Nov 24 - 30 Art

I wasn't planning to shop of Black Friday, but because I broke my reading glasses I was forced to go out and buy some replacement glasses.

I had a 24 hour bug of some sort, felt poorly all day.

Still can't match the delicate peach color of this rose, but this will probably be the last rose for this bush.  My red and yellow rose bushes still have lots of buds on them.

So pleased to see a fat sassy cardinal (and his brown lady cardinal mate) in our crepe myrtle today.

Tomorrow begins December..... WOW!

Book 47 - Title page and Cover

I don't usually decorate my journal covers, but this navy blue Pentalic Watercolor Journal along with some new POSCA acrylic pens just begged me to do something.

Inside cover page, also used some more of the POSCA pens, along with my multi-colored colored pencil.  Just some fun doodles.

Can't believe I'm still awake, ate WAY to much turkey and dressing and cranberry sauce and wine.  Dinner at Anthony and Cathline's house with Sue, Sam and John, and Anthony's friend Jim,  family and friends giving thanks for all our blessings.

First 3 days of retirement, not getting as much done as I'd hoped, with doctor appointments and trips to the Naval hospital eating up half my day today.  Sleeping late, well as late as the dogs will allow has been nice, and  some time to catch up on my stack of books I'm reading and getting some work done on a sweater I'm knitting between, loads of laundry... well I guess I'll settle into a routine soon enough.
