Such a busy weekend. We just had bamboo floors installed in the living room and dining room, after ripping out all the carpet ourselves. White carpet in a dining room. Who does that? Along with this is the obligatory moving around of furniture, and getting rid of things we don’t use, or giving them a [...]
It’s raining tonight. It’s a nice, cozy rain. We went to a birthday party earlier for one of Derek’s friends and it was a good time, good food and friends. There was a point were most of the kids were running in crazy circles around the house, faster and faster and louder, and eventually, two [...]
One of those pieces I will have real trouble putting up for sale next weekend. One of a kind, not sure I can do it again so nicely in terms of the glass texture. Needs a touch more finishing on the bail. Lime Swirl Pendant
Need to make an online journal entry of substance. I need to make the time to do it. How did my days get so busy, so full, so hectic? Web stuff, straw stuff, preschool stuff, little boy stuff, house stuff, preschool auction stuff, health stuff, DLJ stuff. Well, I must get back to the STUFF. [...]
I’m in my studio with a student, supervising her open torch time. I made this one yesterday, quickly, to test a theory. The swirls are not a glass that is called Aurora, made by Bullseye. I sort of accidentally made my own Aurora, using Bullseye glass. It has a lot more color, I think than [...]

-Simon LeBon really kinda goes overboard when he decides to have a Twitter session, makes me page just a blur of blue eyes. -Lots of WordPress messing around right now. Come the New Year it will be time to get back into Joomla, methinks, for other projects. I still kinda like Drupal *wistful* -Derek and [...]
I’m about to skip town to France. Or Zimbabwe. Anywhere. The last few days have been hard. I know, first-world hard, but hard. Derek is recovering, but out of 6 times getting physically ill, only one was in the toilet. Draw your own conclusions from that one on what I have been doing lately. Our [...]
New focal. Maybe I will just sell it as is…..no finished piece. Currents
It’s another rainy Sunday here in Oregon. But we will probably put up the holiday lights anyway. Last night we went out to dinner at New Seasons, a local schmancy grocery store, and Derek saw his first holiday lights of the year. He was VERY excited, and kept saying “Who else in this neighborhood has [...]
