This is a great bag! Not as big as a book bag. Bigger than a purse and wears like a backpack. Pockets for all your stuff and sturdy! I always seem to have what I want when I carry this bag. For example - I had my sketchbook and pen while I waited in the dentist office for my Mom.

Love this bag! Not unhappy with the drawing either. LOL

The top corner of this page was an excercise in getting the right side of your brain working. Sometimes a short warm up helps me get over the "white page" thing. It certainly didn't hurt. This particular EDM Challenge was to draw something you love and I do love flowers of all kinds.

This drawing was done earlier but not posted and since I got home late tonight and had family here, I didn't have time to do anything new. The family included Mom and she brought me soup and pie. I just added had sandwiches and we had a wonderful meal. Love is good.

The Every Day Matters group really reminds me that - everyday does really matter! And what better way to celebrate that than by recording small moments of my life in a sketch. I don't do this everyday - as much as I wish I did. I finally decided that the more pressure I put on myself to do something "everyday" the more likely I am to put it off.

I am really good at procrastination - EVERYDAY! HA!

Raining. We need it - but that doesn't stop me from wanting to stick my toes in the sand!

One of the things I loved about living at the beach all those many years, was being able to sit on the beach and relax when things in life got stressful. The sound of the surf and the gulls were quieting. Looking at something at awesome as the surf rolling in tends to remind you to not sweat the small stuff and let God handle the rest.

Have a blessed day.

WOW! How can I be this frazzled and worn out. I must be way too out of shape. I think I need to drink the coffee rather than draw it! Tomorrow is staff development at school so at least I can sit some of the day and not be on my feet. The weather and my knee are giving me a fit!
