We’re dogsitting for my in-laws, this is their baby Muffin. I got the girls ready for bed tonight and Muffers stood in line for her pajamas, so being the spoiled little fluffball that she is, she got her pajamas. LOL

(I failed to take appropriate heed to Grandpa’s warning that Muffers enjoys eating undergarments. How was I to know she would rifle through my stack of laundry?? It’s not like I leave them strewn about the house. First, iew. Second, don’t wake me up at 3AM because you’re gagging on things you shouldn’t be chewing on. Third, iew again.)

I’ve just taken a speed-reader’s glimpse at the latest NewsMax headlines, which promotes Blaylock’s Wellness Report and offer a discounted subscription to monthly reports written by Dr. Blaylock.

It’s all about health. Wellness, obviously. The things I’ve always wondered about when I go for annual checkups, the things I question when the doc asks if I’m ready yet to vaccinate the veins out of my 3-year-old, he covers everything. What is an annual physical anyway? What do they look for? Apparently not the right stuff, as the “tests” are all standardized and not meant to target specific things. I started thinking about all of this when I went in for my physical last year and had to ask for a mammogram referral. I told my doctor I was surprised that it’s not required for all fully developed women, since breast cancer can hit any woman at any age. (Just read his report indicates they can increase your risk. hm.)

We’re very fortunate to have an amazing physician. He supports and respects my routine of asking a thousand questions, and choosing what courses of treatment are best for me and our kids.

I’ll omit further jabber on the topic, I just wanted to share the report with you as I feel it has some pertinent and very valuable information!

🙂

Here we go! I went ahead and sketched out 8 of the 11 paintings I’ll be working on over the next few weeks. I am still waiting on a few things for the other three, so I’ll get those up as soon as I get what I’m waiting for.

Since there are so many, and one of them is a PG-13 Pose (yes, it is an animal!), I’m going to “hide” them.

Just read on to see the eye candies!

Here’s the final scan & eye close-ups on Luke & Ella’s portrait.

I’m going to be pretty busy today, so I’m not sure when I’ll be postin’ those sketches for you of my next portraits. Stop back again later tonight!

It’s finally done! I am going to go to bed at a decent hour tonight, so I’ll get the sketch(es) up tomorrow of my next piece(s)!!! Oh yea, I’ll scan this one too – both of their eyes turned out amazing, and you can’t see it here in this pic. Foo! You’ll see tomorrow.
🙂

I’ve turned on my new fancy-schmancy webcam, and I’ll be finishing up Luke & Ella today if ya wanna watch!

I’ll sketch out my next piece after this one is finished, so you’ll see that one up here tonight, too.

I’m going to add a few more details to Luke today (just a few I swear, that boy has been getting ALL of my attention!), and then on to Ella. See the difference in the digital pics in daylight vs. my nighttime “daylight” lamps? Wierd, huh?

Hey and how cool is this? I was just looking at my referrers, this one is cool! Search results for “Leanne” on MSN!

It’s late, and I’ve been instructed to “Git”, so I’ll take a picture in the morning. Oh, wait. It is morning. Ok. Well. I’ll take a picture in a few hours then. heh!

My good friend Erikie posted a clip of her beauty-full self in her blog the other day, and I instantly suffered from webcam envy. Her webcam is crystal clear, OH so detailed, and I WANT THAT WEBCAM!

So being the ostentatious (and cheap) kinda gal that I am, I bought it. And they shipped it the very next day. FedEx. And it’s “out for delivery”!!! YAHOO! Now I’m not sure what time it will arrive, but you can bet your bootie that as soon as it arrives I will be giddy and drunk with excitement as I rip open the package and install it in my studio!

If you’ve ever watched me painting on webcam, just you wait. My current cam is blurry and blechy and if I had only known that better cam could be had, I would have been all over it.

I’m good enough, I’m pretty enough, and daggone it, people want to watch me paint!
