Painting...
I know I haven't posted on my birthday... and I probably won't. So please don't hold your breath as I will probably lose one of the few people that reads this thing.
There is one thing I'd like to mention though. By my dad's friend, Brian (I'll be calling the village idiot*), I was given an easel. That was very nice of him... only I can't paint...
It would seem that my father had wanted to out do the village idiot by buying me all these paints and canvases....
So now I have a couple of books from the library on painting. I'm going to try because I've always wanted to know how to paint.
So I'll probably be posting on my experiments and what not.
*The reason he is the village idiot is not because of anything recent. He has always been that. A great example of that was when he told me that you could cross a river (water up to windows full river) was by taking off your fan belt. Not some people may have taken this and believed it. But if you happen to be the daughter of a full wheel drive enthusiast then you know that you NEVER take the the fan belt off your car. Not to cross a river at least. Why? It won't go anywhere...
Now he wasn't having me on. He's not that type of guy. He was just tricked himself as he is very gullible. I would call him a baby boomer but I feel he is too old for that... But he fits the term none the less. Don't get me wrong, the guy has a heart of gold just don't go to him and expect a conversation with all the facts to be right.
I know I have a tendency to be a dunce myself... but this guy... Yeah... he takes it to a whole new level.
