It just may be better than you think it is, most things we craft ourselves are like that. <br /><br />But one thought on all of this--in the midst of the mindlessness of that fire, there is that pottery, something in the middle of chaos that you can control, handle, shape and whittle down to size. I'm alright, it says. And you are.mittenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04878611591683283429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13911862.post-90761372933895331442011-03-08T19:15:38.001-05:002011-03-08T19:15:38.001-05:00Anne, Diane, and Michele--thank you so much for yo...Anne, Diane, and Michele--thank you so much for your kind comments.<br /><br />And Michele--I keep something from each of the class sessions so I can chart my progress.

I did a pottery class when I first started working and my mother has lovingly kept all the pieces and I am soooooooo embarrassed every time I see my wonky wobbly efforts. And I'm so glad your house is finally on its journey back to you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08533913253403252799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13911862.post-11640433911389370742011-03-07T21:04:36.220-05:002011-03-07T21:04:36.220-05:00The destruction seems enormous, beyond comprehensi...The destruction seems enormous, beyond comprehension, how can a person possibly begin to reverse it?
