These tiles were a pain. Had to demo a section and redo. Shook my confidence, but got to get them right.

Took a quick trip to NYC to see friends. I lived there for 19 years. I no longer enjoy being in the city and that make me sad. But as a friend said to me this morning as I was swelling on my emotions: “You wrote that chapter. Time for a new one.”

Second book I’ve read on the subject of non-monogamy. So far, this one is turning out to be pretty useful. Any other book/resource suggestions?

Last week in review. Got some work done in the audio, had a lovely Friendsgiving, practiced my ties, and stayed warm as the temps dropped and snow fell.

I would have loved to stay home today, but trying to wrap up some odd jobs before holiday markets start. Had to reset tiles around a fireplace insert which is smaller than the old one.

Since I can’t figure out how to add the music I was listening to while I made this, put on some trance music and imagine that’s what I’m moving to.

Back to tiling. The sheets of tiles fell apart so I ended up having to set them one at a time.

“I believe that love is the indispensable fuel that allows us to go on living. Someday that love may end. Or it may never amount to anything. But even if love fades away, even if it’s unrequited, you can still hold onto the memory of having loved someone, of having fallen in love with someone.”

If you have been waiting to pick up a new mug or one for the first time, a new batch has been added to my shop (link in profile). Limited colors and quantities, and I will be honest, I do not anticipate another mug drop before the end of the year. As always, thank you for the support! -Bryan
