We work for a 2 to 4 hours then at 11 we go someplace for lunch. Today we went for the salad bar at Round Table Pizza. Then we come back by noon and do the next step. Today it was pour out the bowl mold and open up eight molds and do minor clean up of the tikis and wrap them up until I can get to them. That took another three hours. Now I'm taking a short break and then I'll carve on the 3 Bob's until 5 PM. Then we will make dinner here. Then I'll carve until 8 PM. Then it's time for a shower and either reading, TV or my Spanish Lesson on Rosetta Stone. If anyone had any doubt about RS I think it is wonderful and fun. We usually go to sleep by 10 or 11 PM. Then tomorrow it all starts again. All this work ends in wonderful fun once we start to glaze. It just takes a very long time to get to that point. We try to do this at least 6 days a week. This is not a job this is my hobby that Dan helps with so that he gets tikis from my projects. Gecko said ceramics plus his job made for a 100+ hour work week. It's so true. I wouldn't change anything. Thanks for asking, Wendy
