		<title>kermodging through</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Kermodging &#8211; that is my word.  It is the effort one takes at attempting to make it through.  It is my made up word for when I am in the midst of a carving and it is difficult.  I simply &#8220;kermodge&#8221; through it.  There is a point in every piece that I do where it [...]]]></description>
