Nothing to do but plow through …
Lots going on … I turned 29 (again! … A few more of these birthdays, and I’ll be able to skip straight to social security); we had puppies(!!!); got through a weekend (work) tour with a particularly tough case; and we continue to prepare for our next show … Oh, I slept for 17 hours …
Baby, it’s cold outside!
But we’ll get to that in a minute … First, you have got to see this cuteness! Rolls upon rolls of ADORABLE! I’m grateful I’m surrounded by puppy breath. Otherwise, this week might stink! We had a pipe burst in the wall of our family room today. I am really glad we were home, heard …
I’m back …
The to-do list has shrunken to an acceptable level … this means my kilns have been running! YAY!! I have a large blank cooling in the production kiln and bottles slumping in the coffin, as I type. Oh, I like this MUCH better! The new color combinations and finished-product ideas are flowing (haha) like crazy …
When the to-do list is no fun … play with puppies!
So, my should-do list is growing out of control … taxes, competency tests, appointments, meetings, house work … YUCK! No studio time … but I do have puppy time!

News from the Den …
I have such great friends! In the last week, I’ve been given a ton of bottles! Now to spend my dog-sitting-duty time soaking labels and scrubbing bottles, in between switching pups and feeding Liv … I think I’ll try quenching glass this week. Olivia is getting her appetite back. I like this much better! Her crew …
Studio News …
I’ve gotten a few pendants and badge reels pulled together … just quick projects. And I continue to re-photo some ‘older’ pieces – as I realize now just how horrible the lighting was in some of my initial listings … It keeps me busy and close to Olivia – who is going …
Technology … Day 2
So … here’s what you can do when you are on pup-duty all day, have your smart phone, a lap top … and 12 sweet puppies … I love puppies …
Weekend update … puppies
Outside of the standard flu & psych patients … Superbowl weekend proved to be a fairly mellow one. A great crew of co-workers is always a bonus! My only gripe is this: There should be a national law that prohibits drug-seeking, drama-craving, possom-playing dingbats from presenting to the ER at 6:53am. There is no compassion …
If Martha Stuart and June Cleaver had a third sister …
She MIGHT just look like me … We had Christmas with my Dad yesterday … Whew! We pulled it off (… I think …) – and my Martha Stuart/June Cleaver façade is safe – for a while yet any way … It was close though: Mother Nature’s little hissy fit (can’t even really call it …
