Designing Darla – a Pandemic Pastime

To entertain ourselves and keep focus off the news : we have been drawing.

I have been looking for outlets for this art and remembered I had stumbled across Spoonflower in 2014. I popped some pictures in there and printed them out as samples which were mailed to me.

Our friend, Sally Roten, had started sewing and selling face masks at http://www.gomaskurself.com. I took the opportunity to take fabric over to her for perusing and using.

Well, it seems people like my artwork and Darla’s art too. We are on track to earn $200 a month in commissions.

Neat!

Her lower back hurts so badly she can’t move her legs easily so the nurse line said to come to the ER.

Here we are, waiting whole she quizzes me on Batman and D.C. Comics facts. She knows how to use the glossary and the index. At least she’ll be well prepared for research projects.

Tele-momming ain’t for the weak of spirit

leave a comment »

Today is the last day of Darla’s third grade. We made it through and she did well. I’ve had to work so sometimes she’s been hanging out by herself

We are in almost constant contact through the telephone, through Alexa, and through the webcam in my room. But sometimes I see things that just break my heart and I wish I could be there with her. It makes me want to quit my job and just stay home.

Nose bleed

And Darla has always gotten nosebleeds. And today it just started while we were talking through the phone. Trying to talk her down and into the appropriate way to deal with a nosebleed is quite the adventure. I’m sure my house will look like a murder scene. This is on top of the nose bleed she had at midnight last night.

My poor baby.
