Trying to tie all the networking together

This is a test because I have tried to tie Twitter, my blog and my Facebook pages together in order not to have multiple entries. Hope this works!

Twits, Faces, Blogs, Farms

Seems like I am always running behind on the list of to-dos. My weekend list was very long, including personal, business, Jim's business, friend stuff and no entries on the blog for a while. I have been contemplating Twitter, but just don't seem to see how I would have time to add this to my communication outflow. I hardly check the Facebook account and don't feel like I am really managing it. Even with my website and blog, I haven't added an email sign-up, which I have been meaning to do for a long time. Ron beat me to it. He also got out promo packets (also on my list for a long time).
On the ceramic front, I did get new art out to Grovewood Gallery in Asheville and Island Artworks in Ocracoke and have more to send to a botanical garden in Virginia.
I've been working on small sauce bowls for a wedding order and got 33 thrown yesterday. Today will be trimming them and seeing how a kiln load of refires fared. I so hate doing refires..... Just had some pinholing and haven't figured if I need to extend my soak (that's holding the kiln at the top temperature in order to give the liquified glazes time to stop gassing and boiling and smooth out). It's already at an hour and 15 minutes. Sometimes refiring to a lower temperature with patches of new glaze on the pinholes solves the problem and sometimes it makes it worse. Old acne breakout memories!
On the friend front I cooked this morning. I have a friend going through radiation and she is at the point where she is very tired. So, I just doubled up on quiches and a casserole. Tomorrow I'll make my favorite soup--yes I do know it's 500 degrees outside but I like soup all year round.
Hope your list is shorter than mine and you get yours finished with time to spare today!

Oh.....the farm thing is my sister tells me she is tending a farm on Facebook. Maybe I'll sneak a peak tonight and see how she is doing with the taters and 'maters (potatoes and tomatoes).

Winter Sunset, Trials of Facebook

A lovely sunset from the end of last week. Late winter and early spring provides us with some beautiful sky color.
I have been trying to post a page for Bluegill Pottery on Facebook. Not sure that I accomplished it after several hours of work loading images, etc. Obviously I don't quite get that medium yet. I recently signed up personally because old high school friends were on it and have been pretty hesistant to add yet another computer venue that I have communication coming in on and need to update and check constantly. I feel like it would be very easy to suck all the creative time away from making work by getting more and more wrapped up in the computer. Already the urge to post and update is pretty intense. Probably for me, this acts as the "creative writing" I've always wanted to do, so there is more to it than pensive thoughts about pottery and a journal of made work. Anyway, I am done with the computer for the day and off to make some work. If anyone has some quick knowledge about facebook pages for businesses, please shoot me a line.....
