I sketched these in the Bright Ideas journal.
I had to use Freshly Minted Suggestions
for the best designed bottle cap opener thangy ever!
If you don’t have one of these 50+-year-old gadgets then you haven’t lived.
And the memories of the fields of strawberries in Dana Point,
pies my mom made, jam she tried once or twice, and bowls of fresh berries? YUM.
There will be more strange rock stories.
Okay, so they spelled Pallete this way then I did too but it kept bothering me
and then I found it is palette… oh well.
I couldn’t resist showing how much I use and love these pieces of plastic that stack.
I admit it, better than porcelain because they stack.
You have to understand how much a part of our lives the Dyson is…
Between upholstery at the studio and cats at hoe and the studio…
my husband is a madman.
30 years. Nine years is when I stopped collecting tokens.
I went with my brother….
It never took for him, and we cremated him four years ago.

Love how you’re using this colorful journal to explore the positive in life. One Q: Which model of Dyson Vac. do you have? R and I are searching for a vac with attachments, and that pulls like a black hole, and also works on wood floors (our entire house has wood floors and area rugs). Thanks, Katie!

I don’t know about wood floors tho Dyson seems to adapt. This is the sucki-est vacuum they make, simpler than the others, and we are happy.

I never saw the strawberry thingie until I met my wife. I was amazed. I love the detail and the depth you captured in the pallet. We have a kitchen rock, but it’s an old joke. My daughter found a rock that looks just like a potato. We put it in the bag of potatoes as a joke. My wife fell for it 100%. She kept the rock.
