Hey, check it out - a new post to the blog. Oooooh, cool!
Just wanted to drop in to say that I realize I've been incredibly neglectful of this blog site. Inexcusable (although I have a few decent excuses)! Horrible (well, it's not really that big of a deal, is it?)! Won't let it happen again (well, let's not make any rash promises)!
So what's been going on? Well, first of all, today is Christmas. Woohoo! Had a blast with the wife and kids. What a joy to have a couple toddlers running though the house playing with all there toys. The place is an absolute mess, but there's a lot of joy in here too. I did find a few things under the tree for me as well. The small bowl Kelton coring set (that's the last size set I needed), a shiny new 60 gallon air compressor (well, that wasn't really under the tree), and a fabu Nirvana Unplugged DVD (get this - it's freekin incredible, and it blows my mind that it was filmed almost 15 years ago!). Thank you Santa Claus.
Since waaaay back when I made the last blog entry I've been doing mostly turning stuff. Bowls, platters, hollow forms, etc, etc. You're usual artsy fartsy stuff. I honesly have no idea what I'm gonna do with all these round things. There's no more room in the house. Poor unuspecting relatives might be receiving round things as gifts for the foreseeable furture.
I'm also in the midst of my first big flatwork project in quite a while. A scrapbooking desk/hutch for wifee. It's gonna be big. It's gonna be green (just wait - you'll see). It's gonna be heavy to lug up to the second floor. It's about 1/2 way done now, and the hard parts are behind me so it should be smooth sailing. No promises on timing - especially since I blew the original Christmas 2007 deadline out of the water. More to come.....
