Dec. 5th, 2023 12:41 amToday I am grateful for:
Finally getting my timing right to have a phone conversation with Mom. Often when I call, they are either serving a meal or she's napping, so I'm glad I was able to talk with her today.
Getting the dishes done.
I went to town for pottery.
A few of my pieces were finished, and I was happy with them over all.
One other person was there, and it was nice to visit with her.
I threw tonight, working on the parts of teapots, that will need to be "leather hard" before I can assemble them.
Clean up was a bigger deal than usual, it always is when I throw. I also had a lot of extra mess today, since I was trying to recondition some recycled clay.
I'm grateful that I was feeling good overall, and could meet the challenge of all that clean up.
Then it was a rush to get some groceries before the store closed. I think I got most of what we needed, but man, it was getting close to closing time.
I'm grateful to be able to get groceries, to have the strength/energy to do so, and a car, and so on.
There was an accident of some kind on the highway on the way home, and I had to detour around it. It was a big semi and trailer, at least what I could see.
Sprite has been eating not too badly, and keeping it down. A little less interested in her food than usual, but not bad (?). I have an appointment for her tomorrow, but I'm not entirely sure if she's actually sick, or what is going on now.
I finally got home, and was grateful for that. You see a big accident like that, and just shudder.
My Sweetie had some food waiting for me, and he helped put groceries away. Then he had to go straight to bed.
I learned that Kate Winslet held her breath for seven minutes and twelve seconds in order to film a scene for the second Avatar film.
