The final push

by Kathi on Monday, May 5, 2008

Is on!. Tomorrow the flooring starts going in. this means today the studio gets totally packed up and moved into either the kitchen, back patio or garage. Then one last room of carpeting to rip out. I also have to move the sectional sofa out and get the last remnant of carpeting from under it. Back? what back? I don’t need no steenkin back!

On a happier note, we had our Relay for Life this weekend (24 hour walk to raise funds for the American Cancer Society) Our Relay, here in Bakersfield, is the second largest in the whole US, the largest in California, and a training site for other relay committees. As of last count we raised over 1.7 million, with money still coming in. The final tally will be at the end of August. I am so very proud of our community and the big companies that match and sponser our event.

I had a table full of creations, many by myself and others donated by my friend Moe, from Hawaii. She sent a box of necklaces and earrings and other things for me to sell to help raise money. I went with a large box of items and came home with a very tiny box. I raised an additional $160 selling these small items.

I promise, dadragon will be back creating within the next couple of weeks. Until then, I will fold wax paper cranes. Happy claying to you all.

trust me when I say anything but carpeting will be a blessing in a studio. Right now I am in the middle of schlepping my studio to various places, outside, the garage, and the clay to the kitchen. it sucks. I want to clay.
