My visits to the hospital have slowed down considerably which has been lovely. It seems my drug levels are pretty good now, energy levels are fairly consistent. So all in all my blip is pretty much fading into the past.
However, there is now a hiccup on the horizon. Next Wednesday (4th July) I am having key-hole surgery to remove my gall bladder and possibly my appendix. All being well this will be very standard and will mean that the fairly consistent pain in my side will depart.
Other news - sculpting has been pretty slow but I have been working hard turning the workshop at home into Prospect Studio and am making a wall plaque to put up at the front.
I have also been working on my first commission and been trying out my new small kiln. It appears that I have an enormous amount to learn!!
Two of my pieces have been out in the big wide world too. I won second place in the Tilehurst Eistedffod with my globe which was very exciting and have just exhibited the globe and Tension at Reading Arts Week. I went to my first opening night which was great fun. Prosecco and posh nibbles were the order of the night, along with a fashion show and musical entertainment not to mention having a good browse at the 300 pieces of art work that were on show. Someone was even interested in commissioning me to make another globe!
I can see now how the time has flown by!!!
Anyway, as I know how God looked after me during my blip, I know he will continue to do so through this hiccup but your prayers would be much appreciated. I should be in and out in the day.
Thank you all x
