Awww nooo! I hope your week goes ok and it’s too crazy for you D: I’m not sure what the plan is for this weekend actually. I do know we are grocery shopping but that’s it I think!

Grocery shopping does not sound fun. I started doing deep cleaning today for the case manager meeting on the 20th. Every year I dread it so much. Although, the last 2 years was done remotely and I liked that. lol

I'm guessing it won't be remotely this year? D: I don't mind grocery shopping, probably because I don't get out much so I'm like yay shopping! LMFAO

Michael likes those and sometimes he will eat the animal shaped ones from the store. Today he ate some that were shaped like sea animals, so I was happy about that. Eventually he'll eat more food.

I'm going to finish up the quests for today. it has been nice getting those retired items though! I'm ready for the free shop!!

No remote this year. It's going to be several hours with him here. Ugh I actually like grocery shopping too, but I figured with the kids it might be a bit rough.

yea once they learn it doesn't get them anything xD

thank you so much, i think it came together really nicely :D last weekend was long as all the kids wanted was to go back to school, LOL so glad they are finally back xP

the struggle is real x.x

thanks :D a few more to come and then Im just about out of recolors whaaat XD

did a make shift pool in my back yard for my son lol it was fun

they must really enjoy school then :D

Looks like we got two more days LOL

the best markers ever, yeah. I may have had some of the stamp ones, the main set I had was fat markers with caps that went on the back of the marker. Like these:

I like color coordinating my HA outfits, and also I try to coordinate the art style (when there's a strong distinction) and the ... style theme? like punkie or loli or formal etc. But often I can't do all those at once, so I just do two of them, or fudge a bit 😆

that sounds fun for a kid his age ❤ very sweet!

for now.. they will be wishing to stay home once winter is here

my kids have those markers and i had them when i was in school to

makes sense lol XD

homg I loved those markers XD they smelled weird tho tbh XD

I loved how they smelled. Weird yes, but in a good way (especially the cyan one).

I could definitely see a kid trying to taste the blue (blueberry) one, although they do not at all smell like food I don't think.

I could totes see my son trying it if i told him it was blueberry XD

Whah!! What will you do? Maybe you'll be doing your own art here again soon!! :-) I sure hope so anyway!!

I try to do the same. And I also try to match the art styles and I'm pretty sure you do too. Mostly I hate using items with darker outlines with items with lighter outlines. Did that make any sense?

yes, matching the line weight is one of the things that makes a HA look balanced, I agree

I knew you would know what the heck I meant!! :-D

- oh, i'm so sorry your allergies are acting up. I've had to increase my benadryl lately because of the ragweed. :)

- keep those fingers crossed, lol, email still isn't working properly. i'm finding it difficult to explain to him what needs to be done on his end to fix it. :)

- no no plans yet. he lives 300 miles away and we don't have a car. we're still saving for one although the car fund is growing by pennies these days thanks to inflation. :)

- it's not completely fixed yet but we've found a way around the issue until it can be completely fixed. Thanks, hon, so am i. this has been quite the experience for me. :) So, how have you been? ❤

- waves hi! so, what's up with you ladies? :D

Oh, I'm just a snacker. Some days sweet, other days savory. I'm relentless lol.

I've been okay. I'm glad things are going well. I hope they continue to go well. Sorry for a short reply! The family and I went out today so I'm exhausted lol

Dang I hope you get to meet up in person someday!

:-D I feel like snacking is a good thing!!

was thinknig about just doing some art in general too on the tablet that i enjoy instead of just making cws as well :D I do enjoy making cws but it would be cool to just draw a cat or something for me too xDD

sorry he is still having issues, would it be to forward to ask for his phone number to chat?

Um well I would def love some of your art on my profile if you ever felt inspired! :-)
