Easily defeated

greenstormIt seems to take me approximately 2 visits per blood draw at the lab -- one to show up and learn there's something wrong with the paperwork, go home, call all the doctors, call them to follow up, and then two weeks later go back to the lab and get the actual test done. It's easy to give up after the first one.
I've had a similar experience with Tucker this week; he's been busy and we've been started chatting, I'd like to talk, and he heads out to a social thing, couple times in a row.
On the plus side I sold some pottery & soap at the craft fair, including repeat soap customers, and the gift shop at the historic site is carrying some of my pottery now. I also made and enjoyed making a pretty nice table setup. Turns out I love when people come up to the table, pick up one or two things, and based on what they do and how they touch and hold the mugs I can pick one up and hand it to them and it's the one they want. There are a few things -- handle or no handle, glaze tone, size -- that make up people's mug preferences. People also like marbled mugs. It's neat to get that feedback because then I can iterate on it.
I like when people I know end up with my things.
But, the result of two days at the craft fair was a full day in bed yesterday and some muscle and momentum issues today. It means I missed the pottery studio open day and I'm sad about that.
I also needed to do more housecleaning for Kelsey to come and missed out on that, so we'll see how that goes.
We also had our first real snow finally. It's a bit of a relief.
