Corona, Coupons, or Bust

Well, it has been a while, I admit. The dream of doing one post a week is a little harder to do than I had originally thought. There seems to be so much more that needs to go into writing these things. I still love it though. it is one of my favorite parts of the day to sit down at my computer with a big ol cup of coffee and just type away and feel like I am working on a big magazine or something. I thrive on that stuff.

Also, I do have an actual excuse for the big gap between post, I caught a nasty cold last week. On the bright side, I can breath a sigh of relief without the fear that I will infect someone, I was negative for Covid.

Life Updates

This last week has been a wild ride. I have had not one, but TWO engagements in my immediate family over the weekend. Now we get to get down to business with all the planning and the showers and the bachelorettes. I love that stuff.

My sweet little baby is doing her very best to start walking (walking!). We finally cleared out one of our spare rooms and made it a play room, and have discovered that our baby’s idea of an ideal toy is a stack of dvds on a shelf. She has moved on from only saying dada (the name of her favorite person in this whole world) and I have convinced her to finally try out mama. It sounds a lot more like buh buh, but I will take what I can get.

Work has been slowing down for my husband, so I have been trying to crack the mysterious code of couponing. I am not sure, but I’m starting to think do it all those crazy bargain shopper people are just making stuff up. It seems like no matter how hard I try, the more money I end up spending.

Art…………Update?

As for an art update…haha. It would seem that while I was confined to my bed last week that would have been a good opportunity to get some serious practice in. It would seem that way, wouldn’t it? I think maybe I doodled….one thing. Oh well. Even though my cold didn’t wind up being Covid, it was a nasty one for sure. During most of it I just kinda….stared at the ceiling for hours on end.

I do have the goal of getting some pretty abstract florals done soon here. Never mind that it has been my goal for about three months. Rest assured, it will be happening SOON.

So there you have it. A very brief update to show that I have NOT fallen off of the planet. I’m still here, chasing my baby around on her little plastic walker, and sniffling and sketching away.

Let me know what you think
