Hello and welcome here are the 10 Scribbles for the Days 60 through 70. I am now working in a watercolor sketch book but it doesn’t seem to like inks or really wet medium. It does love acrylic paints. This one is one of my favorite doodle's so to speak. If I sit somewhere I start drawing these kinda flowers. Remember the Scribbles are anything you want to do from the simplest mark or crayon slash to a quick sketch or a simple mark making. It’s all good it’s about moving ENERGY and NO MORE JUDGMENT!!
This one was an acrylic wiped paint that was extra and I can’t waste paint like leaving it in the pallet. Then I added watercolors. Posca pens for the leaves.
This one was a happy accident I spilt a whole lot of liquid watercolors that I keep referring to as
This was one of my favorites
I have been just making marks and playing it can be so addictive you just keep painting and having fun no judgment no excuses just fun
This was in our Inner Magic Art Club “spirals” was the prompt it was so much fun and relaxing.
Here again just making marks having fun
Same…
This one was feelings missing my grandchildren and the scribbles was their artwork I put into the background. Like a boarded up window. With lilac background. It was so fun and relaxing it has a bit of new look as the “ink” leaked on it.
Hello and welcome if you are new this blog is about my life and my family, my art and living experiences on a very small shall I say very very small income. 10% of the poverty level. You might see these pictures and think a vacation what??? Well my family (Kim and Jr) have made this trip possible. Amongst others as well. Like the tripe to San Diego made possible by five of my (our) children. http://creationsbydawn.blogspot.com/2026/01/january-20-2026-recap-on-san-diego.html
If it wasn’t for them we wouldn’t be able to enjoy these moments in time with our grandchildren and children as much. Most of my blog is picture based as I have had a love of photography my whole life. I had Polaroids and 110s early in my life. At one time I had a huge collection of cameras and had to sell them off for money. I also sold most of my antiques as well at the time.
The line getting into Canada was long but moved quickly. We were so excited we didn’t even notice the line much.
We had stopped at hotel for the night in which Bruce always likes to go to a Best Western as he has points there and also likes to keep collecting his points. He worked out of town for so long and many years in his life that he was always in hotels. Collecting points!
Dusty and I were chilling in the car while Bruce drove us
Roadside views
The grandkids were texting me about how much longer as they had arrived to the house before us.
These two are like magnets 🧲 Levi loves Dusty with a house full of sisters it’s nice to have another bro around
One of the videos on the start of the vacation
This was a beautiful flower close to where we met the bus
I had bought us these T-shirts which I am still wearing
This was Jr and Kim and the kiddos in the car on the way. Kim does most of the driving as she is very good at it and can roll some miles.
Stopping for gas ⛽️ you know is a must in traveling…..
Kim had mentioned all the things they had ready for the trip and I said did you get the road atlas lol she said no so apparently I didn’t think of everything. We laughed and laughed over that. Us old skoolers we think of the non internet things.
The trip was amazing!! I will cherish these moments forever. Here are some more of the highlights
Today Bruce and Dusty took off the trash and now the trailer is empty. It has been a long winter. Plus it cost money which it was $135 bucks which is a lot when you are on a very tight budget. We also pay for curbside pickup and the cans that are used. The stuff on the trailer was mostly stuff from the bathroom remodeling last summer which really went on until December or January of this year. We can’t count how long it took shhhshhh!
So that was nice to see that gone I stayed here and worked on my painting of Day 75 Mushrooms of the 100 Day Project. 25 more days to go. It’s went faster than I expected and now everyday I’m like what’s my mushroom today. I enjoy it.
Sending all the love on this windy cold day.
My aunt called yesterday for Easter and so did Cody and the children. Brooks and Baker got new shoes and toy chainsaw’s . They wanted to tell Papa about it. So cute. Jr. is still fighting cellulitis in his knee. It just showed up no apparent reason and he’s on antibiotics. He did receive a bolus of antibiotics in the ER,
Hello and a warm welcome to a Happy Easter Day 2026. The picture above is from last year with my grandchildren in NC. Look how cute they look and in their sweet outfits. I love anything tie dye and peeps are so fun.
Clarissa today Easter Sunday baskets full of goodies
I see the Easter Bunny was really hoping around he stopped and left Dakota a basket of goodies as well.
Samantha got the hook up I see. Can I get some chocolate I know you and Kim don’t like it. The bunny 🐰 must know one’s allergies.
Happy Easter Levi is that a chocolate bunny??? Best story ever haha one year, Bruce and I went I would say around 2005 and bought all these HUGE chocolate bunnies for the kids for their Easter. Colby was the baby at the time. Bruce said we can leave these bunnies out in the car until they get settled down and then hide them…….. yeah right. I forgot about them (these chocolate rabbits had a name) idk but it was like 80 degrees the next morning I went to the car and they were all melted down to a flat pancake all inside the box. Needless to say those bunnies were not in their Easter baskets. I was so upset then but now I laugh at it.
A box of pop tarts??? What??? My favorite is Peeps and black jellybeans.
An old picture of Alexis at one of the Easter’s at the trailer we lived in around 1997
