It's cold. It was colder earlier this week, but the more than seven days of constant sub-zero temps are starting to drag on me and I feel cold. Part of that is also a lack of sleep - the end of the week is when I start to drag. But I need to be "up" for when I unlock the store. Sometimes I think my Assistant Manager and I should be awarded Academy or Tony Awards for the performances that we manage to put on when customers are in the store and we are either feeling poorly or just plain tired to the bones.

My DH simply doesn't understand this. He stays up until midnight, but he sleeps until 8 or 9 in the morning. So he's getting his 8 hours of sleep. I get between 5 and 6 hours when I'm lucky. And all I can do is think that I'm burning my candle from both ends.

But I have so many projects coming to my head for upcoming enamel projects. And I have a new piece of equipment that I'm going to be ordering that may allow me some really fun flexibility. Since I'm planning wall pieces, not pieces for adornment, I'm really hoping that I can manage to accomplish in reality what my brain is telling me I need to do. Not just in the construction, but also the colors, the shading, and the accents. I need some time alone with my kiln.....
