Ron & I went to Red Rocks last Friday to see Widespread Panic in concert again – Fun Show!

Not much happened in the studio this past week – though I do have an excuse.  And no, my dog didn’t eat my car keys preventing me from driving to the CPG or anything…. The real reason? My in-laws were in town and we spent the week catching up, consuming great food & drink and even managed to remodel my daughter’s bedroom complete with new paint job including teenager like accessories. I have to say it looks good if you like gatorade green (you know that sort of effervescent glow in the dark green that looks like it could etch metal?)! What can I say, she picked the colors this time around and she’s infatuated with neon at the moment. To be honest, I rather like the color now that it’s on the wall and think I may use this color in my home somewhere in the future.

I have a huge to-do list that I would like to accomplish before school starts again for me at the end of August. I wish time stood still like it did when I was a kid – endless summer…but alas, time seems to spend faster and faster these days. On my to-do list you ask? (in no particular order)

• Update the Colorado Potters Guild website with new photos from the spring show.
• Putz around with all the new software I learned in the past year including Illustrator, AutoCad, GIS etc so that I’m way more efficient next year.
• Work in the clay studio more.
• Landscape our garden.
• Run more.
• Clean up my website.
• Start a website for my landscape architecture portfolio.
• Read more.
• Start packing so that we can move next summer…. Say what?

Yep, my husband and I moved into our current house (which we had been renting out for the past 10 years) last summer with the goal of selling or staying.  We’ve decided to sell because we miss our old hood and all the amenities and I hate taking the #15 bus to school (yes, I take public transportation ‘cuz it’s eco-friendly and a hassle to park downtown, not to mention expensive – more on the adventure filled #15 another day). Will it be a huge pain in the ass?  YES!  I admit to you here and now – I have been bribed.

Have I told you how much I miss my studio?
