My weekend

My weekend.

I spent the weekend recovering from my flu and vomiting.  After going to my little brothers soccer practice I spent the rest of the day slopping around doing nothing and watching T.V. The next day I decided that I should make a drawing bentch which has the front up so that you don't have to bend over when drawing. Dad said he'd help me and we got to work. When we were finished it looked pretty cool. I put on the undercoat with a paint brush. now all I have to do is put blue paint on it and im done.
