illustration friday - mirror

Two is always better than one.

illustration friday - crooked

It's been a while since I've posted but I want to get back into the swing of things. This week's Illustration Friday word is crooked. All I could think of was Kato's crooked dew claw that gets me every morning when he tries to wake me up. Also a couple of days ago was "Talk Like a Pirate Day" so I combined them for this quick little doodle.

illustration friday - lonely

It's been really lonely around here with my husband still deployed.

Here's my PSA, then I'll keep calm and carry on:

Our military service members represent only 1 percent of our population, but they shoulder the responsibility of protecting our entire Nation. Missing birthdays, anniversaries, graduations and so many of the daily moments we spend with the people we love, they make incredible sacrifices. But, they do not make them alone, they have families that keep the home fires burning while they are gone. 

First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden have called for Americans to show their support to our military families, who sacrifice so much in service to our country. Appreciate these service men and women and their families with a message of support for their contributions and dedication.

Illustration Friday - Secret

It's no secret that I haven't posted in quite a while, I slipped down the rabbit hole. When I found myself watching a puppy-cam for a good portion of the afternoon I knew I had to get out of my rut and get back to the doodles that I love. So I assembled my supplies and tried to get back on my blog horse.

illustration friday - yield

Whenever I hear the word yield I always think of Henry V and King Harry's standoff with the french,
"What say you? Will you yield, and this avoid?
Or, guilty in defence, be thus destroy'd?" 

We have that standoff everyday in the yard over the Wubba. I think the Wubba is the loser.
