After quite a few years of procrastinating about it, we’re finally in the process of having central air conditioning installed in our home. This is in part to keep me slightly less cranky and more comfortable when the heat of summer kicks in. Though most years I’ve toughed it out, that’s probably not great for the baby, and I think [personal profile] sythyry should be spared any extra crankiness beyond the required. In addition, this adds ductwork and improved circulation to the house, which will with any luck improve the air filtration and circulation, making my dust and mold allergies less problematic, and also giving the Moth a better shot at not developing same allergies.

In order to allow the nice contractor-people to do this, [personal profile] sythyry had to unload all of the things that were in the attic, so things could be installed up there. We have many many things. We have my wedding dress, in a big old box. We have a guitar I haven’t played since high school. We’ve got cookpots and cutlery and clothing that doesn’t fit. We’ve got a big container of herkimer diamonds, dug out of the ground in upstate New York many years ago.

And we have pottery. A lot of pottery. Some of you may not be aware that [livejournal.com profile] sythyry, among his myriad other talents, is a skilled and prolific amateur potter, and has been for nearly two decades. Some of it gets used or displayed in our house, and a lot of it goes on to friends and relatives as gifts. But a lot of just never quite finds a home, and has ended up in storage. Our attic is getting kind of full, and we still need to put away quite a bit of the stuff that’s currently in the arts-and-crafts-room-that’s-becoming-a-nursery. In addition, most of this pottery is stuff that ranges from perfectly good to rather wonderful, and I kind of think it’s a shame to leave it gathering dust any more. So we’re going to have a pottery giveaway!

Here are the rules… )
