Weather Matches Mood

Yes the weather certainly matches my mood. My daughter-in-law was rushed back to ICU last Friday night and died on Sunday. Last night and today were the viewing and funeral services along with dark cloudy skies and rain rain rain. 10 Miles further north is sleet sleet sleet and 10 miles further than that snow snow and sleet, which is what my daughter and her family had to drive through to get home. Came home from the funeral to find I had to make phone calls to find out why my website was non-existent. Got that straightened out with a change of domain name...... I'm now at http://mamawolfcreations.com 

Don't know about the rest of you, but I find it difficult to work on days like this. Trying to sculpt turns into a session of frustration.... those little critters just don't want to cooperate when I'm in these moods. And I have to get busy, I have a commission piece that has to be done by Monday! AND!!!!! I have 5 1/2 out of 11 lap quilts to finish as Christmas presents.... SHEESH!!!! Can't we postpone Christmas for a week??????????

All I Want for Christmas

Remember I said "Santa" said if I was good he'd get me a better camera for Christmas? And remember I said I thought letting "Santa" go to California for four days of music stuff was being REALLY GOOD? Well, "Santa" went to a sale on Black Friday (on his way to work) and got me a Polaroid i835, 8 mega pixal camera with a 3" display. MUCH better than my little 4 mp Mustic. He brings it home and says "you can't open it". It seems this guy at work has a camera (not sure of the brand) that's a 12 mega pixal, still in the package!!!! He'll sell it to him for $50! That's right fifty, not five hundred. Sunday night, he forgot to bring it to work, last night? Yep, he forgot to bring it to work. John says he's sure he'll remember to bring it before Christmas. He's also not sure how long we have to be able to return the other..... may end up with 2 cameras..... 
I WANNA OPEN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GAAH!!

In the meantime....... I have a bunch of sewing projects to finish before Christmas. WHY didn't I get this hairbrained idea a few weeks sooner?????? I also have a commission piece to do before Christmas..... to include 3 dragons. I have an image in my mind..... just not sure yet how to get it in clay without losing my mind.
