I won’t work on any sculpture until April.

I haven’t had my hands in clay for months now. Two months ago I took a mostly full-time job that presented itself while keeping my part-time work with M-DAT as well, so am putting in at least 45 hours a week. On top of this we got a puppy (which we didn’t realize was going to be so much work, living on the second floor of a downtown apartment) and now have no time for anything but survival.

And my wife and I made an offer on a house.

So we’ll be making a few minor renovations before moving in around the middle of April, mainly to make it more puppy friendly. Which will hopefully in turn gain us back some time during the day to 1) sleep 2) have time to cook and clean 3) have time to work on our crafts.

It’s quite small as far as finished space, but will be 1,400 square feet plus when you include the basement. It has a single garage as well with it’s very own 100 amp electrical panel. Talk about overkill for a tiny shared garage. My wood shop will be in the garage, and clay studio in the basement. When we can get everything moved over there. The wife will have a bedroom for all of her yarn.

Hopefully we’ll be back on track before storm season up here in Nebraska!
