Day 281 of 2023

When we arrived home from today's game, 

I was greeted with this adorable drawing on my chalkboard. 

I commented on the drawing

 so the artist can see it the next time she visits.

 

Day 239 of 2023

T-bone took GB#2 and GB#4 to see the Barbie movie today. 

I think they liked it. 

Sidewalk artwork by GB#2.

 

Day 144 of 2023

Wednesday, May 24, 2023

When GB#5 comes over, she loves to color on the chalkboard. 

She also loves to draw over what I have drawn. 

She loves to erase what I've drawn even more. 

And then we laugh and laugh.

 

Day 317 of 2021

Evidently this is "aleon phisics." 

I was told to memorize it and that there WOULD be a test later.

 

Day 264 of 2021

I found a new drawing on the chalkboard. 

I'm not sure who did the drawing, 

but I always appreciate a smiling face.

 

Day 45 of 2021

Happy Valentine's Day. 

I didn't want to get rid of my grocery header on the chalkboard entirely 

so I did a little refresh with hearts and flowers for you.

 

Day 342 of 2020

I'm sewing secret stuff and knitting the same thing I was yesterday

 so there isn't much to photograph. 

I did embellish my grocery heading on the chalkboard though.

 

Day 250 of 2020

The artwork of one GB usually stays until the next one comes to visit. 

I try to remember to take a picture before that happens.

Day 319 of 2019

Our carpet cleaning company gave us a three hour window 

in which our technician would arrive.  

Of course, he arrived just as that window was closing. 

Not sure what to do with the waiting time, 

I found myself drawing doodles on the chalkboard. 

Day 162 of 2019

I have a Pinterest board called "Fun at Grandma's House."

I had a visitor today (GB#3) and decided to try out one of my pins. 

I figured what's the use of having things saved on Pinterest to do

 if you never do them. 

So today I made Sidewalk Chalk Paint.  

It worked pretty well and was fun to experiment with.  

When R came to pick up GB#3, she joined in. 

As I was looking at my pictures to choose one for the Picture of the Day, 

I noticed I spelled Bermuda wrong. 

I feel rather silly.  

If you know me, you know that this is not ok with me. 

I mean, I even proofread my texts before sending. 

I'll try to fix it tomorrow if there hasn't been any rain to wash it away. 

The next Pinterest project has been selected.  

It's going to be great fun!

Day 316 of 2018

Fall collides with winter on my chalkboard 

just as it is doing here in real life.

Day 212 of 2018

It seems I am a little behind on updating the chalkboard design. 

I don't think it's the Fourth of July anymore, Toto.

Day 337 of 2017

My Christmas chalkboard...

until one of the little ones comes to visit 

and needs to do a different drawing.

Day 327 of 2017

...to all of you.

Day 304 of 2017

Happy Halloween!

Day 357 of 2016

Chalkboard art. 

Crooked and imperfect. 

Just the way I like it.

Day 338 of 2016

GB#3 has done a drawing on our little chalkboard 

that looks suspiciously like writing.

Day 293 of 2016

Sometimes I don't want to erase my chalkboard list.

Day 284 of 2016

Here is my chalkboard grocery list. 

Wait.  What?

I was concentrating on practicing my handwriting.

I didn't notice the misspelling for three days!

Day 193 of 2016

Our afternoon activities involved sidewalk chalk. 

Everyone enjoyed although it appears I enjoyed it the most. 

We wore crowns.
