Leslie Hawes Art on Facebook

Filed under: Art, Thimk, blogging — Leslie @ 6:51 pm

Yep, you read that right… Leslie Hawes Art on Facebook.

What was I thinking?

Not only that, a second Facebook location for just goofing around…Leslie Hawes on Facebook.

I think I may be losing my mind. I think I need to re-think my thinking. This is all so redundant…redundant. Did I already say that?

I already have a blog, Leslie’s Blog.  I have an art blog, Leslie’s Art Blog.  I have another art blog, Leslie’s Drawing a Day.  I have a Flickr Photostream, which is as good as a blog, but with more pictures. And art on Fine Art America. Not to mention the dogs blog, Black Dog Diaries.

I “follow” a bunch of Blogger blogs, and have over a hundred Flickr “contacts”. I try to be a good citizen and leave comments. I try to answer my emails in a timely manner, but I know there are some of you out there saying to yourself, “yeah, right. Timely.”

So this Facebook thing… why in heaven’s name did I do that?

My next post on this blog may be to announce the timely passing of my Facebook persona. Check out any one of my blogs, that I haven’t updated in a while, to keep abreast of what I am not doing…you heard it here first…or maybe you read that on the other blog…

Whatchamacallit

“I’m going to call the new year two thousand and ten, not twenty ten,”  I said.

 That was as close as I was going to get to committing to a New Year’s resolution.

“I’m calling it twenty ten,” said my husband.

“Why? That just sounds too  unofficial ” ,  I replied.   “Saying  two thousand and something sounds  better.”

“You didn’t call all the years of the last century one thousand and nine hundred something, did you?”

Touche´.

Happy New Year, all twenty ten of  it!

Three Months

Filed under: Art, dog — Leslie @ 1:14 pm

I have made 96 drawings in a little over three months. Whew.

Life is getting in the way presently, so I am drawing as I can, which is to say, not every day.

 I hope to return to my madcap drawing as soon as possible.

Here are my excuses…

As I write this, I am waiting for a phone call from the veterinary surgeon telling me that the Deuce man is finished with his surgery and is recovering in his cage in morphine drip la-la land.

He is undergoing a knee surgery to fix a ruptured cranial cruciate ligament.

Ow.

Lots of pre-surgery diagnostic and testing visits and general business surrounding the dog has kept me in a tilted mode.

Speaking of tilted, somewhere in there I lost a few days to BPPV.

Geeez. Just when I was making a dent in the cache of colored pencils.

Well…those are my excuses. The next ones will be called “Christmas” and “New Years”…
