Inspired by 5am.


My weeks all look pretty similar, several mornings during the week I am in the knee deep in clay in the ceramics studio. Most afternoons are either spent with friends, working on my etsy, or working on a project.

And 3-4 mornings of the week I work as a 'visuals specialist' at a retail store, I do a little merchandising, and I work on/create most of the visual displays in my store.
For these mornings, I am up for work far before the sun comes up and usually try to take Alabama on a really short walk.

Honestly? During these little walks we take, my head is pounding from lack of sleep, my body is sore, and usually pretty gritty, and bitter for being awake so early.
But as much as I hate it, and try to fight every moment of it, this is my favorite bitter-sweet times of the day.
The way the air is so fresh, like it itself had just woken up. And the sun is just past the horizon, lighting the clouds on fire.
It's the best moments of the day.
