Latest pottery projects! A slightly different mug shape, but improved finish. A pre-firing glazed skull lantern. A finished skeleton cat vase.

I'm getting more adventurous with glazes and my finish is improving.
A fresh clay mug with rainbows imprinted on it, with a slightly flared base. A skull lantern with an open top, with a chalky glaze of the progress pride flag. A vase painted like a skeletal cat with a red shine to the eyes and ears.

I've gotten so used to Enormous Mugs that when I decided to use my little tea cup today, I was delighted by how easy it was to handle.
A little hand-built tea cup, painted dark blue with stars and a moon. Inside there is reddish-brown clear tea and the hint of a unicorn's head. In the background there is a large tea pot on a clustered coffee table. Looking into a hand-built tea cup there is a ceramic unicorn head amongst reddish-brown tea. In the background is a large tea pot and a cluttered coffee table.

2.5 more weeks of work this year and then Coco and I will spend even more time on the couch.
On a dark blue couch, between a lavender and white pillow and a lavender hoodie, a small white dog with short wavy fur is curled in a ball, with only his light green collar visible.

I'm using Coco's current infatuation with the oversized hoodie as an opportunity to wash his fluffy blanket. I might also then sleep with it for a while to see if he prefers blankets which are freshly scented like his people.

This is gonna be a very non-scientific experiment.
On a dark blue couch, next to a flattened Hello Kitty Squishmallows, a small white dog is reclining, belly up, on a light purple oversized hoodie. One of his eyes is open and staring at the camera.

Last night I left my oversized hoodie on the couch and I guess it's Coco's now.

Coco, our dear catdog, has figured out that when I curl up on my side, where the best cuddle spot is.

I grew up with cats tucking themselves in that same spot and the comfort is heart-melting.

I assured to hard today I had to go lie in a dark room but I'm pretty proud of what I've done.

Started the frame for a wire-rim top hat and glazed a spooky cat vase.
A blue oval template for a top hat with the concentric wire ovals inside it. The word are wrapped with green raffia. A ceramic vase with triangle points, painted to vaguely resemble a cat skeleton. The eyes and ears have red shading applied to them. It looks cute and spooky. This is the front view. Side view of a ceramic vase, painted to resemble a cat skeleton.

Today Coco got scared of the waffle maker, which has a beep that reminds him of the smoke alarm. He got lots of cuddles and a chew.

Coco would like you to know that since he grew up on the West Coast, he knows sushi is food and also I am the meanest.

Yes I can apply makeup to my face but I'm not getting the results I want. Gonna work on the project bit my bit, starting with the transparent eyebrows.

The leaves were so pretty I couldn't resist making myself a crown to borrow their glory.

Coco. Since I won't sit on the couch and @soberqueerdo.bsky.social isn't home yet. (The toque is hers)
On a grey carpet, a small white dog lies down with his head close to a rainbow toque with a bright yellow pompom. In the background there is a blue dot and a couple pairs of black boots.

This weekend we went to witness a salmon run at Weaver Creek Spawning Channel. They've diverted water from the stream and created a 3km long channel to increase the salmon spawning ground.

In many ways this feels like a significant autumn activity that is tied to the people, waters and land here.

Coco has two pieces of treat stick in his paws and won't let us take them out. Even he has emotional support snacks.

An hour ago, Coco got up from where he was napping to wedge himself next to me on the couch and fell asleep again. If I starve from a lack of love, know I died how I lived: Irrationally accommodating another.

I really love my dog. This weekend he discovered he could move the throw pillows on the couch.
