Suds, Rain, 3DP, Watercolor, Radiator REPLACED, Doodlewash, Wire - Sunday
Of course the slide back to shitty sleep is happening as the suds is slowly getting diluted and washed out of my system. Why must I be sick to get an 8 hour night of sleep? Quickly back to the 6-ish hours or less range.
The rain was inbound yesterday morning early and it hit by about 6:30am.
The printer was going early with a couple color swatch templates.
8am @stryeyz and the boys left to go skiing at http://www.ski49n.com where it was still managing to snow on most of the mountain.
8:30 it was straight DUMPING rain on the farm. Any and all snow on the farm had just hours to remain before it had melted away. My clothes went in the wash since I have been sweating and freezing and my robe was in dire need.
New lid for my palette that is not embossed since the embossing removes the water tightness of the lid...
Watched Man Utd shit the bed against Leeds, of course. AND AMORIN IS SACKED!!!!!!!! I have had a strong dislike for him since first taking over so hopefully ownership pulls their heads out of their golden assholes and finally get a good manager.
I have been reading a bunch about art and saw a woman who uses a sketchbook like the pones I have for her watercoloring. I pulled out my book which was unused and gave it a try. I have printed myself out thin sheets that fit the page exactly and I clip to the underside as a block against seepage and to keep the paper from wrinkling too much.
My task for the day was to get the sled going again and install the new radiator The rain finally stopped about 10:30 and I headed out to get it done.
A bit more clear headed this time and better able to see what I was doing I finally ot the stupid fan wires disconnected and once that was done the install went rather smoothly. I am pretty sure the radiator was a major problem since filling the old one was SUPER fast which meant air was getting in places. The new one took forever to fill which meant no air getting in the middle of the system, only through the cap opening. I will know better if it is fixed after a couple days of driving it this week.
For my watercolor I printed out a page quadrant stencil template to cut he pages to 4 to make them a bit less onerous feeling right now.
The site Doodlewash has a daily prompt each month and I gave it a go to catch up. Parade is a cloud street, parade of clouds. Cream puff looks a bit burger like, the wolf I am surprised at as I have never been able to draw figures of any kind so to paint one is nifty, and the bubblegum I went for a piece of Bubble Yum or Bubblicious.
Grilled bison steaks for dinner for the last day of the winter break. The evening had me rolling through fits of cold and sweats for a while but I managed a bit of time at the board where I am finding my throw is dialing in nicely. I wired this 140 and so close to the 180.
Worthless sleep this moroning as I was up at 3am on the couch thanks to this ick still. I am 1 qt of tea down and going for my second already before 5am. I will get the boys to school, test the sled a bit, try and get this shit to exit my system in a more expedient manner, paint, keep the printer going, and come up with something for dinner tonight as @stryeyz has an after work appt.
