I ache all over.

Started on my oil painting today. I was going to paint it exactly like the photo I had taken, but once I touched the brush to the canvas I went, "Eh, don't want to do that anymore," and just made the background a multitude of greens, yellows, and blues. Tomorrow I'll touch up on the portions that need work and start on the blossoms. I should note that I made the background semi-muted so that the flowers would pop out more (they're orange).

At the moment my back hurts and my legs are sore. I feel like such an old woman. This comes from a combination of doing household chores and attempting to get back into light exercise (which I haven't done in about 4 years. You know you have no stamina when you get winded walking around the mall trying to find a certain store.)

The smell of spaghetti beckons to me. Now I shall make a quest to the kitchen for some wonderful nourishment.

EDIT:Apparently my nose was playing tricks on me, we were not having spaghetti, but porkchops, macaroni, and cheesy potatoes. I then proceeded to make my mom think I'm going crazy since everytime I would try to say "porkchop" or "macaroni" my mouth would substitute it with "spaghetti". BAH! I have spaghetti on the brain!!
