I’m going to try to make this today.

I started it last night, but it all started to go to pot and I decided to call it a day.

It’s a beautiful piece of turquoise. The colour is just stunning. Seems a shame to mess it up with my design but, as usual, I just can’t help myself.

I’ve made a few other pieces, but have yet to take some pics of them so I’ll get back to you on that.

I’ve started taking Willow into the studio with me because she just barks and barks when I leave her in the back garden, and I can’t trust her alone in the house because Pickles hates her and is on a mission to kill her. But I don’t think she likes it. I don’t know if it’s the noise I make, or that she’s simply bored, but she just sits and stares at me the whole time.

It’s not very relaxing when the dog’s not relaxed, and because she sits so close to me I get worried that I’m going to roll into her with my wheely chair. It’s all worry.

I’ve taken in her bed. Her chews. Nothing works.

It makes me feel bad.

And this cat, one of four strays in the back garden, just sits and looks at me also.

It’s a getting a little freaky.

Look at him. This could easily be a Stephen King moment.

Sooo,

That’s what I’m off to do today. Hopefully the soldering won’t be as completely disastrous as it was last night and I’ll be able to set the turquoise. If not, I’m just going to have to give it up and join the freaky cat and sit in the corner of the garden until my frustration dissipates.

If he’ll have me that is.

Btw. Don’t look him in the eyes …
