In Which I recall vivid but long gone past days

Good morning, my friend, reader of this present post! How are you this last day of the business week? As for me, I am okay. Happy it is almost the weekend, and next week I have some doctor appointments booked, it promises being productive, then, or at least have some works done as for example with my ears and eyesight. How is the weather? My area has the weather trending towards rain, grey mornings, which are ones I appreciate, so no issue there, and just a temperance of the heat, summer 2026 is almost a bad memory at this point. I went on a shopping spree the past few days, which is not exactly the most responsible thing, but it is what it is. The most indulgent of the purchases was a pair of pajamas, that I was in spiritual need of. They are a number too big, but it was what was offered by the store when I went to the website, given most of the models were sold off. I wanted that fabric a lot so I decided it was worth the bigger number. In any case, much better getting bigger than ge...

Sketch of the week! In which we talk about the snowy scene with the Christmas lights!

Hello everyone! Happy Wednesday to you, and good evening! How are you today and how are things going? As usual, I wish you the best, and hope you are having a good day! My day today was productive and calm at the same time, I'm on the process of watching the voice finals, which is always amazing to see, I'm making some sketches and slowly trying some new stuff, and my plants maybe will get new vases soon, because many of them are growing so much! My experience with my plants has been enriching so far! Some have struggled but are starting to come back to life now, a couple have died, but most of them are doing well! It's always complicated, of course, you have to make sure everything is doing well with them, but overall I think I'm doing fine with them! 
Something really adorable happened today! I was on a walk earlier today, and I found a kitten on my way. I petted the kitten, and the lovely creature followed me around for a long time, and she was being (it was a she!) really kind towards me, rubbing on my feet and my hands. I was a bit concerned about the kitten, since it was on the streets, but I'm happy to say the kitten is being taken care of! She has a nice place to sleep, food and water and most important of all, the kitten is neutered. She was a bit thin, but overall looking healthy and really sociable, so that's lovely! Anyway, I don't doubt the incredible ability of cats on being independent and thriving even living by themselves, but for a pet it's always nice to have a home!
I think I like pets a lot, I'm not a huge pet person, but I love cats and dogs, and I'd love to have a cat one day, when I have the chance to have one.
I'm so happy it's December and Christmas season, but how fast this month of December is passing! It makes me both happy and sad that December 24th-25th are so close! Because it's the height of the season, and after that it's gone for another year... Christmas oficially goes until January 5th, but still... And let's not talk about the next year now, still too early for that!
Okay, long text for our Sketch of the week post of today! Like I said, I made some experimentations on drawing and coloring recently, and I made this christmas drawing I'm about to show!


These are the winter trees and the snowstorm, and also the christmas lights on them! We have red and yellow! It's windy and cold, most people are at home, appreciating the snow, because snow is beautiful indeed, or at least I think so! It's crazy how seasons work, I can't experience that, where I live we only have wet summer and dry summer, I want to see snow and cold one day, or see how spring works, and stuff like that. I do love Christmas even without snow, it doesn't lose its magic for me, just seeing the decoration around, it's impossible not to love it. 
This drawing has my dry trees, my snowy ground that I'm always looking on how to improve, and my snowy sky with wind and snow, and something brand new: the Christmas lights! Without the ugly wires though, let's leave it for another one, and anyway, this is not real life, this is my drawing, and it doesn't have to be 100% like reality...
And this drawing I made on Christmas season is what we have for today! Thank you so much for being here and for reading this! You are the very best and you know it! Have a wonderful night and I see you on my next post! Yahoo! And happy December!
