It's 63 out now, at almost 10:30pm. Beautiful! This is so nice. Great working weather, really great sleeping weather.. After a month of heat, I think it's well earned.
Ryther came home tonight and said "The tree's on fire!" and I was like What tree? What fire? and then it dawned on me, he meant the burning maple or rather the peeling bark maple in the icon. I grabbed my camera and told him to drive down the street, I wasn't going to even take the tine to walk it. So I get here and it's already past the brilliance it was when he went by.. FML as they say. So tomorrow at 7pm I HAVE to be down there, and hopefully it won't be cloudy or anything.. Which also means I guess I cant go to art class... Oh well.. That's okay. I can miss it.
Speaking of art, I did not win any prizes for my two paintings this weekend... :( Oh well. I'm working on a painting from a photo that another artist on FB posted of her daughter... I hope she doesn't get bent that I'm painting it... I have purchased 2 of her paintings, one small one and then another one recently, so she should be nice to me.. right? A patron of the arts an all. lol
One more episode of Orange... Not sure what we are going onto next.. Falling Sky's maybe? Himself has been watching Hannibal and wants us to watch it.. He says it's good. Not sure if I'll like it. Dexter is supposed to be really good, but I have no interest in it. Saw the first episode or two and just didn't' care. I cant sympathize with a serial killer I guess.
After a month of unending funerals, I feel like I'm finally catching up a bit. Except that the crabgrass is growing in leaps and bounds, and when it gets mowed, it leaves a layer of grass over the mowed grass.... which isn't good for the grass...
My Cuz seems to have resolved her issues with schooling for her son. It's going to be a bit of a PITA at times, with a half day every week and then her new work schedule.. the one that pays her real money, has changed so she will have to fly out to get the boy then get home then go to work on some days. She is going to try to get him to take the bus at least some days... but we'll see how that goes. He's never taken the bus before, and he's the kind of kid who get stuck on something and cant let go, so he's perpetually late.
Okay, walked away from this last night and forgot to post.. so here you go.. quite unfinished.
