I am really enjoying drawing my puffy people, above. 
I use a china marker, and I like the tiny head, puffy bodies.
I am working on drawing them in all kinds of positions.
Using a china marker, my mistakes are more or less permanent.
 But, I like the effect. I am not sure what will follow.

Some of you mentioned wrote about enjoying 
the very special 3-minute video in yesterday's blog, here.
It really is a lovely little movie, that brought me to tears. 
My stepfather was a rather famous racehorse trainer 
in Melbourne Australia. I lived there from age 11-14. 
I had my own pony and a retired racehorse, plus 2  dogs, 
a cat, a cockatoo all a big change from boarding school at
 Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy, since age 8.
 In my opinion, there is something very special 
between a girl and her horse. 
Much like dogs, they feel your moods and try to help. 
A girl can tell her horse anything, he listens and understands.
Whenever I see a girl and her horse, I always smile.

Update:

It's 11:05 pm and I am just staring on Saturday's blog?
I usually post at 12:03 am or sometimes I run later. 
I have accomplished nothing today, but that's okay, right Val?


I found out that I have an Olympics channel. 
I have been watching women's gymnastics almost all day, 
falling asleep a few times.

A zonkey!
 This unusual little ungulate was born at the Chyulu Hills National Park in Kenya and is the hybrid of a zebra and a donkey (hence the portmanteau). The puzzled staff enlisted the help of the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, a nearby wildlife rescue group, and eventually solved the mystery. The unnamed zebra mama had "obviously become acquainted with an amorous donkey" while spending time with a local cattle herd. According to the rescue group, the zebra and her baby zonkey are "thriving" in their new habitat.

Wouldn't this be great? And a camera?






Have you discovered the joy of napping? 


In my early years, I thought it a punishment.
In my middle years, I didn't have time, too busy.
in my later years, I find it a reward, a gift, (a necessity?)



















Need a nap?
