We spent the entire 3 day weekend working on getting ready for our house warming next saturday. I haven't even started cleaning inside yet. The good news is that the wicker is all repainted. The bad news is that the paint sprayer back fired and I wasn't wearing safety goggles. High gloss exterior grade paint, color "granite", directly into the eyeballs. After rinsing with the hose directly into the eyes and another round in the bathroom sink, I finally got out all of the paint. Did anyone see the episode on The Office where they are making the safety video and Andy has to use the eye washer? Yep. It was like that. Left eye still irritated. But hey! The furniture looks great!
(Note to self: you are not invincible, as young as you once were, nor a stellar house keeper. I really need to lower my expectations.)
So. Here's a few favorite pieces from
Chicago's sculpture class. I didn't know what to expect since it was my first time teaching at this particular location. I have to say that I had a wonderful time. And I got to connect with several people with whom I've developed friendships over the past couple of years. My life is blessed and I am thank-full.
