Spring 2021

Good morning world. well, it seems spring has finally come I will soon get my second vaccine against the virus that has changed our way of life for so long, I wish people would just do as recommended  I mean with spring comes baseball season starting and people told to still wear masks hardly any did in texas with stands full it looked awful people seem so I don't know what to say but dumb do they realize it is not over yet as all the older people are vaccinated the smart virus will attack the young you watch and all we have to do is wear masks again all I can say is dumb.

I have changed so much since my cancer diagnosis 2 years ago when you have to fight to live so hard accepting chemo a poison to run through my body to attack my cancer cells. makes you wonder why others can not simply wear a mask they wear seatbelts in a car for safety and laws, shoes on the feet because stores require it so you do not cut or break a toe, aww never mind people again some are just dumb I guess wearing a mask is not hard unless you are dumb.

while undergoing chemo and then in isolation because of covid one of the things that helped ( I am sure I mentioned it before) was and is adult coloring. here is a link to a past post. Adult coloring.



I have been finding that coloring app for my tablets it be android or ios are filled by numbers, or fill your own way but few are freehand with pen or finger and those that are cost more money so I found a way using Autodesk SketchBook, you can download free coloring pages that wonderful artists offer on Pinterest, Instagram, or search engines some coloring facebook groups offer them, you can also download photo scanner for your phone and scan your own coloring books and coloring pages. so the ones I find online I download to the device I actually download to store in my google drive and get them from there when I want them for my device then load into the sketchbook, you can flood fill you can freehand color you can zoom in you can even blend and use all the tools sketchbook offers a video I made with a bit of a how too is below I did all this because so many can not afford to keep buying new pages or even books and pencils believe me it does run into money I have bought so many pens and colored pencils as well lots of coloring books. I can't afford to do it like I was since covid. I also did this because of my eyes not being the same as before so I like I can zoom in as I color-free hand for me is so satisfying and no erasing just undo. well, I hope you enjoy it and that even more, wonderful artists will offer freebies. Coloring helped me through the chemo and covid down time It kept some depression and stress away I hope it will help others.




Back to it being spring the flowers are blooming bushes budding and soon leaves will fill the trees, I love birds and critters watching out my deck sliders I feed them. the squirlle chasing away the doves yet they come back quick it was just a startle here come a couple of blue jays and oh yes a sure sign of spring the robin. they wake me now in the morning hey lady get up hey lady get up they all chant we want our breakfast.

Easter has come and gone church on line than a big feast of ham potatoes and vegies, some photos for memories then sleep comes again days do seem to go by so fast I hope you all had beautiful Easter Sunday it was sunny and nice here in NewEngland. I must get a few more things done today so until next time friends,  Probably when my beautiful lilacs bloom I will share some thoughts and photos.
