Well, once again I have been trying to create a coherent post on a particular subject but just can't seem to get the time or thoughts together. We are trying to get the garden at least started and I'm also trying to really build up my pottery stock and it just seems like there is not enough time in the day for everything. One day the weather looks like this and the next it will be sunny and warm. Stormy days we work inside and on pretty days I try to take advantage of that and do some outside stuff.
I have managed to get all the fruit bushes/plants, vines etc. fertilized but haven't got them all remulched at this point. Started some lettuce also and noticed that it has sprouted well. We really need to get the potatoes in and some cabbage and such. It has rained so much though that it's hard to work in the garden a lot of days.
So, I've also got this going on and this is just a small portion. Lots more dinnerware made. I think this past load came out really well and I'll show ya'll a photo of it all finished. I'm pretty sure I'm going to apply to a local show here next month. I should get accepted and if I do I've really got to get my butt in gear because it is a 3 day show and I'll need lots of inventory.
The cherry tree is blooming well this year so I really hope I get a halfway decent harvest this year. And I really need to get another one of these also. That would help greatly; just haven't done it yet. We also need one more plum and another apple too.
I've been in my studio a lot lately and I always keep the door open so I can keep an eye on the girls out in the yard and all. When the downpours come many of them run inside to keep dry. I don't mind. They do poop a little but it's a concrete floor; easy to clean. Low flying hawks will also prompt them to run inside!

Hey Sis! thanks! yes, I used to use a gauge to make sure all my mugs were coming out the same size but after 24 years you kinda get where you don't need it! lol!
Hey Ed! thanks!
Hey Tammy! thanks! the girls are smarter than most give them credit, for sure.
So far so good on feeling better. I really think regular exercise helps.
That *is* a good photo! Nice to have an artiste at the family gathering :-)
Those are some nasty looking clouds. All the rest of the pictures look really good and the place is taking shape even if you think it isn't happening fast enough. Pottery coming along too. Absolutely love the picture of you and Jack.
