365 RED: Hobbies; Therapy

 You just never know when your hobby is going to turn into therapy, and when a pandemic is going to come along and you`re gonna need therapy.... I mean pottery.... four times a week. 

I took up pottery as a means of spending more time with my eldest daughter, and because I`d always wanted to learn how, but with zero intention of doing anything more than learning how. I had zero intention of still being at it four years later. 

I`m grateful for this hobby, the studio, the guy who runs it - about whom a book should be written. It`s been a rough, ugly year. I`m glad to have had this place to escape to.
