I have been through my first cone 04 firing with my new kiln, it was a =
success! Some of you have been very helpful with timely info and =
encouragement!

Tomorrow I will be firing again and I am anything but confident. In =
school we were so spoiled, the technician completed many aspects of =
firing. I cannot sleep, its 3:25am and have not been sleeping well =
since I began dealing with the kiln. Is this a right of passage? How =
long will it be this stressful? Any sage stories to help me thru the =
wee hours of the am?
