The important things in life

Well, one more day and I am off.....so of course I am lazing around pondering what is actually important in life.....why you ask?

My suitcase sits in front of me and I have come to a very hard choice......do I need clothes or more clay stuff?  Choices, choices, choices.  On one hand I don't think you gals would appreciate me naked but on the other hand, the more stuff I bring, the less you will notice me at all!  LOL!

You know my priorities are right though when you open the lid to my suitcase and 3/4 of the space is my pasta machine, lots and lots of goodies......the remaining 1/4 is for my clothes.  You all won't care if I am in the same jeans and tshirt everyday will you?

I am so excited, can't wait to see you all! And to those taking the beginner class today, I wish you all the best.  And please, if anyone happens to have some pretty heavy tranquilizers handy (horse ones would work!) please bring them.....Vickie is just a tad excited these days.  (Just joking for those of you who might not know me or understand my sense of humour!)

Boy do I work well under pressure!

Time is disappearing fast!  I swear I have lost a week somewhere.  I can't possibly be leaving for Canada in a little over a week......must be the age thing.....but if I am getting old then that means that Vickie is only getting older! Hee Hee!

So, here I am, trying to put together my class.  You see, I happened upon something by accident and that is what I am teaching as part two of the surface techniques.  But the problem is, an accident is just that, something that happens that you don't plan on.  Having accidents, at least for me, is pretty much a daily routine.  Trying to repeat an accident.....not so easy!!  But today I sat down and decided that today was the day, I was going to figure out my accident or die trying.  And guess what?  I am alive baby!!!  So, some wonderful pieces are in the oven cooking, instructions are being typed up and pictures have been taken.  Phew!!!!  I don't know if you guys will understand but I for one sure the heck don't want Vickie mad at me! 

I can't wait to meet you all.....I have heard wonderful things about the creative bunch up there in Canuckville!  I am also looking forward to getting out of this heat.....Vancouver Island here I come!

See you all in a little bit!  Be ready to have lots of accidents!  Because that is the only way I do things!

Oh and this blogpost was done by the one, the only, firstborn of Vickie the great.....Lisa Pakosh!!
