Some fun holiday digital paintings! Working digitally this month to give myself a break.

After like 3 weeks of being a Glasses Girl, I finally got replacement contacts, and wow it’s an adjustment.

It’s so frustrating - as someone who went through a sudden and extreme bout of insomnia 3 years ago - to see threads from people who are suffering and read all the things people are recommending. Magnesium. Valerian root. Are you staying active? Getting outside? What’s your caffeine intake? 😖

Why did I let my teen talk me into doing a face mask with her at 11pm

(Because I’ll do almost anything they ask to do with me!)

My family went to see the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie and it gave me just enough time to do this little painting.

Quote post this with a foolish injury:

Getting a drunk piggy back ride from a friend in the dorm hallway, he starts spinning and we both hit the wall and then the floor. Metal clip in my hair (it was the 90s, y’all) cut a gash in my head and I had to go of the ER for staples.

Drunk on holiday and shaving my head I knocked the hairdryer off the side into the sink I was using and instinctively went to pick it up and was immediately dropped onto my arse and blew the electrics for the block

In the late 90s I got my lip pierced while it was still an outlandish thing to do in a small market town a few weeks later I got punched in the mouth and had to go to A&E to have the ring removed as my lip had swollen up around it

As a person who works in comms, I am baffled by people who don’t just…say what they mean. Not people who beat around the bush. I mean using cryptic phrases like “jam on some followups” or “calendar rollups.” I’m not shy about asking for clarification, but just say what you mean the 1st time

This cutie found a new home on Saturday! I hope it brings the new owner joy.

I have to say, my ability to buckle down and get shit done when I’m wildly unprepared for something - say, an art market I’m participating in tomorrow - is pretty astounding. I’m in a much better place than I was an hour ago.

So my teens have been using the phrase “out of pocket” wrongly to mean random or wild, and I keep correcting them, BUT then I heard a 20-something coworker use it the same way today, and apparently it really is something the youths are saying.

I just realized that one reason my husband thinks I have no sense of direction is because when gesturing in the direction of something, he gestures in the actual direction, and I gesture according to the little invisible map in front of me.

Search your camera roll for art.

One of my now-teen’s first of many Sonic the Hedgehog drawings. It was an obsession for quite a while.

Just a picture of my dog after he literally walked up onto the coffee table. And then the result after I shooed him off.
