Grr
Things were going so well; Tim has gotten into 2 law schools so far, which is awesome, especially since one of them is one of our top choices. I was happily sketching away, and now have 3 completed new fairy sketches ready to be painted.
But now our bunny hasn't been eating normally for about two weeks, and when we pet him we can feel all the weight he's lost. We're taking him to the vet again on Saturday, but it looks like we may have to put him down. He went through this thing two months ago, though that time it only lasted a week. We think he may have some sort of genetic defect, and that this will keep happening. It's incredibly sad and frustrating, especially since he's only a year old... and Tim and I have had him since he was a wee six week old baby. I cry when I look at him and think these things, but unless there's a complete turnaround, it is not boding well.
Tim and I were planning a day trip to Oregon to check out the schools since we have to go up north anyway, but it turns out it would be really expensive since we have to fly from down here, so basically we're going to have to move to an area we've never seen before in our lives, and will have to stay there for at least two years. If I have to do that anywhere, it would be Oregon, so that's good anyway...
And I've been experimenting with my watercolors, but it's sucking. I don't have the right kind of watercolor paper, which they say makes all the difference. I was going to order it from Dick Blick, but it wouldn't get here until the end of next week when we're gone, so I was thinking I'd get it at their store in San Diego when we do our day trip there this weekend, but if we're doing bunny stuff we may not go to SD, and then I still have no good paper. The reason I want it from this place and not Michaels... well they don't sell the one I want exactly at Michael's anyway, but the the one they have is $45, compared to Dick Blick's $19!!! So I can't paint any of these sketches til I get good paper, and I can't do art with my tablet since my wrist is all messed up, so basically, I'll have no art to show for weeks still. Grr.
And certain people don't make things any easier by disagreeing with everything I do and think, because that just stresses me out more. Can it be mid-August yet???
