Well, at least one of us is productive! I still have to email you. I'm really not just trying to keep you looking at your emails - honest. I did get to the doctor today, and I have an appt. with a podiatrist to see about my foot and ankle neuropathy and why in the last month my high arches fell leaving me almost flat footed. She also referred me for physical therapy to try to get some strength back in my legs. (I can't carry three men and a boy around to get me off too-low chairs or lord forbid, the ground, should I fall.)

I love pit firing! You could also build a kiln from a metal trash can. If you'd go small, you could fire in a microwave kiln, too. Can't wait to see what you do with your dirt!

Will any of your new books be in your Etsy shop? Any with blank pages? I sketch and write in mine!

About bowls: because of my love for a good bowls and our space issues, I have been put on a Bowl Limit, and there is a Bowl Rule in effect here.

The Bowl Rule: If a bowl comes in, a bowl must go out.

I got around it a few years ago with a set of stemmed dessert glassware, that I declared were NOT bowls, but stemmed dessert glassware that my mama gave me and that I remembered from my childhood and then feeding my family dessert from the stemmed dessert glassware for weeks. They are really good for parceling out jelllo and pudding into individual servings.

But yeah. Love of hand made bowls is a thing I know.

The books are looking fanfreakintabulous!! Yay for the Hyperfocus! Me? I’m still grimacing in pain every time I breathe or my lips touch my broken teeth, but only 10 more days until I see the endodontist for a review. And after that it’s lawyer meetings to sort out my broken relationship so yeaaaaah… life’s just going along swimmingly. Hyperfocus on anything else is fabulous right now, I’m especially enjoying getting lost in books that’s I’m meant to be packing!
