Therapy

Spent the day working, and considering the great cruelty humans perpetrate upon one another.  Abused kids are hard to see, but had a breakthrough in trust with one today.  The Rewards are tremendous.

As far as Art goes... made some Jewelry over the weekend in preparation for a sale I am having the first weekend in June.  I try to make enough money to allow me to continue to buy supplies, and continue creating.  I can assure people they will not find anything like mine elsewhere!  I work priimarily in glass and sliver.I also plan to do some more polymer clay beads.  I am trying to clean out our walk in closet to make it into a Polymer Clay studio.  My studio attached to the garage (that my wonderful husband, Virgil made for me) is too dusty for clay, but good for my mixed media stuff and beadwork.  Out there, the dogs lay by my feet and the music can be loud.  Doesn't get much better than that!  The kids tend to interrupt me less there and time passes without knowing  it.  In the zone of creativity. 

Isaiah (my son) have been in conflict more than usual lately.  I found myself having little patience with him, and I think he has been jealous of the attention his sister got last week when she was ill.  Today, he apologized for acting like he had been, and I was able to affirm that I would have more patient.  The beauty of being able to be honest with feelings, and admit you are wrong even with your kids is so healthy.  Too bad we have to get there before we can agree.  We can keep trying. 

So, these are the rambling of the Cruse Muse today.
