Journal Spank for February 5th

Oh that Ricë. She is a prolific blogger and I really admire that. There are plenty of things I like about this woman I've never met and one of them is that she has orange hair. I wish I had pink hair. I nearly did once when my hairdresser didn't get that I was joking. But aside from that, one of the other things I like about her is that she provides plenty of prompts for journaling, both serious and light-hearted.

Here's the entry for today: a syringe she conned out of her doctor's receptionist the other day, and a binder clip. I used a drawing pencil to render them but switched to a red brush point Pitt Pen for the page itself. I wish that all these lovely colors came in other points. I like the Fine, Medium, and Broad nibs in addition to the brush points. But do I want to pay $12 for a set of four of each color? And yes, you just know that I'd have to have all four of every single color! It's one of the things we princesses do.


And I had to include this photo of Cody. The other day, Chance bolted through the dog door with his favorite blue bone in his mouth. (This is the second one of these he's had. The first one was totally destroyed. So far, this one is faring better.) After playing tug with Nana, with me, and with Cody, he guarded it for a little while. Then he dropped it on Cody's feet and went back outside. "Guard this for me, dad!"

And Cody did for about an hour.
