This is the day. . .

I have had the The The (an underrated 80's synth-pop group) song, "This is the Day", running through my head like an earworm.  For some reason, it made me think of little Eeyore.  Does he ever think, this is the day his life will surely change? And then his inside voice goes, "I dunno Pooh, I suppose. . ."  These are the questions that keep me up at night.

This picture started out with me doodling some calligraphy, using Diamine Ancient Copper ink (I just love, looooove this ink).  Even though I got the lyrics (and anyone who knows me, knows I have a propensity to butcher song lyrics), it still works.

InCoWriMo #2 -- Dragons, Knights and the Heavens' Cloth

This one is for T's (and my niece).  I wanted to let her know she can be whatever she wants to be. . .the hero (knight), the princess, or both. . .all at the same time.

One of my favorite poems.  You have to love the Irish and the infinite capacity to be sullen and sad.

(I wish I had started it a bit higher on the page.)
