so i finally read the watercolors for beginners book
which really i am not a total beginner because i have painted before with both watercolors and acrylics
and i pretty much am not going to follow anything in the book
my paintings in my head are much more abstract than the examples in the book
so when i get around to it, i will just paint what comes to me
and when i get sick of it, i will put it down.

still trying to be creative with food too. made a dinner tonight that would have been much better if the cut of meat was better .... but still it looked pretty and burt liked it... so i guess it was a win.

kim and bruce came for a visit yesterday and it was so nice
i freaked out until they were there and once they were i was fine
i am always like that when people are coming over.

i took a nap today, what a time sucker that was.... like two hours ... gone....
but it was a nice weekend none the less and it is only 9 so i still have a little more awake time today.

it has cooled off the last few days so we are able to keep the windows open and ac off... such a treat
i love the sounds outside
the crickets in the evening and the birds in the day time.
and the breeze when there is one is heavenly.
