I feel like it was October and I blinked and now we're in mid-December. I've done so many shows in the last two months and only have one left.

My day job has been insanely busy the last few weeks with a new client. The week before Thanksgiving I got a cold which is no big deal, but it settled in my ears and that's made me deaf. I've gotten a glimpse into my future of constantly asking people to face me and repeate themselves louder.

All of this has made me pull back on what I actually need to get done before my last show (Brandywine Holiday Festival of the Arts December 21 and 22). I have some custom mugs I'm making for the gentleman who runs the Brandywine show plus I needed a few more crab mugs. Aside from that the goal is - get everything bisqued and fired. More end of year stats coming in the next couple of weeks, but with these mugs that means I have made 302 mugs this year. That's nearly 100 more than I made last year and I don't believe I'm going to have much inventory left after the show next weekend (she says totally jinxing herself).
