RTBTCKI (Cloudy Day Ahead with Rain Likely)
Posted By Kathleen David on April 7, 2011
I almost thought that my clock was wrong because it couldn’t be that dark at 7:00 AM but the Cable Box told me otherwise. I heard Caroline’s door close so I knew that she was up and around therefore it was time for me to join her.
I got her breakfast and she is eating it with the kitten trying to get her attention.
The Fig really isn’t a kitten anymore. She is more of a teenager with the ability to get herself into trouble. She is a cat without fear so she keeps trying to get places that she shouldn’t be.
Caroline’s new favorite book series is the Bad Kitty series by Nick Bruel. She has read through all three books twice now while giggling a lot. They are a good combination of visuals and text. I would say that they are on about the 2nd grade level in terms of vocabulary but I think that the ages that would enjoy them is even bigger. Heck, I even enjoy them.
The cats have informed me that their food bowl is empty so I got up and refilled it along with changing the water in the waterbowl.
Oh well the Orioles lost as did the Mets and Braves. It happens. I just hope it happens less than it did last year.
Peter challenged me yesterday. We came up with a crazy idea for a book and now he has challenged me to write it. It is such an insane idea but I will give it a go.
There is a big difference between using photo as reference to draw something (which professional artists do all the time) and tracing when you put tracing paper on top of a photo and copy the photo with some minor changes. There is a minor dust up about the difference between the two on a board I read on rare occasion and that is part of the reason it is rare that I read it. Then I read about someone copying/tracing at a convention recently in someone else journal so that brought it to the front of my brain again.
Peter handed me another challenge to get done before ICon. Let’s see how I do.
I am grateful for books that make my daughter laugh.
