intent and determination….

one reaction…. to the recent death of my mother was to pull in reins, and cancel all activities.  To the contrary, my dear.  

I have not cancelled my November trip to Washington;

I am determined to go to Hawaii in the next couple of years;

I will spend time at the ocean periodically;

I will go to England, and maybe stay for a while.

Rarely do I go anywhere without purpose, without plans.  It’s time for exploration, to see why these places draw me back.  Day trips — or two-day trips are attractive, and with Mondays off, will be a probability.  I’m hoping that I can talk Sam into doing just that this week.

Before I go too far, I must release most of this pottery that is cluttering my life right now.  It is vibrating with desire to be owned by someone other than the person who formed it, who shaped it into current form.  I think, before long, that I will ask the manager of the apartments if I can use the community room for a show/sale.  Could be quite a lot of fun… and maybe even some profit.  Wow!  I like that idea.

I’m going to work on that concept right now.
