On a roll. . . .

. . . .not my drawings, but for my blogging three days in a row.  I can't tell you how much I do not enjoy blogging.  I guess it's because it actually involves me sitting at the computer . . .and typing.  Don't get me wrong, I'm NEVER at a loss for words.  Trust me!  Anyone who has ever met me, or talked to me on the phone, certainly knows that.  I have people tell me ALL the time.  . . .'take a breath'!  LOL  Oh well.  I guess that's just the way the good Lord made me.  You know, he doesn't make mistakes.  <wink>

Does anyone hate cold weather as much as I do?  I'm SO ready for spring.  It was suppose to warm today here in Virginia, but it didn't quite make it.  I was so disappointed!  They say it's suppose to be in the 60's and 70's by the weekend.  Let's hope that they get that forecast right.  I see the top coming down on the Mini if it does.  May even take Bella out for a right in the country.  (Just had another idea for a sketch.  Can ya guess what it is?)

Well, as you can see by what I was journaling yesterday, I was certainly thinking about spring. It can't come soon enough for me.  Well, the temperatures, at least.
The sweet sound of the birds and the blooming of new flowers.  I think spring is probably my favorite season, because of all the 'newness' that it brings.  And can I just tell you, that even though I have allergies, there is nothing like the smell of a freshly mowed lawn.  I just love it.

I know that I am only on day three of my journaling, but I am really enjoying it.  I have found in just three days of sketching that I come up with more ideas while aimlessly doodling.  The problem is deciding which image to complete and put in the shop first. Decisions, decisions.
Question. I know that these images are very similar, but would you like to see both of them in the shop?  I can't decide.  I tried to put a little saying with them as well, to kind of set the mood while I sketched.



Well, I don't want to take up too much of your time.  I've already said to much.  Imagine that.
I did want to tell you though, if you haven't been to the shop since yesterday morning, one of the journal entry sketches is now in the shop. A No. 2 Pencil and a Dream.
Which image do you think will hit the shop next?  I bet you can't guess!

Well, until tomorrow. . . . . .
Happy CREATING!

And as always, feel free to leave me suggestions or drop me an email.  I'd love to hear your ideas.

  2. Hello for the last time today! :<)

    We have sunshine here and weather in the high 40's in this part of WI - my kind of winter! I would send you some if I could! Love the sweet images - what if you had the bird on a branch to her high left and she is looking up at him and listening to him singing? :<) Take care and have a wonderful day!

    Hugs,

  7. I feel the same way about blogging, and you know I can hold my own with you on the talking. I think it's that we feel if we're actually writing something for many others to read, it ought to be profound. I couldn't pick, but either one works great.
