A Day At The Studio

I got to the studio downtown early yesterday with my truck full of pieces to glaze. Got everything all set up and away I went. I thought I would be finished at the studio sometime around noonish and did not get out of there till 5:30. I had all my pieces unloaded and in the glaze room and was literally in there talking out loud to myself, something like this… that one has the black/red combo, I think that one should have the pumpkin/celadon combo. I think I should do that one in turquoise to match the work on the outside, and on and on I went, with a whole lot of thinking in between. Am I the only one who talks out loud to themselves?

I must say we all had such a great time of it out there. There were around 8 of us total working chatting and just having a great day together. I took Monika several pottery books to borrow and a couple new tools to try out. She has come a long way in just a few months of (pottery) playing dirty with the rest of us. Quite a few of my friends were doing raku out in the back and several were throwing pots and a couple of us were glazing. We all stopped and enjoyed our lunch around the table and had a great time of more conversation. The Wednesday group is so much fun and the time goes by so fast that all I think I had to do was blink and it was 5:30.

I had to make a quick stop by Costco on my way home to pick up some chicken and did not get home till 6:30 Hubby pulled in right behind me and we sat down for dinner together and enjoyed each other’s company for the rest of the evening. I love days like that but I sure could not do it every day.
