Drawing practice

A cartoon drawing of me from the waist up. My drawing has chin length hair and glasses and my shoulders are hiked up by my ears and I have an unhappy expression on my face.

Persistence

Today is one of those days when it takes all my effort to put one foot in front of the other.

Some sort of combination of migraine and poor sleep has left me feeling thick and meh.

I do not recommend this feeling.

Pretend Spring

Winter is pulling a fast one on us.

It’s spring-like out today, around 10 degrees Celsius and the snow is receding.

But it’s only February so I know there is more snow to come.

A dame can hope though, right?

A photo of my back patio, parts of which are snow-free thanks to a combination of my husband’s shovelling efforts and some warmer weather. Yes, I do still have a wreath hanging on my patio railing. It was too pretty to throw out after Xmas so I hung it there for my own amusement.

I wish I could track things.

It feels like I have had a lot of migraines in the first two months of this year.

It would be great to have actually made a record of when I have them, how I felt before they started, how long they took to dissipate.

But it is so damn hard for me to track things like that.

It feels incredibly stressful and upsetting to even consider it.

I’m sure I am overthinking the process but I haven’t found a way around it yet.

March Plan

My goal painting for March. Image description: large pink letters that read March with smaller green letters that read move more against a background that is blue at the top and yellow at the bottom.
