I try to get out early before the sun gets too hot.
Watering to be done and plants need to be cut back and weeded daily.
We had someone come today to take a look at our chimney (it needs repointed and a cap.) He made me feel like all the hard work was worth it. He kept commenting on the gardens and landscaping.
I found this rock from the wall on the right now who or what do you think did that?
My neighbor loaned me a book about watercolor painting.
One quote I read was "You have got to ruin a lot of paper"
So, I am back to painting I hope daily.
It is still so horribly hot, and I am not happy about it either.
Trying not just have ice cream for dinner and calling it good.
So, I have diet root beer with a about a tablespoon of heavy cream in it. It tastes a lot like a root beer float. Is it the same? Nope but it is a good refresher. I very rarely drink soda, so it is a treat.
One of the ideas with the rubber stamps is I made my own ribbon.
I just ripped a long piece of fabric any size you want and stamped it.
I am using colored pencils to color them in.

Like I said before we are so freaking hot!!! I am so over it!!
It is supposed to break tomorrow night hopefully.
Speaking of tomorrow I am meeting my daughter and sweet B for a pedicure, dinner and a play. I am so looking forward to that. Any time with my girls is perfect.
Have a great rest of your week and stay cool.

Pretty hot and humid in Ohio and our rain pretty much fizzled today. We need a good soaking. I hate brown grass!
Fun stamping project.
Be sure to share your watercolor pieces. Great quote!

I'm impressed at what you're getting done in this heat. I try to be active with a minimum of movement!
Yes, it's hot here too, but we don't have the humidity that the East has. I love your watercolor practice. Remember, practice makes progress! Having a pedicure and going to a play with your daughter and granddaughter sounds wonderful. Hope the weather cools down for you. See you again soon!
It has been unbearably humid here too. The thunderstorms we were suppose to get yesterday only amounted to one rainstorm...and still humid. UGH Have fun with your girls! Fun stamping project too. Janice
