This past weekend Chris took a picture of the supermoon the night before it got super. So I guess it was a pre-supermoon.
While he was doing that I was sketching some flowers.
Chris also went to the store, did the re-cycling, and went to the dry clearners while I was counting the tomatoes in order to calculate when we might next be able to have BLT's.
Then while I was applying the watercolor to my zinnias he made beef and broccoli for dinner.
Later on I went and took a picture of the sky and clouds and told Chris if he hurried I thought he could get my car washed and filled up with gas before it started raining again.
I also got the paper off the driveway and made coffee on Sunday morning then found time to work on the ever challenging plain white coffee cup sketch while he made breakfast.
As you can see we have a very fair division of duties at this house. I may have forgotten to mention that I washed all the dishes and spent a considerable amount of time thinking.
It's good to have a division of duties in the household. Shooting the moon and coloring in the towers trumps car washing, though.

We couldn't see the Super Duper Moon because of cloud cover...something that happens so rarely here I couldn't believe I was missing the "Moon Show" because of clouds! ACK But there is supposed to be another on Sept. 9th...so maybe I'll get a gander then.

That Chris... he's a keeper for sure!!!! I like the division of things in your household... it's the way it should be!

What pen/ink/nib combination are you using? I think you said it's a Safari? Love your flowers!

Sometimes it's good to have a reminder of what our 'lads' actually do. ;)

And that's all the reason I needed to get married - someone else to do some of the endless stuff that needs doing.
Love your zinnias. Guess I'll have to plant some of those next year.

There's so much in here that reminds of me and my better half. We are DEEP in the throes of raising three little boys under four ... And our division of labor works for us. We each think we got the better deal. #bliss

May I send my husband over to apprentice with Chris?
