Corner Snowman

I drew a calendar for the remainder of January and all of February. And for the first time in a long time I drew something on some of the empty space:

Freehand Prismacolor pencils and Pigma Micron pens.

Homemade Gifts

Gift cards and certificates are all well and good, but I made these Christmas gifts for my local nieces & nephews myself. Die-cut snowman shapes that I got in a bag for a dollar, all gussied up with Sharpies, to make personalized 'event' certificates, each marked on the back with name, '2022', and "Hang Out With Food" (or in my oldest nephew's case, "Hang Out With Brewskis").

This will give me one on one time (or smaller groups) with each of them sometime over the winter and spring, because they all often inquire "Want to hang out sometime Uncle Kenny?". This will ensure that time is indeed taken out of our busy lives, to spend together as they grow up into amazing young adults...

Good old balsa wood, coming in handy yet again!
