More good stuff … coming

I’ve been playing a bit in the studio, and doing a wee bit of shopping.  Someone has copper enameling equipment coming.  [Shhhh – don’t tell DH!]  And, a few new molds and glass from my favorite glass shop.  Maybe I have some stands from NC on the way.  Oh – and possibly a couple bails …

Interesting, frustrating, painful … you decide

So, I’ve had 3 kilns running for the last few days.  My experiments were … interesting and frustrating, but have potential … maybe.  I also have a few other ideas to try.     And, I have some sweet dichro (jewelry) pieces almost ready for listing:      My ‘Christmas run’ is promising.  And, I’m cooking the …

Slowing down …

Yeah, sure … Umm, kinda WWU:  The full moon did not disappoint this weekend.  It was flippin’ craziness everywhere  (And, I don’t mean [non-PC] behavioral medicine craziness.  I mean full-moon nuttiness all the way around!):  Arguments with law enforcement; bizarre complaints; insane volume in our ‘lil country club ER; combined with crazy computer issues.  But …

Ready, Set ~ Go … CRAZY

So, I’ve done it again.  DH and I have committed to doing an art show (or two).  Yep, on the weekend … when I’m working.  So, if you’re in the area on September 14 & 15, stop on by and see us at the Highland HeyDays Festival.  (Or – swing into the Opera House in …

This week in the studio …

So, my flower plate ERUPTED too … Dang it! But, I have a plan for this plate and the failed peacock piece … [drumroll] … spoon rests!!!    To go with the other spoon rests I’ll be cutting from these blanks and future bowls … My plate/platter slump run went well.  I like this ‘patch work’ …

Happy Anniversary Weekend …

As we roll into the anniversary of our special day, I am celebrating!  How, you ask?  Well, I started my day with not one, but two ‘DEEP core’ weight-loss donations (… and it hurt!).  Armed with nothing stronger than Motrin, we went to celebrate … at my local glass supplier – while DH went to …

Moving along …

I have three kilns running!  Yea BABY!!!  More platters, dichro cabs (with some requested Angels), and a few experiments.  Love it!                And, I’ll have a de-bubble run coming later this week.  Yep, moving along … Slept some 18 out of 28 hours(! – I know, right?!?) – so, I’m over the trauma …

Deep Thoughts …*

By  Jack Handey Nurse Ginger:  [AKA WWU.  Let me set the stage a bit first.]  (* DH says this post is hard to follow.  I maintain any nurse or care-provider can follow along …) I have triggers (things that a patient can say or do that instantly rub me the wrong way).  I recognize many of …

Happy Independence Week …

Yep, I stretched that day out to a whole week!  Family time, play time, and plenty of food!  All while giving thanks for those who [have] provide[d] for my independence … Not much to show from the studio (although, I am sporting a sunburn from time in the pool) … Here’s a picture of the …

Tips on proper E.R. etiquette … AKA WWU

Or … how NOT to gross-out or annoy your ER nurse: 1)  This does not (necessarily) need to be show-and-tell time:  Seriously, I will believe you if you tell me you have something unusual about your body fluids.  If you say there is blood in your vomit, you do not need to bring some in …
