      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.

  6. Starting to pack for 6 weeks on the road. leaving Sunday. my brain is frazzled between what I already shipped and what I need to carry with me in five weeks from now.

  7. Starting to work with Armadillo porcelain. Feels gooey like B-mix but throws nicely.

  8. still cleaning off the wood fired pieces from pre-NCECA conference. Got a totally black piece in wood and a light white with a touch of tan in the wood-soda kiln. similar small sculptures. Interesting.

  10. still in Montana where my new work is really selling well. it makes me happy because it is hard to sell in in Texas. I have a strong reputation in Montana even after being gone for Six years.

      To paraphrase an old Joni Mitchell song, "they don't know what they've got 'till its gone"...soak in some of that Big Sky while you are in the neighborhood :)

  23. Teaching is a great service job and can be very rewarding. Glitches can be working conditions, administration, etc.

    But there are great rewards.

  24. Thanks for contributing. Haben't seen you here very often. I am starting to teach this semester at UT Brownsville. I would love to get rid of the 6 types of clay and a zillion glazes in the shop...but that will take time.

  25. Thanks for the posting photo review. I brightened mine up.
