The Joy Of Good Domestic Help...

It was a happy day in the Mad William home today. The nanny's back. I had 4 1/2 hours of 'me time'. It was so exciting. Mr. Man loves her and she's great with him. Then when she's done, Mr. Man goes down for a nap, so it's really like getting 6 1/2 hours of me time. Happy happy joy joy!

She goes to college so we are without her during the school year. But school's out. Precious and I each get two days a week with the nanny. Oh the joy of good domestic help. I adore spending time with Mr. Man, but a little personal time is quite refreshing and key to my mental health.

I have been thinking about this for days. What was I going to do with my free time?
A good long nap came to mind but the thought of wasting my nanny time seemed like, well, a waste. Plenty of time to sleep when I'm dead.

Not wanting to get too carried away with myself I decided to ease into my time. Painting was a must.
This one is for a fellow blogger. "Birch No 2" 18 x 24 inches.
It's not quite right yet. Been working on it for a few weeks now. Almost ready.

This is a little 8 x 10 inch work for the gallery. All the texture you see is from 6 other paintings on this canvas. I think this one is keeper.

I started two others I am calling, "The Fog". They're paintings of...Fog. I'm still working on the BS factor for these.

Then I went to work on a special project for Mr. Man. I drew the image on the canvas about 6 months ago. It's going to hang in his room. It's 48 x 60 inches. Acrylic on canvas.

We're going on a trip in our favorite rocket ship, zooming through the sky...Little Einstein's!

A break for a little lunch. A bike ride. I got in a good hard 10 miles on my mountain bike. Wow that felt good. Now it's Mr. Man's nap time and I get to play on line with all of you. If you could see the smile on my face right now.

Defending The Undefendable…

  Ok. So, I’m not from around here. I’m really hoping that someone might explain to me, how you defend a pedophile? Just to be clear, that’s...
