I'M DRAWING

I didn't do much quilting today because I was falling asleep all day long. I went to bed at 2a.m last night and woke up at 6:30 this morning. I was falling asleep while on the computer, while trying to quilt, while trying to read, I even think I starting dreaming while dozing off on my chair. Hard as I tried I couldn't keep my eyes open. The small amount of time that I wasn't sleepy I drew this little dog. I have got to practice, I can see I'm pretty rusty. I bought some art supplies at Barnes& Nobel at some really good prices for my son in CA who's into painting big time. I couldn't resist and bought some supplies for me to. I also bought a new chair which I needed badly because the old one was really aggravating my sciatic nerve. New chair, no pain. Don't even get me started on that sciatic pain. There are days when it sticks with me like an old piece of gum on hair. Tonight will probably be another sleepless night since I took at nap at 7p.m. I swear I have got to get my sleeping hours back to normal.

I have to go put some anti itching cream on my little dog because she has a big red bump on her little forehead. A mosquito probably got her.

Just adorable. I never did get the hang of drawing/sketching. That's why I think I like rubber stamping so much - the drawing is done and I just work on the composition/displaying.

I love the expression on your little dog's face! I have the same problem as you with being awake when I am supposed to be asleep and asleep when I am supposed to be awake! Oh well, sometimes I like the middle of the night blogging or quilting. I think the kids being grown kinda leaves us with the subconcious need to be "on watch" even though the "babies" don't need us.
