So, I’m trying to embrace all things I’m supposed to be embracing. Meanwhile, dark, depressive thoughts keep springing up. I AM OKAY! I’m just trying to figure some sh*t out. I am Ukrainian by birth. Muchly disregarded by the birth mother, but I always felt that pull! However, at this time – it is not …
We had our big snow storm. It produced, but nothing overly dramatic. The pups had fun romping through it, though. Meanwhile, we continue to play in the ceramic studio. DH made a Batman mug. It fired okay (with glazes), but we’ve definitely had some better pieces coming out of our kilns. And here is our …
So, today’s update is more about photo sharing – with a little of this and that thrown in … I’m creating in the glass studio again. I had a request for some rose night lights and spoon rests. And, I’m playing with an idea for these gnome ornaments and glass paints … we’ll see if …
Oh my goodness, 2021 went out with a bang! There is a big work story that I’m not quite ready to share, but we can cover Christmas, food/recipes, clay studio, other life stories and cute photos. So – here we go … Prepping for Christmas 2021, DH and I opted for more-than-not homemade gifts. So, …
But I’m back. I’m sorry. I’m doing the best that I can. The nursing toll is feeling heavy this year. Add to it: Mandatory competency deadlines; another level of hot flashes; and T-8 days until Christmas … OMGosh! Got through my birthday, Thanksgiving, figuring our pottery kiln problem, annual work competencies … And here I …
Lots to share! (Yep, the picture post I talked about…) I’m so excited. Our garden is producing: Oh Summer, I love you!!! We have Cornish chickens (meat chickens) … So, hear me out. I researched and grew into this phase, FOR A WHILE – on my OWN. One …
This catch-up game is tough – so many photos. The garden is rocking, and I’m refraining from a full photo tour … (you’re welcome!) But, I do need to share a few photos … My experiments are working (so far, anyway)! My sweet potatoes finally grew some slips, and are now in their own pot …
I’m not sure why I would decide to develop abdominal cellulitis now. I don’t know how one goes about creating abdominal cellulitis … But, I’ve been quiet lately, in part – because that’s what I’ve been doing/GROWING??? Absolute craziness! Not what I had programmed. But, there you have it – this body has it’s own …
Cuz – I can. I’m on vacation. No – we’re not going anywhere. But I’m taking a much-needed break from (ER) work… We’ve had a beautiful SUN day. DH shared his plans to build a deck on the pond … My dad has a birthday coming up … 71 years young. So, I made a …
It turns out, you can’t play with your torch if your OXYGEN tank is empty … Nope! Doesn’t matter how much of that glass glob you place into your ‘hottest flame’ … This is what you get … And now, I am waiting on my (new) O2 tank arrival(!); Meanwhile murrini is on hold!!! But …
