Oh, lovely Sarah. I could go on for days about your talent! And while we’re chatting, could you possibly have a FUNNER last name?

Oh the excitement! Today’s Daily is fresh from Re Jin Lee, also known as Bailey Doesn’t Bark, one of my favorite ceramicists! Let’s get right to it, shall we?

–

5:00am        I’m woken up by puppy cries – her bathroom time… fall asleep again.
7:30am        More puppy cries – more bathroom time. She sleeps I sleep…

8:45am    I wake up and say my ‘favorite’ 8 words: “I have to go to the post office!†Still need to work on scheduling a pick up with USPS. Before breakfast, before anything, I run over to the post office. I love the city in the morning. Feels fresh, renewed and quiet…

9:30am    ::shower::feed the dogs::water the plants…

9:45am    I finally sit down for “breakfastâ€, check emails, orders, update my blog, flickr…
Read a few magazines, visit my favorite blogs and try not to shop…

11:00am    Start working on orders. A little late, but I will catch up…

12:00pm    oh no… I forget about Neil Young’s ticket pre sale! Started at 10am. I’ve been waiting for days… I manage to get good seats anyway. Back to orders.

12:45pm    I get side tracked and work on decorating my space. I’m very excited!

1:45pm    Quick lunch.
2:00pm    Continue with orders. I’m working on a couple of big orders and I’m trying to be good with the scheduling…

4:00pm    I love watching the dogs play. Guinness is only 9 weeks old and Bailey a year. Bailey loves dogs, way more than humans, so she has lot’s of affection to offer Guinness. It’s funny to watch them interact. Bailey goes for a walk, Guinness still needs to be held…

5:30pm    Work on mood board, sketch a few ideas. I’m planning on some big changes for Bailey Doesn’t Bark in 2009. Meanwhile, I want to thrown in mini teaser collections…

6:30pm    Feed the dogs. (We are trying to get both dogs in the same schedule. It’s difficult. Bailey is a picky eater and eats whenever.)

6:45pm    I’m determined to finish decorating the space as soon as possible. It’s my first ‘official’ work space and I want to make it nice, cozy and inspiring…

7:15pm    I can’t help it… I love browsing through Etsy. It’s torture when I need to keep myself from going broke!

8:00pm    I love the recipes by Marichelle (Heart Handmade Blog). She posts them on lifeflix.blogspot.com. We either eat out or order in all the time, so this is a good change. We need to cook more… Tonight I try the broiled Italian sausages with peppers and onions. Since I don’t have hot dog buns, I cook some home fries. Forgot to defrost the sausages earlier, it takes a while…

8:20pm    I’m not experienced in the kitchen – cutting onions and potatoes last an eternity…
9:00pm    We eat and watch Emir Kusturica’s Underground.

10:30pm    It’s a long movie. We leave it to finish tomorrow. Wash up.
11:00pm    Good night.
