Have passed through another year of life … DH likes to say I’m catching up to him. ‘Course I point out he’ll always be OLDER! So far, it’s been [another] busy, productive week: Made candles; went to Metro; spent time catching up/celebrating with my family (phone, visit, phone, phone!); did a little home canine nursing …
Been a busy week here at Clayton Hill! But a great week, too! * I’ve been busy in the studio – in stolen ‘patches’ of time – which may make me more productive (???). I have new dichroic cabs (that will become pendants, badge reels and now … PINS!), as well as some other dichroic jewelry …
So … what’d you do today? I spent this beautiful Indian Summer day playing in the studio with the windows and door wall open … HEAVEN! I also cleaned – a little (umm – not much). Spent a bit of time taking pictures and ‘doing computer work’ … but when that got boring, I played …
Had a great time at the wedding. Gorgeous folks, lots of friends, good times! (and us …) My ongoing subpoena saga – the case has been delayed again! Woohoo! New summons will be issued … which means the county boys get to track me down again! But, it also means I don’t have to be …
What a week! But, I don’t have to work tomorrow (friend’s wedding) – AND I was able to carve out some studio time (it’s what insomniacs do) … so, a good week! [Throw in an unexpected visit to my grandparents, two ‘fast food’ meals – YUM!!!, and home made Nacho’s – loaded, of course!] I’m …
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 …
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 …
‘Round and ‘round we go … [Warning – philosophical, WORDY post!] I hate it when I get mad at work. Aarrrggh, WHY?!? Anger is (almost) always a wasted emotion. But, when a mid-level practitioner [one I feel I’ve helped raise and mold over the years] decided to stand on his soap-box and lecture ME about being …
