A Diamond in the Rough
She really did a good job! This was Neil in his
Halloween Costume, he was about 9 months old in the
picture. So - if any of you want a really
professional and talented artist to draw you or your
little one (or anything - I've seen her do portraits
of dogs and stuff too) find her through her personal livejournal, or her
community on livejournal. She's
on myspace too. She's uber affordable, portraits
starting at only $10! I'm trying to get her to
open up a shop on Etsy, but she's holding out for
now, but she'll probably be there eventually too.
In other news, things are going pretty well. I've
been working out at the gym nearly every day. I've
lost some weight, gained some muscle - lost a
collective 8.75" from all around - that was about a
week and a half ago, so it's probably even more lost
by now 
I'm really enjoying the gym, it's
good to go clear my head after a long day of
being with a toddler hehe. My little cousin is
going off to college, and I painted something
just for her for her new dorm room - I'll post
pics after I give it to her, incase she sees
this, I don't want to ruin it
Well, it's Friday night, Sean will be home soon -
it's been raining all day which is a welcomed thing
at this point, seeing as the days prior were sooo hot
and humid - I think it was 104* on Wed, with 90%
humidity. We went swimming at my parents house, they
have a salt water pool - Neil loved it, he swam in
his froggy swimmy that Anya (my mother) gave him for
almost 2 hours! Kickin his little legs and splashing
his hands - he's a total water rat! We're going down
tomorrow, I'll try to get pics if we're swimming this
time.
Take care - and support the arts!
