I had fallen off the wagon on my daily drawing that I started a while ago, and I kept letting the blank page defeat me on the calligraphy practice I wanted to start. To this morning I got up earlyish, and did both. I think I figured out WHY I had fallen off the wagon though. When mom was here visiting, I was being good about waking up before M left for work, and that gave me quiet time that I could use for the drawing. With waking up later, I felt that I should start the work of the day, whatever that work should have been, right away. So I am attempting to make myself wake up at an early-ish time. I think I might even see if S and P are walking, and what time they are doing it, and see if I can get myself back into the swing of that. 

I did DRAGONS for the first time in a while, and I did one after SlackWyrm, by JoshuaWright.net and several after various stick figured dragons I found on the internet. I am always fascinated by what minimal features need to be included for our brains to say.. "Oh, thats an xyz" and which features are unnecessary. Also, how what is needed can change between groups of people or overtime.  I also drew some multifora roses that were blooming outside yesterday. I wonder if they will still be blooming today. And my attempt at M's and mine's heraldry. and some ivy...

M is home today, not feeling well. Now that it is 10am, I think I shall eat some of the oatmeal I made a few days ago for breakfasts this week, and thinking of what I want to accomplish today.  Here is a partial list, we will see how much happens. 

-Cut off the suckers coming out of a bunch of the trees around the lawn area, and cut out some places where the mimosas are coming back where they should not be, both on the hill and not. 

-clamber into the creaked because it is dry and toss out some rocks to add to the beds

-weed the front beds, and pull out the hosts I want to move (it is being overcrowded by some ferns)

-see if I can bring myself to plant some of the asparagus into the front beds

-sctoh gaurd the chairs

-exersise at 1pm

-see if S&P are still walking, make plans to join them next week 

-untabngle my warps and finishing dressing the loom

-pull out Juli's dress and work on that, see if she would be ok with a brief visit to check fit before continuing. Maybe work on the others that are cut out

-work on army guy mouse, unbox the cowboy mouse hat, make a teddy bear for a mouse, and some an outfit

-think about dinner...

Ok, there is no way all of that is happening, but we will see.
