Where do the days go?

I've tried to write this post so many times now, but have either been interupted or too busy to think of anything to say. I've had my daughter home sick from school for most of the week with a conjested chest and a barking cough that sounds like a scabby dog. Poor little mite was really quite rough to start with, but as she got better began to drive me mad with her demands for hot drinks, cool drinks, soothing sweets, you name it she needed it.

I did take the time though to sit and knit her this scarf of such red gorgeousness, that now I want one for myself :)



Another side effect of having her home poorly has been all of the movies we've been watching. I made this little sketch during 'The Dragon Hunters' which is a little known movie of great entertainment. I love this character, although I can't remember her name (I've not watched it as many times as the children - yet!), but her funny little face amused me so much, that I needed to copy her. I'm sure she'll pop up in a painting at some time, I just need to find the right one.




After our weekends maintenance splurge, I didn't manage take any pictures of the finished rabbit hutch, as the rest of the garden looked so appalling, but when it's all finished, I'll get out there with the camera. Here are the rabbits supervising the work.



Aren't they just adorable?
