A bit of a mess

 And that's an understatement!!





I need another pair of hands to help me move a deep bed and a polytunnel frame...

That I can't manage on my own..and I am not dismantling them!

Then the workshop









You should see how much of Pirate's stuff I have shifted out ..shall we say his sheds are full to the doors....and Stuff has gone to the cowp ....

The kiln shed is now clear of non kiln things, I will be discussing strategy with another potter from up the coast....







So much to do ..but at least everything is inching in the right direction.

...early spring can look a bit messy.

You are going to be busy GZ. I spent today working and struggling on my own. The leeks look mighty specimens.

Barbara Rogers said...

Great to see your kiln and wheel are still there in the midst of everything. You've kind of had to focus on other things for the last little while. It will happen soon as you can...

JayCee said...

Oh my goodness. You have an awful lot of work to manage that by yourself, and deal with everything else.
Shame that northsider Dave can't pop over with a van and take some back for upcycling!

Elaine said...

It does look overwhelming. Good luck. I hope you manage to find someone to lend a hand.

Gosh, perhaps I should share photos of my lovely Victorian stables - now a repository for Keith's "useful bits of wood" which I know he will never be able to do anything with now, but he won't part with. Such a muddle out there but he still claims to know exactly where to put his hands on something - all those tins with no labels but he knows what tacks/nails/screws are in them! Yeesh . . .

Hope you soon get sorted. Over-wintered gardens never look tidy at this time of the year.

JayCee might be able to loan out P.

Ooff, that is a mighty task. Hope you can get some help soon xx

Joanne Noragon said...

An incredible amount of work. I hope some unexpected help arrives.

Oh dear, yes you have a lot to do. Hopefully, someone closer will give you a hand. You have had so much on your plate lately but will get there eventually.

Susan said...

Your kiln workshop looks free and clear. I'd call that an outstanding accomplishment. The rest will happen in due time. When I have multiple projects, I use the one day on and then one day off system. On the day off, I do something totally for me and me alone, inviting others only when I choose.

I am so excited to see the first pottery to come out of that kiln-to-be!!!

Debby said...

Oh, I wish I was there to lend a hand...unfortunately, I am here, and I have my own spring mess to put to rights!

Little by little! Slow and steady wins the race, or something like that.

Catalyst said...

Work, work, work! So much to do. So little time. So what?

gz said...

You are right, Cat. Little by little and enjoy doing it as I go

Looks like a lot of work. Makes me tired just looking at it.

Best of luck!
