Apparently Austin's newspaper, the American Statesman, has gone on strike, at least in Fiorella's neck of the woods. Sigh...does she have to fight this battle again? Remember when her family moved in a couple of years back and she was on the phone day and night trying to get hold of a news? GRRRRRRR!
On the brighter side, Fio will probably finish off Mrs. Gustafson's picture today. It keeps getting better and better, but Fio still has to put the finishing touch on the side of her late voice teacher's nose, which will be tricky because Mrs. G is sitting at an angle and wearing glasses.
Good grief! Your girl didn't realize how many paint brushes she had collected through the years--art brushes, that is. TWENTY-FIVE, of all sizes, and a packet of five extras still in their wrapper!
If you're wondering, Fio switched from oil to acrylic (which drys faster) long ago, but she still has a full set of oil just in case. A set of colors like you see for sale in stores, though, is rarely necessary because if you already have a nice collection of basic colors--red, white, blue, yellow, black--you can mix your own colors.
In other words, art is a cheap hobby and your girl has tubes from twenty years ago in still in her plastic bags to prove it.
OOPS--THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO RUN YESTERDAY!
ALSO "OOPS" BECAUSE FIO DIDN'T ADD IN A GERMAN LESSON. How about Musik, but remember, the "U"is pronounced like a cow m--oo--ing.
