Where does the day go?

Another day gone and I don’t feel I have much to show for it.  I do have cupboards full of food to feed my family — why do they think they need to eat all the time???  There were some flurries while we up in Waterloo talking to our financial advisor and eating supper.  On the way to get new boots and groceries, the roads were very very slick.  Thankfully the drivers around us seemed to be taking their time and being careful.

And speaking of boots — what can I do to the boys to get their feet to stop growing?  Good grief.  When we bought shoes at the beginning of the school year, I’m pretty sure we were looking at 3s or 3.5s.  Joe’s feet measured at a 4.5 tonight.

I did get some quilting done today.  I was excited last night thinking that I only had 3 more customer quilts.  Today I cleaned out my e-mail inbox and got a phone call and between the 2 things discovered not 1, but 3!!!! quilts that I had promised to do and forgotten about.  So, the list is back up to 6.  Not all need to be done before Christmas, thankfully, but I hope I haven’t forgotten about anything else.

I also spent about an hour on the new book today.  I’m getting excited about it again — had some ideas about how to organize it, so I’ll probably try to spend more time each day on that as well.

For today’s picture, since I don’t have any artwork or quilting to share, I thought I’d bring another blast from the Christmas past — the boys posing for Christmas photos in 2002Pc060021:

Instagram post 2198318837210935461_15732201 The prompt was the free writing — I used an inktenae pencil to journal about a decision that we are trying to make, scribbled in layers and in different directions. And then I spritzed it’s with too much water, so I blotted with a paper towel. And TBH, this is exactly what the decision making process looks like. #kasiasadventcalendar #suzannesadventjournal #getmessyartjournal #suzannegetsmessy

Instagram post 2197690835112539827_15732201 This was an experiment. My eyes were closed and I slowly moved the pencil across the page while I was breathing following a pattern.(I used my other hand to feel where the edges of the page were so that I didn’t fall off, so to speak). It was interesting. I might try something like this again, but with some modifications. #kasiasadventcalendar #suzannesadventjournal

Wasn’t entirely sure what to do with it, but decided that just sticking it on the page and writing around it was enough! #kasiasadventcalendar #suzannesadventjournal

This is my reminder that a good artist never blames her tools, but it sure is nice having really great tools. (I got Pfeil palm set C, plus one extra) #carvedecember #thepainteddiaries#suzanne_365
