Oh my, SRS, Reminds me of when my flat in Montreal was broken into, circa 1971. Surely a drug addict - equipment left behind- and they did find a few things worth selling - my wedding band and engagement ring amongst others; I did not need them anymore but they were worth a few dollars. The worst was - my flat was well organized and very tidy, everything carefully stashed- but the everything had been pulled out of every drawer and closet so it was difficult to walk around. The police were unimpressed, "Why do you have so much stuff?" Even though foot prints went through the fresh snow into a building at the end of the block... Some family heirlooms and my "important papers" were left in boxes in the trash and employees at the businesses on the other side of the alley were kind enough to phone me so I could fetch them back!   --And as I stood looking at the mess, the cat-in-care vomited in my jewelry box!

Country:

This 2nd day of spring has turned right beautiful - crystal clear sky and sunshine, but already gone below freezing after a thawing two days. Smelling Spring in the air is a real joy!

Yesterday I did manage to wax pot bottoms in prep for glazing before dashing away. After the meeting, I succumbed to on line searches. Today, I did errands, drove by a house for sale, had a healthy lunch and convinced myself I would be happier if I got some work done in the studio.

I organized, added a couple more shelves and filled them, sorted and gathered glaze materials, mixed a large batch of yellow, and washed the complex glaze sieve in prep for next glaze making - midnight blue I think, and maybe a couple more tests toward a medium blue and a turquoise. Great sense of having DONE THINGS! And relegated two boxes of old copies of Ceramics Monthly to recycling - only because they had gotten wet and were useless. I had markers in most of them but could not turn the pages and - Oh well!

Now I shall dash away to the other cafe for music.
