Confessions of a Potter


1) My holidays were not stress free.
2) It's been very cold and I have let the studio grow quiet.
3) Living with a teenager is not easy.
4) Sometimes I'm lazy, other times I just want to cook lots of food.
5) I get jazzed when a stranger calls up out of the blue and wants to stop by the studio.
6) I'm often surprised at which pots people want to buy.
7) It is my habit to overthink everything, which can lead to limbo land.
8) In an attempt to be more spontaneous, I am getting on a jet plane Thursday and going to San Francisco, where I will be staying
with super stars of the pottery world.
9) I hope to have lots to say in the near future.
10) My garden is calling me and small starts of basil grow in my windowsill.



Yesterday two lovely ladies came by for some tea and to purchase a present for their friend. They left the studio with several pots and have promised to be back soon. Today, I have been hard at work and feel happier.
