Cute label design

What I bought earlier this week.

I didn’t bother adding the name brand, I don’t think it is necessary to document the super cute gimmick. 

Ugh! I don’t like delivering packages

No prompt- Grrrr! Not happy that I’m doing work and not getting paid for it especially since someone else got paid but didn’t do a good job.  I mean really, the app on my phone got me to the right address without issue.  Besides, the package was left out in the rain since we don’t have a covered veranda.  The last time this happened it was a package for the farm next door but still; numbers don’t lie.  Our green number (for 911) is clearly displayed at the end of our laneway, we aren’t #600 and we aren’t on the 7th Line.  Cheez, a multi billion dollar company and they don’t train their employees on how to use technology that would make their jobs more efficient!!!   It is just so annoying!

COVID-19 Vaccine

I’m so happy that our 9 year old granddaughter got her first shot last evening. What a trooper! She gave me her sticker for my journal entry! 

New and improved mousetrap

‘Tis  the season for the vermin to come indoors for warmth and food.  My husband made a replica  the ”Last supper” mousetrap for our son-in-law.  Ours catches lots of country mice so I think it should do well in the big city.  Not sure if the bait will work as good and it will be interesting to see the results.  The traps are baited yet so this mouse was wondering what is happening here. 

Porch decoration

We are visiting the family in the big city and so I drew their porch decoration.   While listening to the Christmas radio station, I painted and added the sentiment. 

I laughed when I realized I had drawn myself in the Christmas bauble! 

Pencil crayons, watercolour and pen in my Handbook journal.

First cactus

No prompt- I bought my first cactus.  I have never been a fan of this prickly plant after it jumped up and bit me when I was in the neighbours garden. I think this is so pretty with its pinkish red flowers and it’s not overly prickly.

Hoping I can keep it alive for awhile.  I don’t have loads of luck with plants. 

A variation on a theme

I am thrilled to learn this simple technique to make an easy knot each and every time. 

I’ve been checking Utube to see what information and videos they have.  I saw one that is close but not quite the same as this.    I just needed make myself a reminder so I wouldn’t have to turn my computer on to figure it out again.  I made a bunch of knots this morning and will have to practice it again tomorrow!
