Pendant-Making-Friday …

Well, because I can!  I’ve been fiddling with these all week.  While making more components and parts …   DH seems to think I should make some type of ‘ocean scene’ … Hmmm But, I’m being nice as the poor guy turns the big 5-0 on Sunday!  Good golly someone is getting old!  The twins …

Good news, bad news, good news …

So, yea – you get the gist.   Good news – my elbow is cleared for PT; Bad news –  I’m not a huge fan of PT.  It’s like paying for an exercise club – but instead dues are 3x the cost, due every visit.  No, you don’t get a massage included – instead, we’re …

While I wait for the verdict …

Tomorrow is my ortho appointment … Time to see if a 20 pound full-arm cast or surgery is my penalty for ‘refusing to heal’ … Personally, I’m hoping for curtain number 3 … ??? In the meantime – I’ve made a few new glass pieces:  Future pendants (above), a couple of tiles ready for the …

A bit of a set back- but moving forward …

So, I had my repeat xray last week.  Apparently, my fracture isn’t healing … Well that sucks!  I’ll see Ortho on Tuesday to figure out the next step … In the meantime – I’ve made a few spoon rests … Played (gently!) with the CowBell … Put together some component parts for a couple of …

Arrgghh–the Broken Wing strikes again!

Cooped-up, grateful, somber and reflective (… as we roll into the New Year with it’s mandatory RESOLUTIONS) = TOO MUCH TIME ON MY HANDS! I just watched an interesting piece on millennials.  As the parents of four such off-spring, my husband and I have often discussed, argued and compromised on the best approach to raise …

Broken-Wing Christmas 2016 …

AND … that’s a wrap ~ with no packages actually wrapped!  It will officially be known as the ‘2016 Gift Bag Christmas!’ … But SHE’s done, and officially underway … Santa has visited with all ‘HIS’ magical Christmas BAGS; the fridge is loaded with pre-prep food; I have this recipe all set to go into …

Broken wing = moving slow

But, enjoying the moments!  From a studio standpoint, I can only push my right arm so far … So, it’s pre-cut busy work for me.  [And a promise to clean my studio … um, tomorrow!]  My sweet sister sent me this beautiful get-well bouquet of roses – so yes, I will clean my studio! I’m …

Thank You!

Thanks to Bogie Lake Greenhouse, HVCA, our shoppers and my family for a great show this weekend!  We had a wonderful turnout, and true to ‘Arts N Greens’ tradition – some crazy Michigan weather just for the occasion! Our 2016 Clayton Hill Studio display: Now, I will crash hard(!), get my house and studio back …

T-32 hours …

And, it looks like most of this one is on me … ‘SssAllGoooood!  Wow.  I’m not whining – or stressing, but could we have just 2 or 3 more plates to keep spinning in the air right now?  Combine college twins [who one might hope could be self-sufficient … SILLY GIRL!], with an overloaded DH, …

So much going on …

I knew this would be a crazy couple of weeks – what with turning 29 again!  [… Oh, yeah – and the presidential election …]  Since I can only control what happens in MY REALM, I can safely report we’ve been busy; Life and glass go on … I continue my battle with time, power surges …
