this is a 'break' in the weather?

someone tell my sweat glands that please??
i am sitting here dripping like crazy
i just got in from ducks and laundry
towels now weigh 500 pounds each dry! imagine my surprise! i didn't get that memo
of the 7 towels i had out there, i got three in and almost left the rest!
i soldiered on however and all of them are in the house
i put the ac on (bernie put the one in the bedroom in last night) and i am sitting here waiting for the dripping to stop.
now off and on today i will be knitting on liliiflora, which i am doing in archangel....my archangel is more deep halloweeny fallish in color then some of the other archangel i've seen
which i have decided i really like!
(maybe it is because i am so hot and sweaty that i am already longing for fall?)
*** yes susan i know, i need to find a new doctor***
the other thing i will be doing today is some work on a new drawing of the ducks when they were babies.... there is amelia on the left preaching to what looks like poindexter (the one almost hidden-he always had a different slope to his beak) and possible malcom in the front
i am planning on doing it in black and white, this way....
then 'adjust' it and do another black and white and finally i am thinking of a few color studies...... we'll see
i love how the crack in the photo looks like 'a line in the sand'
jen took these pictures last summer.
i took a lot too but didn't have the time to really sit and draw them as i was too busy RAISING them (spoiled little buggers that they are)

that is pretty much my day i think today....oh and of course dishes..never ending freeken dishes
but at least that means we are eating huh?
ok
i'll let you all know how the knitting and the drawing goes
right now i am going to finish my coffee and see if i can get over to the new easel to draw

til next time
