Hot, hot heat.

We can't deny it any longer. Summer is here and it's in the 90's. This is the time of year when my instinct is to hybernate. I absolutely fade in the heat and from now until October I'll be hoping for Fall. Summer is also the time when I long for the comfort of a good book. This week I bought a copy of Bleak House by Charles Dickens. It's a huge book with tiny little font but I'm determined to get through it and love it. I also got Gilead by Marilynne Robinson.

Today is all about cutting clay and sewing bags. Truthfully, what I really want to do is sit myself down on the couch and watch a movie, but that would be a bad idea. Working for myself has it's perks but it also requires a lot of discipline. Getting inspired helps a lot and recently I've seen some cool things that have my creative juices flowing. I hope you'll like my newest creations.

Thursday (tomorrow) night is the big Grand Re-Opening of MAKE. Freelisa and JenniMac are the featured designers but my work will be for sale as well. Julie tells me that she'll be giving a 10% discount on all merchandise, so it's a great time to shop. In the Bishop Arts District every first Thursday will be a special night. The shops and restaurants will have specials and most likely food and drinks for shoppers. They'll also be staying open til 10pm.
