Sketching the night away… sorta

I had eight children in my house on Thursday… and it was insanity around here. Yet, everything managed to get done and I even made a hot dinner (and one for the freezer). It musta been the tea I drank… cuzz I drank a BUNCH of it… 6-8 cups… I can’t remember, that was yesterday.

I even got a bit of a run in… only 10 minutes but what can you expect with eight kids in the house. I was lucky with the ten minutes. For the record, I do not want Vibram Five Fingers… I tried running bare foot… yah, epic fail. My ankles are angry tonight.

So after my fabulously productive day (in which I did not write a single word in any of my MSs– I thought about it, so it counts as progress), I decided I needed to get some other creative juices flowing. The one’s I haven’t exercised in about two years (has it really been that long… Oh goodness I stink)… like… say… sketching!

But I have no idea where my sketch things are… or if I had loaned them to my children which now have grape jelly and GI JOE renditions on them. So, about 5:00 I decided I was going to head to Hobby Lobby before the night was over and get me some supplies.

Another little known fact… I love paper, pens, markers… staples, office depot… I could stay in there for hours. HOURS. To me it screams “ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES” in every way.

Ahem, so at 6:45, after I sent DH on an errand, I headed out to Hobby Lobby to grab a sketch pad and some new graphites.  Got them and turned out my first drawing at 8:45.

Here it is… It’s my rendition of ME as the twitter bird…

Now before you go all crazy… not that you would… I can’t take complete credit! I did get the idea off another picture… so it’s totally not my idea! I just used the idea and made some changes… like Eisley glasses… eyelashes… still debating on dimples.

And I decided to use it as my twitter pic…  take this as a warning But I changed it again.

Now off to mind the muse… must write a bit and get some editing done on my query. It needs to go out soon…. very soon.
