T minus 4 …

And the shopping is done!  Sweet.  Plus – I received an early Christmas present … Don’t you LOVE her?  I do! DH says it’s a pretty fine line between Betty Boop Nurse and HER!    I say, “Choose carefully!” Spent just a bit of time in my studio this evening … My sister has requested …

T-6 … so what’d you do today?

Less than 6 days ‘til Christmas … Wow, it’s really coming extra fast this year. Of course, a houseful of squishy-faced-love adds to the fun and hectic level of activity. DH and I did a little Christmas shopping today, when I finally decided that my left axilla was officially bugging me.  To review:  I had …

Almost human … AKA ‘I got sick’– i.e. GINGER VIRUS

WWU: I got sick – at work.  For a minute there, I thought maybe DH was trying to take advantage of my food allergies (umm, poison me! – But ya know, my life insurance policy stinks, and I’m not quite THAT paranoid); so maybe it was … – actual food poisoning; – salad  overdose; –  …

Catching the Christmas spirit …

or is that SPIRITS???  (We’ll get to that…)  I’m happy.  I’m gathering up small projects/music to keep myself occupied while I work the art shop tomorrow.  Come join me from 12n-8p … I’ll have Pentatonix rockin’ on my MP3 player for some a cappella Christmas cheer (thanks L.T!!) Back to spirits … I’ve been putting all …

Countdown and three kilns …

Click, click, click … go my kilns (happy sigh – ) ALONG with the other 886 COUNTDOWNS  ticking away.  Deep breath! Review (since my last post): 1) We have babies!  Momma Iz finally got serious Friday night, and we have 7 new Neo babies in the house (DH has the photos,  and I’m so far …

Happy Thanksgiving!

I’d say Happy Turkey Day … but we had ham.  Was my youngest daughter a little bummed?  Maybe … But – since she didn’t move her lazy-butt off the couch all doggone day … I’m not impressed by her vote.  And, while I embrace our house-full-of-hormones with sarcasm, I am thankful for my family …  …

Some good, some bad … But – the 3rd time’s the charm!

The GOOD:  I’ve been producing in the studio; I have a few leads for ‘show-casing’ my ART;  I’ve been working on some glass special requests (… I absolutely love those!);  My family (both 2- and 4-legged) are healthy and well; I finally have a solid game plan to fix my ‘lil medical issue; I’ve lost …

Hey Ladies …

Come on out tonight and start your holiday shopping.  It’s “Ladies Night Out” at Muir Middle School in Milford.  I’ll be there, peddlin’ my wares from 6-9pm.  You can see, first hand how well I displayed 5 tubs worth of my glass work on one 8 foot table … or NOT! I’ll have lots of …

Before it begins …

Let me just take a moment to say ~ regardless of how shameless it is … I love how varied my Etsy shop listings are looking right now.  And – public awareness moment:  We have only 55 days until Christmas … Just sayin’!!! But – here’s where I’ll start to get nutty:  I have 2 …

Decals, dichroic extract, screen printing …

Oh my!  Busy week in the studio, as I work on and wrap up some projects and special requests.  Angels, dichroic badge reels, pendants, and a special ornament (… here come the pictures):        I still have more dichro cabs to run, and a few other projects I’m working on … such a good week!  …
