stop me from catching a quick peak/picture: HaHa!!! Much better … not perfect, but I like them! And, I have a mini tray fire-polishing in the little kiln. We’ll …

WWU: Point taken, Oh-Great-One! I live and work in a podunk, rural community. I take that for granted. The fact that, as an ER nurse in my ‘lil county – we don’t often see or care for ‘SICK’ kids. The ones that your heart breaks for … because they’re fighting metastatic cancer. It’s such a …

[Fingers Crossed!!!] My irid platters are back in the kiln … this is where I blew it last time. Here’s hoping the kiln-Gods are pleased with me today … I’ll find out tomorrow. I moved my zentangle badge reels/pendants along. I capped one (you’re not supposed to, but I like it), ground edges on a …
