Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarn! Sneak peek for all you pink lovers; Pretty in Pink will be coming back in January, if not sooner. I wouldn’t bet on sooner, just because it’s about a three-week turnaround from when I start to do something to when it starts to show up (but you probably already knew that). Also? About half [...]
In no particular order, here are some of the many things I am thankful for. My family of origin, both here and not here any more, for all the things they taught me both overtly and unconsciously. I am who I am because of you. My family of choice, for the patient and hardworking do-right man [...]
The rest of my 2011 daily photos can be viewed here… even when I forget to pick a favorite on Friday.
Long post ahead! Grab a drink! One thing that I DO NOT MISS about having a Real Job is yearly evaluations/performance reviews. Ugh. (OK, technically those are two things, and I should have used “are” rather than “is.”) Doing everything myself means – at least to me – that on some level I am constantly [...]
OK, so you’ve probably read about Tuesday and Wednesday. Let me tell you about yesterday, Thursday! Yesterday started off fine. I had the kiln going by 7:30 AM, and it’s a bisque fire which meant 9 hours — perfect timing for getting me out of the house to meet my friends for Third Thursday Spinners [...]
I had a whole post planned about how I wasn’t going to write a traditional 9/11 post like everyone and their brother seems to be doing (mostly because look… I saw it once, I don’t want to see photos of it again), but I veered off into all sorts of things and eventually wasn’t even [...]
August started off good (if early) with meeting my friends at Wild Iris Books for the launch of their new online book service. Of course no breakfast that early in the morning is complete without champagne! Damn… looking at that photo makes me want champagne. Er, orange juice. That’s what I meant to say. Ahem. [...]
Rabbit hurries on and arrives at Christopher Robin’s house. He knocks on the door and then calls out, but there is no answer. Christopher Robin is Out, and just as Rabbit is about to leave he spots a piece of paper on the ground, with a pin in it, as if it has fallen from [...]
And if you don’t get that, you need to go watch this. I hesitate to write, sometimes, that I have frustrating days. After all – or so I’ve been told by someone – all I do is “sit around and craft all day, so how hard can THAT be?” And a few times over on [...]

Recently, I was in a situation where (and I hope/know a few of you will be shocked on my behalf) someone insulted my soap. It’s kind of a convoluted story*, and I’d like to be rather vague about the circumstances, but it resulted in an email back-and-forth between a friend and I wherein she asked [...]
