dyk my inspiration -- this will translate well to watercolor -- especially since I am loving doing the saran wrap -- see those reflections? I can use the saran wrap a little differently to do that

dyk ugh she got ahold of him, he claimed to not realize about daylight savings but he's STILL an hour from home when it's 20 minutes past when he "though" he was supposed to be home with the kids

dyk so now my friend is driving up there to get her daughter then back down then to meet me -- so instead of leaving at 11am (me), I will prob leave more like at 1pm and get back with her at 7pm -- the ABSOLUTE WORST time of DAY for us

dyk not that THAT matters since Abi didn't go to bed/sleep until 4am -- which was with daylight savings time -- technically 5am.

dyk so Deklan did a little painting this weekend......

dyk two painting sessions and poof -- masterpiece.

dyk that kid kills me -- how does his matter of fact, rules and logic translate to a total masterpiece?

dyk I helped him, instructing on mixing his paints and using the water, etc, but I only touched

dyk, I've been productive today

dyk, cleaned out my closets, which took at first 2 hours and then decided to tackle my dresser which took another 1 1/2 hours

dyk, I have 3 big bags of clothes to donate

dyk, I also found several random socks that somehow ended up between the wall and the bookcase turned table/head board

dyk, I flipped my matters and put on new sheets

dyk, rearranged the bookcase in my livingroom

dyk, put all of my cookbooks back where they belong

dyk, sorted my dirty clothes into lights & darks...usually I sort my clothes into work (dark & once every 2 weeks a load of lights) and gym (light & dark mixed)

dyk, I thought about taking the trash out, but that can wait until the morning...I don't feel like putting on shoes

dyk, oh, and I went out for breakfast with the trainer this morning

dyk, I ate (& kept down!) a high calorie breakfast of an apple Brie omelette and toast

dyk, we also got an order of sweet potato pancakes because I've never had them. They were...interesting.

dyk, I felt pretty sick for awhile afterwards...to much heavy food.

dyk, breakfast was in a bookstore

dyk, tridentbookscafe.com

Dyk we're staying with the boys I used to nanny until Tuesday.

Dyk I started watching them when I was in college. They were 15 months and 5.

Dyk they are now 11 and 15. Crazy!!!

Dyk their parents went to LA for the hunger games premier.
