So day one, completed. That wasn't so bad................................
It is raining tonight. For some reason, when it rains I crave Chinese food and want to eat it straight from the take-out carton with chopsticks. Since I did not have any Chinese take-out, I made some cards tonight along with the bookmarks. Here is a get well card I drew plus added some stickers for a friend:
Here is a Christmas card I made from a photo of my dog's present that is currently hanging in the tree until Christmas:
I also drew a birthday card and added some rhinestones. Sorry the photo is a bit blurry, next time I will try scanning it instead. My friend's birthday is on Christmas day so instead I wrote "Merry Birthday Eve":
The above card is Zendoodle-inspired. I really enjoy drawing. In August I broke my shoulder. I was standing on a step stool painting the ceiling of my bathroom and fell backwards into the bathtub. I landed on my shoulder. I suffered a three-point fracture of the humerus. It was the worst pain I have ever experienced, that includes child birth. I was not allowed to move it and of course I was on pain pills. The first thing I was finally allowed while still in a sling was to move it as if I was writing. Well, I immediately picked up my micron pens and started drawing again, making cards mostly. It was my therapy and what got me through a very difficult time.
I had a doctor appointment yesterday in fact. I am finally allowed to have some weight-bearing exercises (two-pound weights) and I go back to the doctor on Valentine's day! Here is one of the first cards I made while still in a sling back in August. I made it for my doctor to thank him for everything he has done for me:
