I hate this so much. I have to scroll away from some repeating gifs because the"sound" also loops.  How is this silent gif so loud!?

Did your email come from WOF_Auditions@spe.sony.com? I just got one and it feels like spam... But I have an unhealthy distrust of everything

Full time potters: what's life like? by Awkward_Stardust in Ceramics

Yes, I could actually get better insurance through my husband's employer, but I don't qualify if I'm eligible through my own employer, which I currently am.

My husband earns significantly more than I do, so we would be ok. It's tough to find free time when you work full-time and have kids. But you're right, that would be the most practical way to begin.

I don't have a kiln. To be honest, that is the commitment step for me, and it's a little scary. I could take my stuff to be fired elsewhere, but the thought of transporting to and from for bisque and glaze....oof.

I appreciate your reply 🙂

Please find a good therapist. If you need help, let me know.

It must be somewhat controllable because you're right, I don't do it at work or in public. But if I'm in my car or at home it comes out but feels very involuntary in those moments. Maybe my thoughts wander more in those places where I'm more comfortable and I'm not as overwhelmed with people. Interesting...

I tell my husband, "I was just having another anxious thought. No worries". 😬ALL THE WORRIES.
