April 29,  Wow! I could have ” danced all night!”  Today was awesome!  I am writing this as we drive up to Orlando.  Today was a day to remember.  The day started with a real humdinger of a thunderstorm.  I had class until 11.  I ran home, showered, and off I went to the salon.Continue reading “IFJM Day 29 – Prom Night”

Take me out the the ball game…. April 28…today, in softball, I hit an in-the-park homer.  I was almost to stunned to move!  We had two people on base, and the count was 2-1, the ball coming in was too good not to hit.   So I cranked it and sent it flying to theContinue reading “IFJM DAY 28”

April 27…Well it seems I have everything under control.  There’s no drama with my sisters right now.  My grandmothers are both coming Friday, and so are some of my aunts and uncles, to watch Promenade.  Right now, I have some time to just kick back and sketch this palm tree in our yard.  I loveContinue reading “IFJM day 27”

I purchased some Noodler’s Bulletproof Ink and I have been using it all month.  I love it except for the fact that it doesn’t dry quickly on the Fabriano hot press paper so those smudges you are seeing are my hand wiping across the damp ink as I write.  I can do the sketch partContinue reading “IFJM Day 25”

April 23,  softball game this morning.  We had to travel 45 minutes to get to the other high school butContinue reading “IFJM Day 23”

Sometimes the best medicine is conversation….otherwise the sky will always be falling…. April 22,  so it was quiet today at school, girls were discussing prom stuff.  Sally was coordinating the carriage ride, a couple of my friends still need to pick up items for their outfits.  Dad asked if I wanted a poofier skirt forContinue reading “IFJM Day 22”

Apri 21, Did you ever have one of those days where you felt like the screaming person in that Munch painting? Well, today was that say. First, I found out that Sally’s mom rented a horse and carriage and it will be taking us from Maggie’s, to the Prom location. God I hope it doesn’tContinue reading “IFJM DAY 21”

Transportation to the Prom….ok Sarah, open mouth….insert foot. April 20,  so again, more cafeteria conversations….Today the girls were discussing how we were getting to the Prom.    Personally, I assumed it would be parental wheels; my Dad’s or Patrick’s.   Maggie, my friend and fellow softball player, is having pictures at her house before theContinue reading “IFJM DAY 20”
