  1. So, guess who literally found almost $100.00 worth of underglaze at a thrift store in a bag marked $5.00? And then won a $1.00 discount off of it? YEP; THIS guinea pig!! ^_^

      It was way up in Newport. :) David and I were in the mood to travel, so we went up north through Newport, then Sandpoint, then to CDA, then home. :) We found such treasures!!

  2. Thinking about starting private lessons from inside my home. My health is crashing fast, and pottery is getting harder every day, but I have a lot of knowledge to share. :) I think I could take a couple students under my wing.

      I'm so sorry to hear about your health. It's hard to cope with a body that's not up to the strain but a mind that wants to push you to do more than you are up to.

      I wish I'd go into remission! :'( That would be a godsend! Stupid immune system, anyway... *grumble grumble*

  3. It's 1:00am, and I just finished glazing. Time for this tired creaky rodent to paaaass out!!

      I literally passed out with the phone still in my paw. Soooo sore today, haha... gotta babysit Fred now. :)

  4. A couple of yahoos were racing on the highway at 2:30am, crashed, and knocked out the power in three small towns. My Fred was firing when the power was cut, hnnngh... He got back online, though. :)

      My 7k generator natural gas keeps me working thru outages -that said its not enough to fire an electric kiln with my other loads

  5. I'm one tired guinea pig. Made seven yarn bowls and two medium-large food bowls, trimmed and pencil sketched. Gonna be kyoot! WIP pics to come. :) I sure miss my 30-piece a sitting days, though...

      Try not to hide how you really feel about wedging. Best to just let it out.

  9. I just learned from one of my longtime clients that a bun of hers I made a portrait of passed last night. It always hits deep, hearing that. Through my art, I feel like I know them in spirit. :'( I guess I'm weird...

      I know that Fred is insulated, but one of the windows is broken out, so it's 0F in the garage. It got down to -4F last night... Thankfully, this cold snap is abating. I'm just gonna wait!!

    4. Cavy Fire Studios

      Cavy Fire Studios

      Yep, I'm safe. I'm a big fat rodent with plenty of insulation and lots of layers!! ^_^

  14. Working on a super cute wide-rimmed shallow bowl for my fella as a late Xmas pressie. Gonna be adorable!! ^_^
