I hate waiting.
So rather than sit around a feel achey, I thought I would do some painting. These are some flowers that David got me. Aren’t they pretty?
I had the idea to make this painting a bit flatter— like a print. But it didn’t really work out. I put too much detail into the flowers and failed to decide where the light was coming from. So it looks like a description of some flowers rather than evoking how they feel. Oh well. It wouldn’t be an experiment if it worked every time.
Also, why do I feel like no baby is going to show up and I’m just going to be large and hurt-y for the foreseeable future?

Oddly enough (and maybe I shouldn’t tell you this) every one I know who had kids this year…were LATE! Hum, wonder what the statistics on this are…
Well, at least you are keeping busy. The bouquet made me think of my grandmother. Glaieuls (gladiola?) are her favorite flowers.
If it’s any consolation, I’m in this training program and I’m too exhausted at the end of the day to do any sewing. So we can virtually procrastinate together…for different reasons, of course!

The Schier lab sends you happy thoughts and warm wishes! Also, those are some sweet sewing project you’ve got going on.

Hang in there. The waiting is hard and then it’s over.
