Day 8

I visualized:

This morning, I saw my studio space a little more clearly. The place where I was speaking with the marketing person is at the far end of the studio and has a comfortable squishy brown leather couch and matching chairs and a coffee table. This is where I do meetings instead of a conference room. The regular workspace is across from the door as one enters. It's in the corner, roughly where my workspace is now. In the corner just next to the door is the soldering and kiln area - this has smooth concrete slabs on the walls - almost like a shower surround and a concrete counter (actually, it may be that stuff they use in labs and not concrete). It's a good space for the heat and flame involved in firing and soldering.

Today, I made this progress:

• I ripped out what I did yesterday on the second assignment because I wasn't happy with it; I started it again using the tips she provided and am much happier this time with my progress.
  
• I made 1 pendant for sale and started a necklace with Swarovski crystals (the first I've done with a heavy concentration of them).
  
• I did my meditations
• I spoke with the internship coordinator at the high school. She seemed enthusiastic about the idea. We spoke for 15 minutes or so about the business and what I'd be hoping the intern would accomplish. She's going to enter it into their "internship possibilities" database so that students who might be interested can see it.
• I read my intent statement.
  

I am grateful:

• that I met all but one of my goals from yesterday
• that I made good use of my jewelry making time today
• that Eni gave me some very helpful hints about improving the current project and finished with: "Keep working, you are doing very good!" Woohoo! Gotta love that progress!!

Tomorrow, I will:

• perform my morning and evening meditations and read my intent statement
• finish the iteration of my second assignment
• make at least 1 piece of jewelry for sale
