Happy Birthday ME!

I had a great birthday weekend! I went out with my extended family to somewhere I would never have gone on my own and enjoyed every minute! I even managed to get "arty" with some model making (I know!) but it opened me up to some new artistic endeavours that I might persue...

I also got some great presents, art books, supplies and a few CDs I was hankering after (yes I have an Ipod... yes I download tunes.... but there is nothing like actually owning the CD!).

Have a happy day all!

When does Summer end?

...cos it seems to have ended already!

Is September 21st the equinox? I never remember! I must look it up, does it change every year? All I know is that for me Summer is well and truly OVER after the summer equinox! I know the days start getting longer after the Solstice (June 21st) but it usually stays light and bright into late September, however this year blurgh! It's cold and damp and summer has GONE!

Shame as I like to watch the washing blowing on the line and take my supplies outside for some impromptu artwork... guess that's all over for another year!
