I LOVE MY STUDIO!!! I told DH ‘I’ll see you on Saturday’ … and I was only half-joking! My plotter has arrived, she’s installed and after 5 days of confusion, electronic and software grief … she’s up and running. I LOVE IT!!! I have days upon days of learning to do/knowledge/experience to acquire – but …
is now set for next week (!) … Sooo – I was available to attend the DARN SANE meeting! By the time I got home, I was completely bummed and disliking people. Needing a fix – I spent the afternoon playing with puppies, in the sunshine and beautiful fall colors: And Mighty Zeus was …
Not having a fun week. Too busy. I didn’t get my chores done in time to go to a work outing tonight (- ER folks know how to have some fun too, darnit!). AND – I’m missing my studio! [Lower lip sticking out, feet stomping] But – my week is full of puppies, family time …
Oh My Lordy! People, particularly 20-somethings will never cease to AMAZE me … Their oral-diarrhea is outmatched only by the size of their egos, and this sense of ‘you owe me’/entitlement is baffling! With that said – I choose to move on from the drama, and play in my studio. I tried a new technique …
Here’s my glass clay experiment. Not sure what happened with the red hat, but Santa is solid … kinda neat. Might just need to play with clay again … Also played with ‘faux dichroic’ … not the instant success I strive for, but definitely worth playing with again … The babies (neo mastiff …
Crummy day! Started with a wake-up SANE call … yeah, my favorite. Spent way too many hours ‘debating’* with police agencies on behalf of my patient, ending several hours later with a temporary ‘truce’ – before I start again tomorrow … [*one never ARGUES with the police] And while I came home drained of any …
I was on a roll, feeling good(!) – UNTIL … But first, the good: I got through the weekend(!), while taking care of some difficult, NEEDY patients and families … (‘nuf said!) I was able to get to sleep early Monday morning, allowing for some quality evening time – family (two-legged), romp (four-legged), and the …
Had our weekly photo-shoot. Sienna’s boys are showing signs of being ready for more sustenance (weaning). Zonie’s babies have opened their eyes. We have folks calling and visiting regularly – which means the maid is working double duty, but hey … it’s all good. Look at all that squishy-love! Have squeezed out a few …
than to play in my studio when I’m annoyed and tired. But no … I’m waiting to see if the sun will come out (for a quick dip in the pool) before crashing – after a long, busy night at work – in order to go back for 12 more hours of fun tonight. So …
Have eked out some studio time … playing with a Tigger (from Winnie the Pooh – DH’s favorite) ornament. I plan to paint it, but set it on my recent blank (in oranges, reds and golds) and I kinda like the look … Whatcha think? (It’s black glass paint, that looks gray until fused …) …
