Not in the mood

I, like most people, live a very busy life.  And sometimes when I have down time that I can use for something fun like playing in the studio, I don't want to.  I'm tired.  I'm cranky.  I'm not motivated.  I'm tired.  Did I mention that I'm tired?  These days really stink because I don't have a lot of time to play (too many other things I need to do like work...work sure gets in the way of having fun sometimes :-) ).

This is where I am today...tired, a bit cranky, and not motivated to do anything but sit on the couch and veg until tomorrow.  Yuck.

So, I haven't done much in the studio this weekend.  I did put another coat of red paint on the edge of my study in texture piece, so that's good.  I did start to work on the piece of copper I have to do some faux etching on:

I cut the edges and bent them up a bit and then used a hammer and a screwdriver (slotted) to make the dimples you see above.  I am going to etch the following stamp on the copper:

I hope to do this sometime this week.  I'll let you know if I get there.  :-)

So for now, I think I'll end for the day.  Perhaps I'll mosey over to the couch and lay there until tomorrow.  :-)

Until next time, may you have more motivation than I do today!
