Do not let
Them douse
Your heart full
Of stars with
Their handful
Of dust.

#3GoodThings #Pottery

1. My 42 ceramic buttons came out of the glaze kiln this morning. Several fellow potters marveled over them and started playing with them. They're VERY tactile. I'm so pleased with how they turned out. (photo attached)

2. My bowl, on the other hand, didn't turn out at all like I had expected. Maybe that's a good thing? (2 photos attached)

3. I'm tired of cooking, so my husband is out hunting for Greek carry out.

Look at this baby beaver and feel better briefly
I am 82 years old.
I have lived through the Cuban Missile Crisis, the JFK assassination, the Vietnam War, the Turmoil of 1968, Watergate, the Hostage Crisis, two oil crisis, disco, Reaganomics, 9/11.
The covid pandemic....
These past 11 months have been easily the most miserable era in America in my lifetime.
The hatred, the bigotry, the lies, the racketeering and pedophilia are beyond anything I have ever seen.
We are not going to hell as a nation.
We are IN hell.
