Today i made 2 drawings as my things of the day - the dude has big hair and the rhino always walks downhill.

I am putting together a package for my sister and her family, and I had something handmade for everyone except my brother-in-law.  I had no idea what to make him, so I figured you can never fail with a handmade ashtray.  I wasn’t sure if he’d get what it was, so I threw in a felt cigarette, too.

This thing of today is a silly toy designed to contort the appearance of the guy in the image - you shake the picture gently and change the shape of the nose.
Here are 2 shots:

welp!! here i am again…checking in….dropping a line or so…..and now i’m caught up……i found another picture that i think is sooooooo cute….what do you think?

This is not at all what I had planned, and far earlier in the day, but I was laying awake with insomnia (my theme of the week, I guess (See my blog for proof)

I’m about to send a birthday present off to a friend who shares my love of silly, whimsical things and I thought I’d make a card (not made yet).  Then I decided to make a crappy art piece to go in it (not made yet) and  hype it up as if it was the real present.  Anyway, the card and art thing will come this weekend, but the message I have done, and I’m calling it my Thing-a-Day for Feb 1

It’s just a silly little poem muchly inspired by Dr. Seuss… (oh and for the Britslang challenged, larf=laugh).  This is what I get up to when I’m sleep deprived!

Ok, what’s this organizing stuff?  Nope, won’t do it… ain’t going to happen. I am firmly resolving to have my thing a day be spontaneous, silly unexpected & fun.  And you all should not tempt me, with this being organized stuff!

Yikes!! what if i run out of ideas? what if i don’t have all the pieces i need? What if i don’t have computer access one day?

See, you are tempting the perfectionist already… Nope i say, i won’t do it!!
