Lonesome

John started night shift at work this week, and I am lonely and, tonight, I'm in a bad mood. I was going to go to bed early after letting the dogs in, pop in a movie, and do some drawing until I felt tired. I still might. Maybe it's because I'm already tired and trying to adjust to the new schedule that I feel like crying. Is it logical for me to miss my husband when he's only at work? I didn't miss him like this when he was working days. I missed him, sure. But it's different now.

Quick Post

We had to go to storage today and look for an item...an X-Box power cord (we couldn't find it). John and I came across some more of my art supplies, which he insisted we bring back to my parents house (I'm not fighting it). I was supposed to move my makeshift studio from the laundry room/office to the spare room today, but we stopped by Kitty's house...and that was the end of those plans. It's just too easy to get caught up in talking with her :-) It's good to know we have good friends. The move will be made tomorrow.

Plans changed the other night, and we didn't go downtown like I thought we would, but we still (as always) had a blast with Gene and Charissa. Pics will be posted, most likely, tomorrow.

My husband has started a blog... http://shipyardmechanic.blogspot.com/

Goodnight!!!

Good Times, Good Times!!!

Partially into a piece of work today when, *SMACK*, I don't know which way to go with it. I don't want to repeat the same themes I've used in work before; I want to branch out. How incredibly frustrating.

So I ventured into the back yard with the camera, hoping for some inspiration.

                                                          Cuteness...Misty and Dusty :-)

I would like to paint pet portraits...in the future. I guess today is just one of those days where I'll have to walk away and hope an idea forms.

Maybe taking a break will help. John and I are delivering two paintings to the best customer in the world, Kitty (who was also John's "best man" at our wedding, and whose daughter "Bubble Pixie" was my flower girl), and then we're going out to dinner tonight with two of our best friends, Gene and Charissa. Charissa is like my little sister...we ALWAYS have a good time when we get together! And I LOVE going to downtown Charleston! You can be sure my camera will be going with me...as Cha-cha and I say, "Good times, good times!!!"
