I cant wait for summer

Here in Oregon, it has been raining for weeks, and weeks, and weeks, it is hard to get motivated, but I think about what i am going to make next, like every waking moment lol, my daughter loves animals, and I have indulged her, we have 3 dogs, 2 are hairless, 2 cats, one might be pregnant, four finches, and four finch eggs, if you have ever seen my work you know how much I love birds, I gather their feathers off of the floor to use in my pieces, my daughter and I eagerly await the hatching of these baby finches. I secretly hope that when a bird passes away I will be able to keep the skull and make a mold out of it, so I can reproduce their tiny skulls in my work, I just think they are sooo cute!! My husband doesn't understand the need for so many animals, "but our daughter wants to be a veterinarian "I argue, lame I know, but he just shakes his head, and lets me do what I want. I am waiting to go out into my beautiful yard, I used to go weed and stuff in the rain, but the older I get, I don't want to go out in the rain and get muddy, so I wait for sunshine.
