Pooped Pouggie Claus

Raini, snuggled between my sister Jeannette and I, taking a nap on my knee after presents were opened.

Raini in the Snow

Wayne (Lynn's son...the one with the carrots ;-) and I loaded the kiln today for the last bisque of the winter. I'll be teaching psych online this coming semester, as well as writing up the articles for the 800+ pottery photos I have yet to sort through and ready for publishing, so am not going to push to get more firings done until April.

Rainier, of course, came out with us as we moved greenware from the house to the kiln shed and loaded Red Eye up. At first, she'd disappear in the snow, leaping from place to place. That drew lines in the snow, paths she has continued to beat down, just as the path from the back door to the shed also got beaten and packed down.

Man, I love my dog! :-D

Raini the Mooch

I was busy getting some pots trimmed and completely lost track of time. Lunch time came and went, without me paying the least bit of attention. Then my sister Jeannette stopped by, bringing hamburgers for my other sister Lynn and myself.

Ah! I looked up and received my burger, just then realizing I was quite hungry! But of course, my hunger was as nothing to my dear Raini-dog, LOL. A food-hound she is and is happy to remain so!

For those of you who may want to comment on my weight --- yes, I know I am huge. It is in large part due to the form of lupus I have...my body weight and heat regulators are completely whacked.
