Quick!

before they run away!
Pots!

 I was going to take some pictures of Mark while he was carving these lamps.
But-turn my back and they are done.

I walked to the house and when I came back they were finished.
Now, don't get the idea that he is so talented and fabulous that he whipped out the design in 5 minutes or less, it was me walking away to do something here at the house and not getting back to the studio in time.
There are things happening out there right behind my back.

I love the one on the right. (But don't tell the one on the left... I like him as well, really I do.)

 Look at me all fat and full where I should be.


Today I had to take a trip to see my dentist.
It seems I lost a bit of a filling and I was sure it was going to be bad news. I had rehearsed over and over in my head what I was going to say if he pronounced for me another root canal.
I was going to say- pull it out, I don't want it.
Instead he came in and said," so you broke a tooth".
"No", I said, "I just lost a bit of filling".
Well let's just look and see.
( here is where I was ready for the worse.)
Looks like you lost a bit of filling and everything looks good.
Let me just seal it up for you.
He did.
As I left to pay he said, "No charge, Merry Christmas".
Yahoo- I smiled all the way home.
  

Honey pots.....

just waiting for some good local honey to fill them up!

It made me think of those random acts of kindness that we do for someone and how it feels to both give and receive.
