OK – running through the list since my last post. Last week was wonderful, with pool days every day! Got through a steady ER-nursing weekend, with a bit of a twist. Our youngest daughter came up to see me and inform she was heading back to Ghana for a ‘short visit’ (3 wks). She left …
Even with less than cooperative Michigan summer weather, I’m having a great stay-cation. I have a couple more days of ‘bumming’ before heading back to the ER this weekend … In the meantime, we had our coe90 ‘carnival’ pull. Here is the stack, with the resulting murrini and cane. We had a family gathering …
I cut some glass for a few vitrigraph pulls. Tonight we did an aqua pull. Here’s the stack, and the murrini results. I also plan to do a repeat coe90 beige pull. And I’m trying to recreate the coe96 Carnival pull, but in coe90 colors … We’ll see how well I did mixing the …
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 …
Here is the RoBo gang. They turned 4 weeks old this week, and are loving gruel! Look at those adorable mugs! That’s Linda, Newton and Viola … I had some dealings with difficult people this week – at work and at home. Why do people choose to be rude and ugly? Anyway, the mojo …
RoBo’s babies have turned three weeks old. Their eyes are open and starting to focus, ears are opening (they scare themselves when they growl or bark) and they’re getting cuter by the MINUTE!!! DH and I got together with some of my work gang this week. Many have moved on from our ER ( – …
We got thru tax season 2019. It was a painful week, but we beat the deadline. We did ‘OK’ this year – we felt the tax law changes, but came out ‘winning’ … For whatever reason, this year’s tax prep was UNBELEVIABLY painful. I never wanted to miss a deadline as badly! So, it’s Friday …
So, just to shake things up a bit this week, DH fully embraced a senior moment. He gave Clyde his dose of naproxen, instead of Clyde’s dose of Zyrtec. Meanwhile, I was cruising along at 80MPH, whistling a happy tune in the studio … And came to a SCREECHING STOP! ‘You did what?’ Ninety minutes …
I spent the better part of the week bringing the spoon rests thru to their final slump. All but three. This other one had air bubbles I didn’t like, so it’s in the baby kiln for a flip and fire, along with some murrini nibs. I hope to use the nibs (otherwise ‘useless’) in an …
Both in the kitchen and the studio … I made a vat of bone broth. I couldn’t help it. When I was at the grocery store, I stumbled on a package of chicken feet … CHICKEN FEET! And then I thought, ‘Well, why not?!?’ DH was a bit concerned – and kept taking pictures! …
