An Emotional Day

It's almost my bed time but I thought I'd knock out this post.  What a crazy day.  I woke to find that David Bowie had died.  I was shocked.  I had spent Friday in the studio listening to KEXP's tribute to him.  He was turning 69 and released his new album, Blackstar.  Little did anyone know he had been battling cancer for 18 months and this album was to be his parting gift to his fans.  So today KEXP (my very favorite radio station in the world, that I stream everyday) played more Bowie and I found myself overwhelmed with emotion.  Standing at my wheel crying as I put handles on cups.  Crazy!!  I'm not a mega Bowie fan, but I think it was just knowing how incredibly full his life was that got to me.  He was a true artist, always growing, changing, evolving, giving.  Wow.  Anyhow, I was moved and inspired, sad and joyful. And it was just weird, I think so many people were impacted.  Maybe some energy was moving through the air, connecting us, or maybe it was just those songs.  

Ok. Pots!  Yes!  I tackled some plastic today and got pots finished.  

Those double love bird dishes will get fired before Valentine's Day and go up on the Etsy site.

I forgot to take images of my pitchers but I'll do that tomorrow.  And I made plans for the fat pots.  Ha.  God, they are still under plastic, out of sight.  But I know what I'm gonna do to each one so I'm not stressed.  I really just want to get all this finished up, make a few more boards of pots and fire.  I'm ready.

Ok.  That's it for this dude.  Catch ya later!
