Flu-b-gone
April 3rd, 2013 09:38 pmIf that's not a real product, it should be because I would buy it! Yes, the flu is still lingering in me and doesn't seem to be ready to give up it's grip quite yet. While today found me not coughing quite as much, I hope you've bought stock in Scotties tissues because I am going through a lot of them. I think that I've paid my penance to the sick fairy and should be able to stay healthy for a good long while.
And I would like that 'while' to include Friday's mammogram and ultrasound. Seems that yesterday's mammogram has turned up a little something that they want to take a better look at on the right side (last year was the left).
Yesterday was a bit of a marathon day - after the 'pictures', I hit up the big GoodWill in F'burg in search of cutting boards for us to try to make extruder dies with. While I struck out in that department, I found a few pretty awesome deals including: 4 yards of broadcloth for 99 cents, some fake flowers to use in displaying my vases, a few odd tools for the studio, and a neat shawl that is faire-friendly. Another curious find, although it did not come home with was a small paint booth that was practically new for $35 (they cost about $100 new). Once I had gotten a burger at Five Guys (yummy), I went to Joanns and came away with a sexy 'port wine' colored cotton to create the trim for my tent cover, some cotton for bias tape trim on fan pouches, and an angle ruler to help me make the above-mentioned bias tape. The final stop was BJs for grocery-type stuffs. It was good to get out after being home sick for a week, but I overdid it and was feeling pretty puny by the evening.
Today found me in the studio for a bit and another two bread baskets have been created. I really need to spend some quality time on the wheel but didn't have the energy for that today.
Intuit is holding another Small Business Growing campaign - where entrants have the chance to win one of fifteen $5,000 grants. If you'd like to help me out, just visit the site each day and vote for me (Prancing Pony Pottery) from now through May 12th. It's that simple!
