A good holiday weekend...

It was.  I won't lie to you. :)

This long weekend started off with a great Thanksgiving dinner.  Then the Black Friday Market Day on Friday.  Then a two day Holiday Home Show.  Overall, crazy busy... but I'm pretty happy with the results of all the hard work.  I still have a lot of great pots for sale in the showroom.  I went into overdrive after Art on the Prairie.. I managed to throw, dry, fire, glaze, and fire again an entire big kiln load of pots.  There were some long nights, but I got some really great pots out of this firing, which was a relief after I was half-way sleepily glazed over when I was glazing mugs. ;)

So... on to the next event.  Well, the next event isn't pottery related, but still fun.  *Hopefully* the llamas will come to their new home on Thursday.  That's the plan, assuming the weather cooperates.  If it's blizzarding (oh no!) then we'll wait to move the 'herd'.  I think I can officially call three llamas and two sheepies a 'herd' now.  We've almost got their new home all set up and ready to go, and we'll finish that up on Tuesday.  I'm so excited!  I know, I'm acting like a little kid... but I've always loved animals and I'm just silly excited and I can't help it.  

So I probably won't sleep much this week, which I assumed would happen... That means if you swing by the studio for the second Holiday Home Sale next weekend and I look a little sleepy, it's because I was excited about my livestock.  I'll be open for business both Saturday and Sunday from 10-5, so stop by... pick up some nice pottery for gifts and say hello to Starr, Foo, Carlos, Thelma and Louise.  :)

Have a great night.  I'm going to *try* to get some sleep.
