'Afternoon delight... yeah right.'
First some art-related news... Finished coloring the 'Kneeling Fairy', and I drew another one. :P Gotta love the fairy's.
Kneeling Fairy
Lazy Day's
I'm so loving my colored pencils... :3
So... My sister had a delayed birthday party yesterday. My grandparents and two uncles and aunts came by. My uncle Peter and aunt Monique had left their children at home, but my uncle Stan and aunt Yvonne had brought theirs. Well... they can't leave them at home, they're to young. But god... I was exhausted when they left. I've got so much respect for my uncle and aunt for having to deal with them day in and out. The oldest, Dennis, is lightly autistic. He reacts to things differently, and always wants to know every detail. The youngest, Mark... I'm not sure what's wrong with him. I believe he suffers from child depression, and his reactions are in the extreme. If something's going on that he doesn't like, he'll scream, or hit. And together... well, it's not fun. They can't seem to be in a room together and not fight at least once.
And it's really sad, cause they probably can't help it. My grandma reacts mostly with 'They should bang their heads together', but that would probably make it worse.
Anyway... when they're calm they're really sweet, and I spent some time coloring with Mark. My hands are covered with all sorts of colored stripes from the markers we used... >__>;;
It was fun. My uncle Peter mostly acts like some big kid, and it amuses me greatly. He's the youngest from 8 children (my mom's brother) so that could have something to do with it. :P
And some sad news... We found one of our female rats (Amber) dead in her cage today. We really didn't expect that, cause she was all jumpy and full of life yesterday...
