It is almost 8 months since the flood, and itt will be
exactly 10 months since I was told to evacuate my condo on April 20th. I had a
meeting this morning regarding the rebuild stage and although I was not given
an exact timeline, it has been estimated that it will take 3 months from Feb 3rd
before we will get occupancy for the units that were destroyed. So I was a
little off on my Easter guestimate, but notby much. If all things go as
planned, with no supply hiccups, or subtrade shortages/difficulties, I might be
back by May 3rd. My fingers are crossed, but I am not holding my
breath. Once the dry walling starts (possibly next week if inspections are ok
for the fire stopping work that needs to be done), that would only take a
couple of days apparently. Then we will begin meeting with the contractor to
discuss finishings etc. The thing that might tip me over the edge will be the
7am weekly meetings with the contractor and the owners. I don’t get out of bed
sometimes until 7:30 am. That is going to be tough, but I will just have to
suck it up.
On the pottery front, I have bisqued round one for the
galleries, but I still need to glaze. I am in the middle of getting work ready
for the second bisque firing and it will have large bowls, platters, casseroles
etc in it. I threw some really lovely 7-8lb bowls over the last week, as well
as some large 5-6lb platters and a couple more teapots, ‘cause you just can’t
have too many teapots in my opinion.
No pottery pics today, so here is a puppy pic…
