I didn't post yesterday at all! I was just exhausted yesterday, mentally and physically. It was a push to get myself to sew last night... I feel like I'm beating my head against the wall with these costumes and it's just so tiring and depressing. so here's a sketch... I have no idea. I know I drew it in the car going to St Louis a while back, but I ...
today was pretty icky. My migraine was still hanging in there, but my nausea was off the charts and I almost went home after lunch. But I hung in there... got home and took a little nap. Then Chase took a face cast of me for my Ms Marvel mask, which actually felt really good on my headache LOL and then a shower. Right now I feel ok. I think ...
This is a neat article about obsolete jobs, relinking from Ash. One of the things that stands out to me is that we had a milkman/milk delivery when I was a kid. The article says only 7% of homes had milk delivery by 1975. I think we stopped getting it around 86 or 87? It's a weird little leftover sort of thing that I'm glad I got to experience. We had a little ...
Chase is AWESOME!!!!
Had a really fun day with Dad and @LindenAsh at the Estate sale. Basically the house was built around the Civil War, and has belonged to the same family up until a month ago when the last family member died. We got there around 11:30 and the line was stretched back out a ways. They were only letting around 60 people at a time inside, to keep from getting overcrowded. When someone ...
Today was Cat's birthday so we all went to Seize the Clay. It was a lot of fun. The highlight was Cat's Stank-Eyed Cinderella. (After I took this pic she scraped one of the eyeballs off and redid them to be more even LOL)
This is a test post. As you can see below, Blogger is getting rid of the kind of blog I use - so this is my new wordpress blog. It's pretty bare bones at the moment, I'm still working on it.
The nastiest "critique" I've ever gotten in regards to my artwork was this: "Real artists use a ruler, why can't you?" It was in the middle of a very long, very unasked-for and very "holier-than-thou" critique, but that one line has been the part of it that stuck with me. The thing is, for that particular project? I actually HAD used a ruler.
Weekend was nice and laid back. New Year's Eve I was off work. Chase had to go shoot the game. I stayed home, and I think got a little sick? Seemed like I was fighting off a cold or something. I laid on the couch most of the day and drew a little bit. New Year's was lame, probably the lamest New Year's Eve we've ever had and that's saying ...
I really hate admitting to "liking" anything in regards to Walmart, but I have to admit that I really like two of their Christmas commercials, This one I've only seen on tv once. Big box of meat! The little brother's reaction is cute. This other one gets a lot more play, and it's not as funny - but I enjoy the song they used, and I have a good laugh ...
