Well, it's 20 days until spring. It's good as I NEED to get out of the house. Dad is getting on my nerves with things. He's not doing anything new or really bead. I am just loosing my patience. I need to get out and have other conversations.

Last night I couldn't settle. I ended trying an adult beverage. I did eventually get tired, but didn't sleep long. I did have a really vivid dream. I was in Italy with people I didn't know. It was at the sea shore. I saw beautiful fish as I walked the tide line Small and jewel colored. Nothing that would swim in the Mediterranean. The people I was with didn't want to stay... but I did. It was warm and sunny. I knew after the walk I would have good food. I don't speak any Italian, but I know I can get through a menu. I was upset when I woke up. I am tired go this COVID life and trying to do everything at the house and kind of failing.

I have a lot of work, but it is all crap. It is discouraging. It is almost a year since I had to work from home. It's been a long long time.

I watched a youtube video for a virtual ceramic/pottery convention. Makes me miss the old days at the ceramic studio. Back when we we were experimenting with new things and everything was bright. My friend's studio is not like that. No excitement. No experimenting. Everyone does the same old thing. Once I make it through the no pay period I think I will buy some stoneware serving bowls and place with some mid rage glazes... these glazes are what makes pottery very unique.

I found some little rustic bells that I like. They will be for my driftwood and seashell mobile/wind chime.

Friday I go to get Dad's taxes done. He always owes. Sigh. I go back Saturday morning for mine. I hate paying to have taxes done, but I don't know about deductions so I have to go some place. It will be good to get this done.

I am not surprised this year has worn on you, not enough social occasions and ways to make art. Fingers crossed we're on the list soon for vaccinations

at least when I was unemployed for 3 year I had my Mother to talk to..and could get to the sea.

I hate paying a tax guy, but man it is worth the peace of mind.

Your driftwood and seashells mobile sounds like a lovely idea. I'm in awe of your artistic talents :)

I do hope we get to see your mobile! Maybe make a handful of them and hang them in your garden?
