New Work

I'm really tired. I've been busy for so long without really filling the well. I went to gym this morning and then took cd of images of all my work for the exhibition to the gallery (deadline was today) and then I sat and watched dvd's all afternoon. Just doing nothing, thinking of nothing, sitting and watching mindlessly. I will feel more energetic tomorrow. I just needed some down time. I desperately need to do some household chores. I've got behind and the place is a real mess. I need to dust and vacuum and wash floors. I need to tend to my garden and I need to do some laundry. But as Scarlett O'Hara would say ... I'll think about it tomorrow when I can stand it. After all tomorrow is another day.

Oh Uta,
Or as Rhett said "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a *#@%$@ about cleaning.
Relax today and unwind. I am full now from eating an onion, sipping a cup of tea and eating one of those scrumptious bars in the bowl. They look so real, I just had to reach into my computer screen for a sample!
Love the backgrounds, esp. around the teacup. So dainty letting the main subject jump. Thank you for taking the time to post them, now take a nanna nap, you southern Australian belle you.
