It’s been a while, I know. But it was the end of summer session I, and I’m exhausted. Teaching summer classes takes a lot out of me, for some reason.
Still, I have some updates.
First, photos a-plenty. I have an update of my WIPs.
Baby Blanket. Learning to work with the acrylic, and feels good to get [...]

So on Friday, we went for another date night. We saw local Philly boy, M. Night Shyamalan’s newest film, The Happening. M didn’t want to go, but oh no, I had to insist. Let’s just say that I’m in the proverbial doghouse, and I’m restricted from choosing our films for date nights for a while. [...]
