Soup and Lime milkshakes

This is the plan for Sunday with my boy http://www.amonline.net.au/dinosaur-unearthed We missed our holiday date this year and since he has loved Dino’s since a young boy, this will be our date. Hopefully mum will be able to join us. Hopefully I can convince Josh for a quick stop in tapestry craft!&!
As for my date, he at the fruit shop today has decided that now, is the right time for soup, the fact its as hot as heck has not put him off in the slightest. So soup mix is soaking and tomorrow I get to try and find ham bones.

Speaking of things that go in your mouth. My wonderful sister in law Meagan ( not to be confused with my sister Megan, and actually just to get more confusing my sister in law also has a son called Joshua) got her sister who owns a restaurant to order me in some lime milkshake stuff! I’m in heaven. This is my all time favourite drink in the world, and I can not wait to get some milk and ice cream tomorrow!

 I had my art class again today ( yes actually got to go for more then half an hour – Tyler is on the mend! ) and I gotta say I’m quiet impressed with myself. I did a realistic looking vein! and my blending light medium and dark as he keeps repeating is a million times better. I have some homework so hoping to find some child free time!

Crafting wise have been doing some knitting, and some embroidery form the prize I won in handmade. But other then that its just writing homework and drawing.

1 small step

I started my Creative Writing course today. I loved every second of it. It was just what I needed. We did some writing exercises in class, and I have some homework. I definitely needed this for my self.

We did a exercise and I actually started crying while reading it out – actually Im a bit embaressed about that. I think it will be good for me though.
I hope the art class will be just as good.
Do you want to hear something naughty?
I drew on the walls. My bedroom wall was just staring at me, so with some of my chalks I drew. (I didnt mind if it didnt come off properly ( for those not in the know we brought our very first house last nov) cause its still to painted.) It did and I will draw on my bedroom walls again.
Joshua asked if he could draw on his walls, so I agreed as long as Tyler wasnt around, as we have just had discussions about that – though it was in my hallway with permanent marker. Joshua has my mothers genes. He is pure artist. He is most happyiest when drawing, and his amazing imagination lets him be so creative. He is 9 in may, I really hope he can hold on to his imagination as he grows.

Art by Karen Coull

Karen Coull is my mother.
Some of her work is showing in blacktown regional gallery so if in any one is in the area drop by. I had both boys with me so wasnt able to look around, but was glad these peices she did when I was in high school, and I can remeber helping pick a million thorns for the peices!
A disclaimer though, it is a official event of the marti gra showing called Bent Western and graphic adult images appear in the work around my mothers, though not in Her work.

This is the show

and these are the peices, well one of them anyway – there is also a broom and a scrubbing brush. ( those briefcases next to them are all made out of bus/fairy or train tickets and she sewed the lot – on of her latest peices.)
