Today and tomorrow are the last days before the big craft fair in St. John’s. My last glaze firing is in the kiln now (907 degrees Celsius! Only another 300 and change to go!), and will be unloaded tomorrow morning. Bottoms will be ground, and pots will be packed up. At 2:00 tomorrow afternoon, I’ll show up at my dad’s, haul my booth[2] out of his basement[1], and get it set up at the Arts and Culture Centre. Then a few more expeditions for pottery, with which to fill the shelves. And tiles, to hang on the walls.
And I will be ready and nervously/giddily awaiting customers come noon Wednesday.
[1] It’s been painted! It will have shelves! It has walls that can be covered in tiles! It will all work. Yes.
[2] It’s blue now. I am happy.
