Hi! So, I had my second pottery class, and it rocked! I was able to make five bowls, and they all look pretty decent. I’m so happy I decided to take this class. It makes me very happy. :)
Everything else is going well. I had an emergency surgery on Friday night that kept me at work 3.5 hours after close (no, not the entire time was in surgery). It was a great experience, though I admit, I was pretty much terrified to try it at first. One of the techs, Shannon, kept me nice and calm and helped me out. Mainly just by saying “You got this.” haha!
Our air conditioning unit flooded. The little pan that collects water overflowed. We don’t know how long it had been going on. I only discovered it because as I went to feed the cats Saturday morning, I stepped on a wet part of the carpet. Atkins investigated (since I had to go to work) and discovered the AC problem. Unfortunately, it looks like it had been going on for some time as the small bookcase (which is against a wall that is shared with the AC unit) was moldy on the bottom. We decided to get rid of it. The larger bookcase was also wet, so we took everything down and are letting it dry. I think I may just get rid of that one as well and get decent-looking, larger bookcases. Here’s a pic of what the living room looks like now. (Bonus–you can also see our new tv.) Here’s another pic if the link ever comes back up. For some reason, that link is a little dodgy right now.
So, that’s our business at the moment. We are trying to figure out what to do for book storage. Should we get a nice couple of bookshelves and recreate the setup? Or should we move our books into the office and do something new in the living room. I’m not sure what that would be…
Lots of choices!
P.S. Don’t forget to check out the wedding photos!
