Yesterday wasn't as smooth as I planned.
Lots of add-on crap -- from volunteering stuff to dogs to kids to garden. Of course, I didn't sleep well. Woke up to go to the bathroom and that was all the sleep I got. I KNOW I'll have a good trip, but the lead up to travel is crap. I wish I could figure out a way to stop fussing.
Sleep is so tender for me right now and losing a good night the night before adds to the problem. More specifically, adds to my worry that I'm not getting sleep, then I'll get rundown, then I'll get sick .... then, then, then. So much fuss and the fuss IS the majority of the problem. Got to love the mind.
But, I'm going into this trip with a FS focus. Looking at today and asking "how can I live this now." The question works surprisingly well and directs my mind for good (not evil hah). Gives my mind something positive to focus on. If I can figure that out for the middle of the night -- huge win.
Anyway.
I picked up the pottery from the class two weeks ago. Class moved to the day before last trip and pickup moved to the day before this trip. Neither timing was ideal, but I'm glad I took the class. Learned some stuff, hung with a friend and have a cute little bowl to show for it. It's a berry bowl, but I'll probably use it for trinkets or decoration.
The base color is a mix of bright yellow and cream. I had no idea how bright it would end up, but this is the shade I wanted -- soft yellow. It's rimmed in white sparkle but you couldn't see the difference in the glazes when painting -- especially with the low outdoor lights so I had no idea if it would look rimmed. But it works. Happily homespun looking. The blue dots are blueberries :)
That's all I have time to chat about this morning. Another super early flight with the add-on of picking up kids. See you Monday for a recap of the trip. Have a good weekend. Later gators.
