Ouch and Doh!
So, I managed to start the week off with an OUCHER!!! While some may think stitches were indicated, THIS nurse knows better! I still got my mega-load of spoon rests in the coffin kiln. And, more rainbow night lights in the works … No stopping me in the kitchen, either. Shrimp stir-fry is a …
It’s not all tax prep …
While DH and I are pushing to meet the deadline, sifting through papers and tallying columns … we’ve done a few other things too. I made a cute owl/crackle plate. So now I have a poppy version in the works … And we have pups … adorable squishy-faced love. Xena loves her babies … Victor …
But HE Started It!
OH!!! It is SOO DH’s fault … He sent a de-funk Craig’s List item that promised a new storage rack/work station in my COE-90 designated work area. HE emailed the no-good listing to me. Now I WANT one! Shelves for my frits, upright storage for my glass, a place to tuck much-needed tools, AND a …
Chuggin’ along …
While I feel like I’m barely moving, I am producing. I’ve been taking pictures and working on listings (not my favorite) in between playing in the studio. Here are some photos from today: And, while we wait to hear about this winter’s show schedule (I’ll let you know where we’ll be …), I’m …
The beat goes on …
After sleeping for some 13 hours, I woke to our first summer day! (I am absolutely NOT complaining about the temperature!!!)

It’s crunch time …
The next 8 days are gonna be so crazy/busy … good thing I love stress! I have adorable kids to get me through! The babies will start moving on to their new homes starting next week … but, we are keeping one. Since the twins are learning Spanish (so I am too – a little) …
WWU – I work with some Nutty Nurses …
Of course, that means the night is NEVER dull, but … Wow! Meet Buddy, our ‘team mascot’ for the last shift of my weekend. Some nurses consider ANYTHING a patient gives them as a precious gift to be treasured … even PARASITIC BUGS! [An engorged tick for all you folks not up on your entomology] … Ugggghhhh! …
But Maaa – I don’t wanna ….
I’m on such a productive roll in the studio – I don’t wanna go back to work, darn it! [Arms crossed with pouty face!] I have pictures: Finally got some badge reel photos taking in prep for listing in the shops: I have the coffin loaded (and RUNNING!) for new bowls (slumping): I …
Finally …
Finally have the kiln running on a regular basis … oh how I love this! In between quick projects, I am working on more complex pieces. And – I have a Valentine’s Day idea or two I’d better get working on… Meanwhile – I am still researching all things embossing … Need to get DH …
