Time flew, so we must have been having fun, right? We had a wonderful time with friends visiting; of course we tried to convince them they had to move, but... that's a lot to ask. On the one hand it felt like we ran around, but as also spent a fair amount of time just chilling. We shared the coast, the dreary winter weather, the city, and a lot in between. I think my favorite was the day at the beach; the beauty, the energy, the fun... Winston had traveled with us the day before, and when we left him at home later that afternoon, he watched us leave with a most pitiful look on his face, so Pat insisted we travel with him the next day, so he joined us at the coast and had a blast, as always.



After reading, planning and getting all the goodies necessary, I finally fiddled with the Art Clay Silver, and it's definitely something I plan to continue playing with! It's a tricky medium, but the results are fairly immediate and stunning, so I'm jazzed to be playing with it. The photos don't do the pieces justice, but that's something I'll have to work on, too.


The update on the weight loss is postponed; I slipped back into old habits this weekend, partly due to convenience but also as a bit of an experiment in and of itself. It was a good reminder of the many rewards that avoiding those habits brings. I'm turning my focus back now. Scot's down four pounds, though, so someone in this house is a big loser!
