rings

rings Originally uploaded by fuzzydragons This was supposed to be posted yesterday, but I fell asleep :p We had our wedding rings sent away to be resized because they were way too big. Well we went to get them on Saturday and now they are too small :/ Which made me laugh :p So they are now going to be stretched to a slightly bigger size. The store where we took them was very helpful and apologetic. It happened because when we went to see what size we were it was a colder day and Saturday was quite humid so our fingers had swelled. I couldn't get my ring past my knuckle and John couldn't get his off. His finger was turning blue. Hand lotion helped pop it off. So the rings will be a bit bigger but not as big as they were originally, just enough so that when our finger do swell none of our fingers turn blue. They were so loose John lost his under the dryer. We thought the dog had eaten it or that it had fallen off while they were playing but thankfully it was found undigeste...

And they are not even My Cats

So my little furry friends were outside in the rain. I had to go and play with them :p After I got covered in wet cat hair and head butted by both my little black friend and the grey tabby, the tabby decided to climb up the trees. (she has only recently let me pet her and its only when my little black friend comes to me that the tabby will come. The black cat is named Shadow but I can't remember the tabbies name. Shadow gets so relaxed when I am petting her on my lap she starts drooling :p) Can you see me? oh wait! Whats over there? Lunch! But I'm in the wrong tree. Must move. I will just hide from the rain under your skirt :) Just need to turn around. Hey! Stop laughing at me! Darn the bird flew away! Still don't know which box my little book of Scottish words is so next week I will post 3 to make up for it. And if I can't find it this week I am just going to have to ask John's Grandparents some words :D

SPT May 1,2008 Originally uploaded by fuzzydragons Nice and sunny when I took this, and about an hour later it was pouring down rain (why people say "pouring down rain" I have no idea. Why not just pouring down. What is it going to pour down Kool-Aid?) :p Dragons WIP Copyright Jennifer Rose Phillip So back to the dragons today. Finished up the blue dragon now on to the green one. I probably need to darken the values but am going to wait till the whole thing is coloured.

Over the next few days (hopefully days not weeks) I am going to be finishing my website. I need to update the art, add commission info and add links. Now this is what I need help with. I need some more links. You don't have to link back but if you want your link here and on my site just let me know :) Also if you have any interesting art or craft links those would be helpful too :D I like the how simple my site looks I just need to work on updating it and seeing if all the code works properly :) so send me your links please (preferably stuff that isn't going to send people screaming and running away lol) If you have a site banner even better :D Which reminds me I should probably update my site banners

Deuce!

Some yellow flowers from yesterday in the front yard. No idea what they are, just think they are really pretty. Ignore the dead weeds in the back, had to spray them with weed killer because nothing was killing them. Even if we thought we had dug out all of the roots they still grew back. Not the best for the ground but the weeds were killing everything else in the bed. :/ Poured down rain this morning. Monsoon like :p I'm sure the plants liked it though. John mistakenly bought squash a few weeks ago even after I told him I don't think anyone will eat squash (I can't stand the stuff). Well it is growing very very well in the greenhouse (along with a lot of other things). Which would be a bad if we ended up with tubs full of squash that no one will eat but, John didn't realize that it is ornamental only so I guess I can use it for still lifes :p And no I haven't stopped working on the dragons or the eagle, I just thought a break from coloured pencil might be good fo...

Did nothing today but plant flowers and there are only so many pictures of dirt I can post before people get really bored :p Sad but true :p (found here )

Snails!

Image
There have been a lot of snails in the yard lately. Probably due to the weather. Picked this little guy up and he went immediately right back into his shell and no matter how still I kept he wouldn't come out. I remember collecting snails with my friend when I was a kid and keeping them in a tub with plants for them to crawl over. I can pick up snails but can't pick up slugs. ugh they creep me out which is weird considering snails are just slugs with shells. Worked on the eagle some more. Added more feather which is just a lot of layers of pencil strokes over and over again. I need to add more brown to him, he looks a little too red for me. And a grey scale so people can see where I need to darken the values. Mostly darken the picture around the back of his head and his neck area. Suggestions for a title anyone?
