Here we are in the 10th month of two thousand twenty of the Lord. A few weeks ago earth’s equinox adjusted itself again, soon autumn’s splendor will be visible to the eye. October’s chill is a welcome after summer’s heat and I love to wear my cozy socks, sweats and a fleece jacket around the house. I find it especially relaxing to sip on something warm, especially in the early hours to get my brain in tune for the day.
Today I’m rolling two challenges into one post. It’s been awhile for me to get in on Rain’s Thursday Art Date, so I’m excited to share my ‘Ghouls & Trolls‘ art sketch which
I sketched this before I did my realistic eyes illustration that I shared a few weeks ago. I had hoped to go back for a retry of this but ran short on time. Incidentally, it was Rain’s art prompt that inspired my Ghouls & Guys battle, I decided to use two songs with similar titles.

Today I’m joining the Thankful Thursday community. I’m making an effort to work into my daily content something new with the hopes of broadening my reading audience while sharing something new for my loyal bloggy friends.
- I’m thankful for now there is nothing wrong with the crowned tooth I went to see the dentist about on Tuesday and I’m glad DH’s dental appointment went well, too.
- I’m thankful that we’ll soon be able to pickup our Avalon from the body shop.
- I’m thankful that the trucking company’s insurance provided us with a rental car for the past couple of weeks.
- I’m thankful that we got the windshield replaced in the Avalon at the same time the body working was being done. The cracked windshield was not related to the accident. Something struck it one morning while DH was heading to work. He drives so to not put the car at risk of such things but you can’t always know when something is going to come at you.
- I’m very thankful for the manger at the body shop that we use. He’s a great fellow who does his best to accommodate our wishes and the quality of his shop’s work is A1!
Have a doodletastic day! X💋X💋, Cathy
