Outerspace

I apologize for not scheduling my post ahead.  I meant to finish doing this yesterday afternoon but you know how things go with life getting in the way.  On Tuesday, I threw my name into the hat for the A to Z Challenge for the 8th year in a row.  I will do my best to finish out this month’s normal blog participation and I hope I can carry the momentum through the April blog fest.  In the past I find it hard to get back into the groove after such a busy challenge so I’m hoping this will keep me on track. 

Rain’s art prompt this week is space.  I decided to go with ‘outer space’.  A few weeks ago, we tried watching the movie, The Coneheads.  I really wanted to like it.  The SNL skits were always so much fun, but the plot moved too slow and we gave up on the film.  I thought it would be fun to illustrate the out of this world family.

Oh, drats, I just noticed I forgot to sketch earrings for the ladies. *a Procreate design*

I momentarily thought about sketching Mork from Ork and I was hoping I would have time to include a second drawing but I ran out of time.  Perhaps another time I can draw Robin Williams as Mork.  Let’s listen to “Conehead Love” written by Dan Aykroyd and Bruce Gowdy with Nan Schaefer singing.

This week’s Thankful Thursday for the good progress I’ve made so far this week with my A to Z Looney Tunes sketches.  Later today, I have a date with the vampire to drain some blood for my HRT pellets with my new GYN so I’m very thankful to get this done and my new dose insertion soon.  It’s been 5 months since my last dose but thankfully I’m handling things okay – no night sweats or severe mood swings.  My sleep pattern isn’t as good as usual, though.  All-in-all my body seems to handle the lows much better than when I began these treatments 8-years ago. 

I’m looking forward to Golden Slumbers (The Beatles) to kick in after I get my pellets!

I’m winding things up today with Kat’s Writing Workshop.  This week I’m keeping things simple and am going to show you a place I love to visit, Bar Harbor Maine.

Scan from an old 35mm camera. The quality was horrible so I added some grain to the image to make it more interesting. This was from October 1997. We hope when things go back to normal again we can return to Maine for another wonderful vacation. This time we’ll be kid-free.

The first song to pop in my head looking at the boats in the harbor is what I decided to share, Christopher Cross’ “Sailing”.  I hope you enjoyed the song.  Tomorrow is DH’s off Friday and depending on how things went yesterday will determine if I’m able to compose a Friday Sillies post but if you don’t see me then know I’ll be back Monday with double posts of music with BoTB and Monday’s Music Moves Me with oldie rock n’ roll tunes.  I’m heading over to Rain’s Garden to browse through the gallery of artistry.  You’re welcome to follow along. Have a doodletastic day.  X💋X💋, Cathy
