Fobia taken care of - back to work.
It has been a very busy last few weeks for me
with the underlying fear of having 5 teeth extracted -
It sounds silly but I am terrified of the dentist - on top of that I had to switch to a new one as my old one retired (I procrastinated for 2 years till I finally called in January and found he had retired) so I had to find a new one to extract what I thought might be 2 teeth - I found one and by the time the appointment was over I booked the extractions for today the 26th - 5 teeth - clears the top so I can have nice pearly whites in a month or so and one lower molar that was about to go to the aching stage. I've had a few panic attacks and in the office this morning - at the tears stage -
I 'm not toothless as I have a partial plate that covers the front and two of the ones taken out so no bag lady look, potentially no teeth problems for next few years ? I hope so
the silly thing is I know there is no pain as I have to be totally put out and typically after there is no pain , my face is not swollen or bruised - and that is what it looks like today - the best results possible - not even the freezing needle points hurt (although I have taken pain killers just in case) - I just have to take it easy for next couple of weeks while the extraction holes heal. so relieved -
now I can move on and stop thinking about it - I've avoided commitments , calling people back and just could not do stuff without thinking about the extractions- potential basket case
although I had work every day, a birthday party for my 12 year old granddaughter - we made tie dye tshirts - that was so much fun - got the dye kit from Dharma trading - was so easy - I bought bins at dollar store as wells as cookie racks so sit on bins to make it easy to die the shirts -
I need to get moving for the show is coming in a couple of weeks and my grand daughter wont be able to help
I need to return calls about a horse I'm selling
and to Toronto Flameworking - now that my head is back on straight

and some rainbow filler beads
started with a rainbow
and some rainbow filler beads
More Turtles
I got to the torch on Friday and gave myself a task of 10 small turtles and got them done
The temperature has dropped and is chilly this morning -50F and only going to about 64F - ideal weather to torch in - not too hot - not too cold so I hope to spend most of the day in the studio
I think today I switch to fish - maybe 10 small and a few large fish as a goal

More Turtles...............
I may be Turtle'd out - I so did not want to make turtles last night - tried a colour called green slime - like the colour but would have preferred it stay opaque but its a transparent and sort of eerie clear - I did add a bit of color to the base but not much - and did a red dragon blood - I really like how red it is.
and yes...... More Turtles
Took time to make another couple of turtles - a large and a small - if I can keep going I'll have enough for my Turtle Festival in Mid July
A few more purple ones then I need to switch to something greenish
up to 10 big turtles and 10 small turtles need at least 35 more small turtles
More Turtles........
Yes only got to torch on Sunday morning and made more turtles
these are the smaller turtles
Needed some Purple ones since the show is called the The Purple Turtle Art Festival
