Urgh seriously.

Believe me you are better off in Idaho than Washington. Washington currently has some of the highest unemployment areas in the country due to the disjointed recovery "plans" of the governor. Information from the Commerce Department. If you want better life style move north out of the Boise area! Most of Idaho is doing pretty well compared to Boise as far as Sars is concerned.
Is it cheaper to buy CUC direct from Florida?
 
Hello friends

Merry Xmas to all my friends on here and those who are not as well. Sorry been busy so here are some updates. My tank is now completely aptasia free my file fish made very very short work of the army of those little bloody cusses. Tank has dropped nitrates a lot since I cut feeding in half and I’m still increasing cuc. Frogspawn is mad maybe because the clown is being too aggressive with it. Gonna try and move it higher to see if it helps.

Been a while since I updated on the pottery so here are some new work in progress and finished. The large Rebecca pot is the latest, it’s 28 high 9 wide and I used 13 pounds to make the pitcher and about a pound for the handle which will be trimmed and finalized after the shape holds on its own. Also im pretty sure these are all new, there may be 1’or 2 that I already posted but I have sooo many pages it will take me a year to find the post lol.

Hello;

It’s funny you say that, I made a snowman out of porcelain yesterday but it’s too wet for me to really move around so letting it dry. It’s gonna be my way of having Olaf

Will a clown fish kill or harm its host by chance? If I more the location, will the clown follow?

My clowns have always followed the frogspawn when I moved it in my tank. Over the years they’ve irritated and killed countless heads on mine.

They’ve been known to pelt anemone and coral to death from stressing them out

Sarah, thes are absolutely beautiful!!! You really have a wonderful talent, are you planning on selling any of them?
 
OMG!!! I guess it’s too late to start a new thread but I saw this and freaked out then realized it was 2018!! Glad all is well!

Hello,

Lol welcome and yeah it was 2018 but soooo much has changed. It’s a long thread but it covers a
Lot on my tank and a Lot on just normal life things. My tank has been through the 9th rink of hell. Having my nephew urinate in it for fun, I would actually be happy if they did again lol, nothing bad happened.
 
Sarah, thes are absolutely beautiful!!! You really have a wonderful talent, are you planning on selling any of them?

Hello,

Ahhh thank you soo kindly. I have given a few away just cause. But a lot have told me to sell them etc which I don’t mind doing. I love to make people happy and love when they appreciate the work I have created. Which is why I always just gave them away. The pics shown I have all of them, but I do plan on selling them, but just so I can produce more which pays for the clay, glaze, and kiln use. I don’t care about the time etc but making people happy is ideal. Most of the ones shown were test pieces to see how glazes turned out because in pure honesty one never actually knows. I have made two pieces glazed the same way and the look totally different. But some show pieces I have listed on here. But I usually don’t set a price I just say what ever you think it’s worth to you is fine with me. I still have plus 20’ glaze lol
And maybe 30 finished at home and maybe 15 that need low fire then glazed then high fire. But yeah or if someone really want one bad, and can’t afford
Or pay etc they can just have it. I do take photos of each piece and log everything so I can always make more.

I really like the first one in the group you just posted but do you you have pictures of the others that you’ve finished? And of course I would pay you :) but would like to see any of the others you have done.

Yes this one. I was just asking if you had pictures of others you made but not the ones in this group that you still had .

Hello,

Yes I do have pics of others however that are some that have not been finished yet. The process is well you throw the item, then you wait till it can be trimmed. (I only have to trim bowls usually, I throw the foot into the vases etc). Then it dries to green ware, then, low fired, then glazed then High Fire). I have close to 20 plus I still have to glaze but can take pics of them. It would be 100 times faster if I had my own kilns. If there is something you like or shape etc I can always make what you want (we’ll try lol).
 
Amazing! So fun. Merry Christmas and keep up the good work. It looks like you are having fun at the wheel so to speak.

Hello;

Lol yeah being behind the wheel is tons of fun and lol if I fall asleep at least I get slapped with some wet mud:). Merry Xmas to you also.

I do want to thank all of my dear friends for the kind words. I definitely hope 2021 is better than this year. For everyone I hope that this Xmas is fully of joy and relaxation. I know it’s hard with the covid and not being with family for this year, but the beauty of family is they will always be there.
