Thursday Dinner Date & Hanging Out

Happy Thursday my friends! I haven't put up my tree yet and looking forward to doing that this weekend hopefully. I am looking forward to seeing a play on the weekend. I love plays so much especially when my friend is in a play. 😀  I am going with another friend and I can't wait. I've been reading more this week which is a great thing! :) Reading slump over and hello more story time and 

OFF THE PHONE! YAY!

Linking up to Rain's Thursday Dinner Date and today's theme is Hanging out. Which I love to do around the house. I love hanging out around the home with my Leuchtturm1917  journals and sketchbooks, pencils and drawing materials. FuN! 🤩  Also linking up to Little Things Thursday! 

Hanging out around my home must include cute pillows like gingy here. Got her from Home Depot. 

Pizza and coke zero for dinner. To be honest I can only have two sips of coke. 

I don't like it very much. I just can't do fizzy drinks anymore. 

Not a fan of pop but I do like fizzy orangina drink.

Also pizza makes me so thirsty.  I miss my hubby's home made pizza that he made in PEI. 

So good.

I love peppers and mushrooms on my pizza. 

I started a new mini sketchbook and made a few postcard artwork as well. 

This one is a watercolour of the lighthouse we had close to our home in PEI. 

West Point Lighthouse. ❤️ 

I miss PEI. I miss spending time in Nature with my hubby. 

Well my friends, I hope you have a wonderful Thursday and I hope to see you tomorrow in Gillena's Art For Fun Friday post and Nicole's Portrait Challenge! (the portrait challenge is next Friday)

Can't wait! 😛

Happy Tuesday! How are you all doing?  I hope you are all well. 

It snowed 

I love looking at snow!

I've been busy with journaling and artwork and some drawing and painting. I have been also cooking, cleaning and keeping the house in order. I am trying to stay active too. I am happy and feel blessed and good. Hope you are all doing well aswell.

I've been enjoying tea with lemon and honey

Made a digital collage on Shuffles 

Touched up some old Christmas Postcards that I made last year.

New Post Card

Junk Journaling in the Christmas Composition book

I kindly received this beautiful card from a lovely friend Joy last Christmas. I can now use all my Christmas cards and memories and keep them in this Composition book that I am making. 

As I sit at my desk this is my view

Made another lovely Christmas Postcard that I am sending out to a friend.

Have a wonderful day and a wonderful rest of the week!

I am off to sketch some more for the Portrait Challenge! That post will be up this Friday! 

Can't wait to share that with you all. 

Thank you all so much,

This week I battled with a two day migraine which I am so grateful it has gone away! Thank you Lord that was so bad. I am feeling so much better! :) 

Here is what I worked on yesterday

This week I was able to create some new junk journal pages in an Oxford Composition book. 

It's a Christmas themed journal. 

Here I am working on the cover. 

I added paper from the dollar store and pom poms which I think are super cute. 

PAGE 1

I printed out that poem from Toronto Public Library Archives 

PAGE 2

PAGE 3

I used christmas scraps from the Christmas Amazon Catalogue. 

I am going to try making at least three pages a week in this book. It's so fun and festive and I will be adding recipes that I like and lists and Christmas songs too. Super fun to make. 

I also put together a November Vlog

If you like have a look.

Thursday Art & Dinner Date

Happy Thursday my wonderful friends! Linking up with Rain's Blog Thursday Art and Dinner Date

The past two days I had a really terrible migraine and I was not feeling good at all. The migraine is still lingering. Along with menopause, hot flashes, migraines and lymphedema on my left arm I'm on a fine line of being annoyed all the time. I am trying really hard to hang in there and be positive. 

I did wake up feeling a little better this morning so I made some art and had a wonderful and yummy meal. Today's challenge word is Pumpkin Pie. I never realized what a challenge this would be! I had a hard time coming up with the pumpkin colour. I only had crayons, markers and pencil crayons to work with today. 

 I will keep trying and practicing. 

I used some reference photos from pinterest.

Dinner

Homemade chicken soup with celery, carrots, onion, rice and lemon topped with black pepper and sriracha sauce with grilled cheese pita on the side.

Have a wonderful Thursday my friends! Thank you for reading and commenting.
