Saturday

I'm finishing up next week's batch of goodies today.
Here's where they started this morning-
They're all dressed and ready for me to draw and paint their little faces, except for the clay pieces. They're in their dipped-in-chocolate phase.
Today I get to paint them up and bring them to life.
Not a bad way to spend the day

When I get to spend enough time working on Friday (my longest workday of the week), my Saturdays are lovely and leisurely, spent running small errands, doing little chores around the house, spending time with the kidlettes (when they're here, which isn't very often anymore now that they're teenagers), all while adding finishing touches. La, la, la! Happy happy, painty painty!

When I don't get to spend Friday working, it's another story altogether. A scary story in which everything takes too long, and impending deadlines lurk large and ominous just beyond the horizon. **cue threatening horror movie music**

Hope you're all having the lovely and leisurely kind of Saturday.
