Still working hard!

The sale is next weekend and I can't make anything else for it, but after our studio sale will be fall Etsy Sales and I want to have a good jump on that. Here is what we have done and have in progress right now.

House Ro damn near finished all the sorting of stuff that has been cluttering our living room. A combination of items brought home from the storage unit we cleared out and personal items from the Creative Oasis. All have found a space in the attic. She as done 98% of this on her own, only using me occasionally for muscle and more often using Morgan for muscle. In anycase we were able to comfortably have Catherine and her boyfriend over for dinner tonight. She made Escarole soup and Pasta. It was delicious and RO made the escarole soup vegetarian so I could experience it. No little meatballs in mine :)

Still do do is her glass studio which will have to go to the scary side of the basement for storage. I am guessing that I'll be helping with some of that tomorrow. We also need to scrub down the kitchen and bathroom. Then we will be more or less ready for company.

In the studio I have 74 round mugs to glaze, 20 of which are a special order. 16 Rice Bowls, no notches and about 40 Tankards to glaze too. I finished up 8 small canister pots, and made 8 medium sized ones today. I also threw 24 bowls for soup mugs and 32 cereal bowls. Most of this is in the bisc kiln now. It's been a very good production week and I plan of continuing to produce like this right through until Christmas when I plan on a mini vacation.

Tomorrow will be trimming the medium jars and adding handles to the lids, then throwing the large jars and some plates, maybe some butter keepers too. Then I think there will be glazing for a couple days and while the basement is so damn hot, I'll head upstairs to help clean. Usually the bathroom scrubbing is mine.
