  1. laying out a map of new home to figure out what must be left behind. Also what I don't need in my studio like my old ball mill.

      A blueprint of your shop really helps. I drew one up with all of my tables, wheel and slabroller in it when we built the house and shop. It's been 9 years and everything is still in the same spot.

      I'm planning to make a scale model of my studio, which I'm finally setting up, with scale furniture so I can arrange it properly.

      No they weren't going after potters. This was an attack on core internet infrastructure which put hundreds of sites out of action.

      I never feel in control until the room is filled with boxes and the only clothes I have to change into are in the laundry basket.

      The joy of moving, realizing how much junk you have. Each time I moved, I swore that I would avoid accumulating all the extra bits and bobs again...

      last trip was to 50th HS reunion, family reunion, last sorting of my deceased mother's things including 5 huge boxes of photos , mostly from her family from W.Va. taken from the mid-1800s to 1930s. Included some tin types.I hope to use the images in some art or image transfers. They are beautiful photos.

       

  19. Wow. Unpacking my treasures from my co-artists of the past 2 weeks. Great experience and intense friendships formed with complete strangers by our creative interaction.
