This Is Only A Test

Hello friends and loyal readers. Or... casual readers. Taking a break from drawing at the moment. Really kicking the Steve Stamkos portrait for my dad into high gear. Also, did a little work on the soccer home jersey. It's going be interesting. It's good to being able to put some creative energy into some art. Sometimes I feel like my days at work only destroy the already numb creative brain sells in the ol' noggin. Hence, why I need art in every way. I need to be doing something creative as often as possible. And that's a fact. Would be great if I could do it for a living. You know, actually be excited to go to work for once. Wonder what that's like. We carved pumpkins with my family over the weekend. As you can tell from the picture, Jill and myself carved Elmo and Cookie Monster. My sister with the help of Jill carved Big Bird. I'm quite happy with how they turned out.

Mia had a doc appt today. Would love to tell you what he weight/height is, but frankly, she was incredibly upset the whole time that I could barely hear the measurements. It started with the scale. She's much too big for the small one they used to be able to lay her on. I stood her up on the "big girl" one and she pretty much lost it. She used to be able to handle the head measurements and such, but she just freaked the HELL out. She's at the age where she remembered what the doctor and assistant do when we come in for the visit. Her next visit is at 2 years old, so hopefully we will be able to explain to her the situation and she'll handle it better, but it doesn't sound like it'll be that easy. Her and I kicked the ball around earlier today. Weather was perfect for some soccer. Couldn't have been better. She even did some dribbling around with her ball.

Other then that, nothing else to talk about. I defiantly would like to get the Samsung Galaxy S2. It's on sale currently online at the US Cellular site, but I need to go into the actual store to use my discount so hopefully we can work around or with the online deal for the phone. If I have to order it, then fine, I just want to get the phone and use my discount :)

That's all for now. Thanks for reading
