The Heat is On.....

And on, and on, and on......it is too hot for humans. Everyone is miserable this summer. I just paid the biggest electric bill I have ever paid since I have owned this house. Oh well..... I honestly think we are getting paybacks because last summer was so cool and nice. My grass is dead, the plants that were soooo pretty in front have succumbed, and the weeds have taken over. But I am not getting out there in this heat and pulling weeds nor am I paying for the water to keep the plants...I can replant cheaper than I can water. I sound like Scrooge.

I had a TA-DA day the other day! I got the drawings done for my multi-canvas painting that has been swimming around in my head for months! Now I just have to get brave enough to get the drawings transferred to the canvases. It will be 3 canvases, each 30" x 40". They are to go on my big "Hershey bar wall" in the family room. That wall is exactly the color of melted milk chocolate...yummmm. Anyway...I haven't put up any art work in the house since the remodel and I have had a new easel, the canvases, new water soluble oil paints, and new brushes for months. I finally got the bug. This is the first large canvas project and the first multi canvas project. I hope I don't screw it up.

I have to go to work for a couple hours this morning to catch up on some stuff while it is quiet in there. Then I have to go back to Sam's and pick up the peanut butter I forgot yesterday...jeez.
Then I come home to do laundry, clean house, etc. And tomorrow I may spend the day putting something on those canvases. I had Friday off and I have Monday off. Made myself a long weekend.

We'll see.....
