Happy Holidays

Christmas eve today..thats cool. I always like Christmas.
I try to remember who we are celebrating but sometimes the
present aspect of it gets in the way. At least for awhile.
Yesterday I went up to New York then shot down the turnpike
to Philadelphia before heading home. Kinda cool to see both
cities within a few hours of each other. Today Im
delivering freight to Pittsburg Pennsylvania which is a
nice haul from where I live. I will be back tomorrow
sometime. I got up early today..its about 7:30am and im
about to wrap presents, feed the cat, etc. before I
takeoff. I bought a watercolour (I see watercolor
spelled "colour" alot..dont know what the proper way is but
who cares..I get the point) field sketchbook for the trip
Im going on and also gotta dig up some archival pens to do
pen and ink. Not really buying much cuz I can get anything
I want on the ship.
Havent done much artwork this week but I have been
reading "the art spirit" by Robert Henri. One of my
favorite books.
I remember one Christmas a couple years back I had just
decorated the tree (while polishing off a six pack) and I
turned around for a moment when i realized my big fat cat
had climbed up into the center of the tree. How he got
inbetween the ornaments, lighting, and tinsel I cant figure
out but he was smack dab in the center just hanging here. I
proceeded to pull the cat when the whole tree fell and
everything went flying. The cat freaked...ran like a
jet..leaving me laughing on the floor...what a mess that
was..it was really a touching moment...lol.
gotta fly...I need some serious coffee. later.
