Life throws you a low, slow ball that you swing and miss about fifty times before it crosses the plate. *sigh*

 The baby has come down with a severe case of bronchiolitis. Similar to bronchitis but more severe. We ended up taking her in to the E.R. last night and having her airways suctioned out. I think I got all of 3 hours of sleep. Add to that equation that school is out for the summer. Ah, the dulcet tones of children fighting, screaming, coughing, and crying! If I'm dressed before 10:30 in the morning, a miracle has occurred.

I have all of my reference pics set aside and have already picked my next picture to work on. I just need everyone else to:
a) Play Nicely
b) Stop getting sick
c) Stop needing trips to the E.R.
d) Let me focus and draw

Dang it! I was really looking forward to this next pic too! CURSE YOU! I'm going to keep trying to make time, but right now, sleep is higher on my list of priorities. Yawn

Poor Bear.
Sometimes it seems like Life deliberately makes you strike out.  And the umpire doesn't always seem to call fair. :(
I guess you just keep getting up and going to bat for as long as you can.   Win some, lose some, it's the rule of Life. :)
