This is our living room... Dan in the reading chair with his feet on the footstool, a fire going, light streaming in.
My sketches below getting ready to teach an ocarina class!

Dan gets me out on walks sometimes... the only way I seem to go nowadays. We went and saw this old house around the block from where we live, and it has a barn in the backyard that would make a great pottery studio. Dreams!

I was asked to make six steins for this brewery in town, and they are all made... waiting to dry so I can fire and glaze them. This semester has not gotten off to a good start.

Getting back into clay is a good thing to do. School started back today and I need to find joy in my work, and also joy in making with clay.

I am getting off another medicine, T. It too acts on my GABA receptors, and I'm not having a good time getting off it. I hope to get a reward when my brain has healed from all these years of taking benzos.

This is the lady whose granddaughter found Grayson. She came over today to see him for the first time since rescuing him. He didn't want to sit in her lap!

We drove Jes and Jef to the airport today. First we dropped Jef off in the rain, and then we went with Jes to tour the birthplace of MLK Jr and the church he preached at. It was cold and very very rainy. We had lunch in a German brew pub that only served beers from Georgia.

I felt great today. Jes and Jef were here and I baked cinnamon buns this morning, and made pretzels in the afternoon.
We went for a walk and tried to rescue a cat trapped in a crawlspace.
I felt great. So happy. So energetic. So full of life.

Aza and her beau left today. I was so sad, that I cleaned the house and found the last two pieces to this puzzle under the buffet. The house was so quiet. Dan came back and we went out to dinner at Hamilton's then came home and watched two episodes of Outlander.

It's so warm, daffodils are blooming all over town.
I played Azul tonight with Aza and Dan and SupBra. I lost.

It was raining, but we trekked down to the falls at the park today anyway, for our annual photo. This year SupBra was included formally!

My mom. She had us over for Christmas day dinner today after we had breakfast (stuffed French toast, fresh squeezed orange juice, melon balls, bacon) and opened presents (Apple watch, calligraphy set, blouse, yarn, InstaPot, gold luster). Dinner was prime rib, baked mashed potatoes, veggies, rolls, and two pies...

Christmas eve, 2019, I have a pecan pie made for dinner. Mom and Gwennie came over and we had turkey shepherds' pie. I felt outgoing!

They are all home!!
Squirt and Aza on the couch...
dan with a cat...
I'm so happy to have them all together.
And I had a surprise for them- after 17 years, I stopped taking a medication that had been a problem.
Today is Day 3 of a new chapter in my life.

Dan and I went on a walk with Jes today by the art museum (where this sculpture is) and across the street behind the med school.

Dan went to the airport to get Jes tonight and I stayed up late to visit with her. I'm SO glad to have my first child home for Christmas. She is staying for TWO WEEKS!!!
These are some things I got from my kiln today!

This is the view of the lake from the cabin. Below is the cabin interior.
OK, this is not the cabin, but an old building in western Alabama.

To celebrate the end of the semester, Dan and I went on a little adventure and rented a cabin on a small lake for a few days. We had a nice time getting there, exploring a park and a bird watching perch, and a few towns. This is the cabin ^ and that is the view from the perch \/

Today was graduation, and it was my turn to represent the department. I knitted in my chair... it was pretty boring, but I got to see three of my students walk across the stage!
