I got a handful of mosquito bites, the sky is still light when I go to bed, and I’m already getting cranks from the heat. It is full fledge summertime. Are you ready for it? Me, not so much because well, I turn into an asshole when I get hot and guess what? It’s already too hot out. And we are expecting a heat wave this week so watch out.
The week started off with a mad dash through apartments for turn overs and ended with a mad dash of finishing up apartment turn overs. The mr has been putting in 14 hour days every day so the only time we see each other is when I am with him painting or cleaning and for the few minutes we eat dinner together before he leaves the house to go back to work. But it is mostly over now so he can go back to his less crazy work schedule and maybe come home before 11pm!
So yeah, the week wasn’t all that eventful. I was still feeling like a pile of crap early on (from the vaccine) so I was slow going. I painted wall and scrubbed floors. I fed Megans cat and fed Barb all the food. I did get to see and hang out with my oldest friend for the first time in years, (we are getting so old!) and I managed to get a few things done in the studio. I mixed up a few more test glazes, trimmed and stuck handles on pots, and stated the reclaim process of about 100 lbs of clay. I was suppose to go pick up like 400 lb this week but we have just been too busy and the clay store is almost 2 hours away so I didn’t make it in. Hopefully Ill get there next week. I need clay.
Today is another work day. The mr is finishing up apartment turn over stuff so he will be gone all day and I have a house to clean, a studio to clean, and a butt load of reclaim clay to deal with. Not exactly a hike in the woods (which we would much rather be doing) but hopefully starting in the next few weeks we will be back on the Sunday camping circuit and all will be right again!
