GEP reacted to Hulk in Lower back has been nagging, trying more rest; cycling, construction and maintenance
I'll second the recommendation of McKenzie's book
I've been a traction fan for over fifty years, that too!
Much better these last few days, thanks all...

Treat Your Own Back, by Robin McKensie.
This book did wonders for my lower back, by opening my eyes to what I was doing wrong. Changed some daily habits, and my back has never felt better. It’s an inexpensive book, and a quick read. Highly recommend it!

GEP got a reaction from LeeU in 2019 Smithsonian Craft Show, here I come!
@Gabby they always plan some talks and other special events, but I don’t think I will be part of those. I’ll just be in the exhibit hall with my pots.

GEP got a reaction from Roberta12 in The aggravating week continues. Now fedex has lost my shipment of custom-printed shop
UPDATE... THE SHOPPING BAGS HAVE BEEN FOUND! Fedex delivered them this afternoon. What a relief.

GEP got a reaction from terrim8 in The aggravating week continues. Now fedex has lost my shipment of custom-printed shop
I’m not quite willing to say “act together” yet for fedex. They had marked the shipment as delivered almost two weeks ago, but the boxes were still somewhere in their system until yesterday. Tried to ask “what’s the story” and so far nobody knows.

They are currently “investigating” whatever that means. If they can’t find the shipment, I will file a claim. The bags are worth $1k so I bet they will try not to pay it. So I’m stressed about the money. Meanwhile, I think I have enough blank bags to get through the show. It’s not what I planned for, but I can live with blank bags for one more show.

GEP got a reaction from Roberta12 in Ack! My kiln with brand new elements just misfired. Now I have to wait until it cools
Culprit found ... one bad relay. New one is ordered. All the glazes still look like powder, so I think a refire will be fine. Thanks for all the advice, everyone! Benzine I pledge to make better offerings, starting now!

GEP reacted to S. Dean in I am missing the moderators and key resource/info people who are (recently) not here
LeeU - I think if "mass migration" is a concern, then it is up to each of us to promote and maintain an active, vibrant and respectful community (as has, been our culture). People come and go for a variety of reasons, and yes there are losses to lament. However, it is the culture that holds thing together over time. There's an incredible amount of talent and knowledge on this forum today, and I'm thankful for the efforts of the existing and new moderators that help make this a community where that knowledge and ideas can be shared.

GEP got a reaction from Roberta12 in I am out of porcelain. I am out of clear glaze. I do not want to mix more right now.
This is my last day of work for 2017 too! One of my kilns needs new elements too, but it can wait for 2018. Time to put my feet up.

GEP reacted to Mark C. in Spent today packing online orders for shipping. Ow, my back.
I hope I'm done with that part yesterday.
Just when I think I'm done with packing another contact happens.
