I'm really good. Slept well last night and buzzin this morning
Had a class with two people and made two more fish for my garden (going to make a shoal swimming through blue lobelia )

Right off to the next class

How did your classes go?

Not as many people as I would like but overall the January figures are looking really good. Jan last year was a quiet month as people are short of money after Christmas and I felt it had been the same this year, however the finance figures show a different story and it looks like I will be close to if not overtaking my busiest month last year (August) which is a good start to 2017. It has been helped by a few private bookings and the school consultancy as well.
Next Thursday the Great Pottery Throwdown returns to BBC2 and this is good news for my business. Last time it was on I had a definite boost to bookings as people contacted me after watching it wanting to have a go. Some of whom are still coming over a year later.

So... How's the resting going?

I am being very good tonight. I have the fire burning and the washing drying in front of it. I am listening to an audiobook whilst doing some Zentangling

Sounds peaceful . Btw you're amazing, you've built up a successful small business in next to no time - that isn't easy to do!

It is peaceful until I get to an exciting bit of the book!

As for the business I read somewhere that a successful entrepreneur usually has at least two business fail before they have a successful one. This is my forth business. One failed, one I abandoned with a 2K loss and one was very successful but I did not like having to travel the country all the time leaving my, at the time, very small children.

Had a rough night but I think I must have had enough sleep in the end as I had a really long, involved weird dream! However I have woken feeling decidedly rocky today. I can feel myself on the edge of a crash. I have a Adults Pottery Party to run this afternoon but aside from that I will try and rest up a bit.
