@Amy Cunningham Amy, I really feel for you. That sounds like such a difficult season, not just with pottery but with trying to balance everyone’s needs at home. Giving up your studio space so your son and his fiancée can save money is such a loving thing to do, but I can completely understand why it feels hard when it means your own making space has almost disappeared. And the kiln situation sounds so frustrating, especially after spending so much to have everything wired in. I think you’re absolutely right to be cautious about the frogs, the heat, fumes, the kids, the horses, and the long-term impact of humidity if you moved the kilns to the barn. None of those are small considerations. Please don’t compare yourself to people who look confident on YouTube either. So many of us are nervous behind the scenes, even if it doesn’t always show. Sometimes pottery has to pause, or shrink, or change shape for a while, and that doesn’t mean you’ve lost it. You’re just in a rough life season, and I really hope you and your husband can find a solution that gives you back a little corner of clay again.
