So tired of snow!

It is snowing again. My toes are throbbing. I originally was thinking about going to studio work today, but the snow is putting a damper on my plans. I get to go to my referral dr. on Thurs. morning to get confirmation that I did in fact get frostbite in January. It is really the only option that was not ruled out by original dr. The only advice she was able to give was to stay out of snow and cold (no shoveling) and to keep my foot warm. It becomes fascinating shade of purple whenever it is cold.

One reason I would rather be at my studio is because I have show applications to complete. I hate applying to shows. Recently, my confidence has been waning because I keep getting wait listed. I really am not sure what I did right in the past to get into shows and what I have done wrong with current wait listing. I was wondering, if I somehow got black listed by Zap- I do not know how or why they would, but I have got into show this season that require snail mail methods instead of completely electronic. Maybe it is just paranoia, but I think I need to figure out something different. I really want to get into the next two shows that I have not applied to.

I will be hosting a group at my studio in a week and a half. They are all local designers and I am still trying to figure out how to rearrange the space to fit us all in comfortably. Part of the evening I am supposed to demo, which hopefully will go well. I think I am going to try setting it up like a cooking show. I have started making many pairs of earrings in the same style, and will complete them to a variety of stages. I also thought I may make a number of rings or paraboloids.
