Off the Porch and Growling

So here is a very important tip. Never - never try to throw pots without having had your daily coffee.

Normally my time in the studio is Zen, just pure zen. Therapy so I don't go mental -er more mental than I already am.

Today unfortunately was not one of those days.
I was a bit befoozled (yes, it's a word) by the St. Patricks day parade through Old Town, which muddled up the energy a bit and then the studio was completely emty except for me and Jane, oh and the assorted odd customer or two, so that mucked up the energy a mite too - I'm used to a number of folks being there, the die hards as it were.
I trimmed, and glazed today. Put six pots in for glaze firing, and trimmed another four, as well as a lid for one of the honey pots. I also destroyed a lid. Unitentionally I had trimmed it round and went to set it dwn and I put my finger through it - which tells me two things, one, it was too thing and two, it wasn;t meant to be. So I threw another one.
