So I managed to weather the Christmas season, the Post Christmas season and the snow/rain/freezing rain/ ice season continues – but I had somehow forgotten about the flu season. Consequently, when I wasn’t looking, one of those free floating bugs latched on to me and took a big bite out of my energy! I can’t believe how debilitating it can be! After one week of sleeping full time, another of sleeping/working full-time, I still have no managed to move to the working full time level. For some reason, when I stand, the earth spins much like my pottery wheel and I have a hard time holding on. Ah well – such is the wonderful life of the aging (not that I am, of course).
I have been able to make some mugs since Christmas. We are always in need of these – and not so paradoxically – always out of them. Then there is a healthy list of special orders to be tackled – so there is no rest for the wicked. I’ve also been working on some new jewelry ideas – black glazed beads with inlaid silver on silver chains. They would go so well with the ‘little black dress’ as many other things. I really enjoy the challenge of working with small things.
So I shall soldier on and continue to rest, eat healthy and laugh often. Of course I am a firm believer that a balanced diet consists of eating chocolate from both hands! Spring is coming and the summer solstice is not far off. How great is that?!
