Trying my patience while "waiting"

Sometimes its just too hard. Yesterday I started this post and my phone was acting up and "forceclosed" on me so many times I gave up. Today, things are better. I realized there are so many people around me who care. So many people who want to do life with me. In the morning a friend came and hooked up my kitchen faucet so it wouldn't leak anymore. Later I got an email from a friend checking on me. Then, I got a text asking if someone could bring dinner over on Thursday night. DUH! Awesome! Then found out there was someone making a calendar online for others from church to do the same. (Bring dinner that is.) Then, I went and picked up my disability paperwork. BAM! Yep, hit an emotional brick wall.....made it through that.

BUT today is different. I have to stay focused on stress free activities that don't require bending or crunching my waist. I think that might be a nap, and it will also be messing with my tiles I created yesterday. I have no idea what I am doing with them. I don't even know if they will survive. It's more of a glazing experiment. I wonder if it gets hot enough in the kiln to melt these colors of glass. We shall see. If I just put one a day on here I will be back to work by the time I am done.

YEP---I took a hammer to all of these vases. Nothing personal but it sure felt good. I love the sound of breaking glass. I can't wait to see what happens. I discovered the red and orange one were just colored film over clear glass so it may not do what I want it to do. We shall see.



I have no idea what I am doing with these. Some of those flowers were taken from arrangements given to me in the hospital. They are cool looking. I think one of them was actually an herb. There was a sweet smell as I pressed them into the clay. Did I mention I have no idea what I'm doing. Oh yea, "waiting".
