Day 230 – Taking pictures with my right hand while drawing with my left, I played a sketching game that I call “chasing the shadow.” I then created an OSnap video. Check it out above this post.

Day 242 – My 8 yr old returned home from her first solo trip away from home. So proud. And so happy to have her back. A simple hand made banner welcomes her home. “Mom, this is the first of many welcome home celebrations, because I plan on making a lot of trips.” (Taken with Instagram)

Day 223 – Created a new banner for my Etsy website. I used Gimp and Inkscape which are open source (FREE) programs for those of us without Photoshop or Illustrator. (Taken with Instagram)

Day 228 – A bit of utilitarian creativity today. My daughter loves her (cheap Target) comforter but it is too thin for cold nights. So I sewed a top sheet to the back, leaving a slot at the bottom, to make it into a duvet cover that will hold a down comforter. (Taken with Instagram)

Day 229 – My daughter and I created a happy jar to hold all of our good thoughts and memories. We collaged the top using magazine paper. When we have a bad day, we can open the jar and find some Happy! (Thanks Emma) (Taken with Instagram)

Day 234 – I sat down to make another collage late at night and just couldn’t make it happen. So I created another OSnap video of the collage pieces moving around the page and finally leaving it blank. Check it out in the post above.
