The other day someone asked me what do I do now that I don't spend 24/7 on the computer writing and doing research.
A whole lot of nothing was my answer. The better answer, I realize today, is a whole lot of experimenting with stuff, such as plants, crafts, sewing, baking, drawing, writing, reading, and whatever comes my way.
So, today, I show off last night's results of my experimenting with the markers I purchased on a whim earlier this month. Lucky for me there happened to be a box of crayons nearby so I didn't have to get off the couch.
Actually, that questioned posed to you I find a bit rude. I recall when I told someone I did nothing on the weekend and they reacted with a surprise and tried to make me defend my very nice weekend. I couldn’t help it but replied to their question of “you did nothing?” I just said I picked my nose, wiped my butt and ate chips off my stomach. You are busy plus recuperating and needing to take things slow. Love the artistic piece especially the 2 headed men
ReplyDeleteha, ha, haha, I can imagine the person's reaction. Hope the person thought twice before asking such a question. Thanks for coming to my defense, B. :-) I love doing my nothingness.
DeleteAnyone who has the time to question how others spend their time, they have a lot of time on their hands. I think enjoying your time is precious. Have fun and do what makes you happy :).
DeleteHi, Sweetbearies! I've never thought of it that way.
DeleteNice art
ReplyDeleteI did a whole lot of nothing today as well. I don't know why people feel the need to be busy all the time. Sometimes it's nice to just sit and be for a while.
ReplyDeleteMaybe a workshop on nothingness is in order. lol
DeleteLot of fun!
ReplyDeleteDoodling certainly is, especially when there are colored markers and crayons around.
DeleteI could use the same sentence you used to answer the question but I would almost always have to end my answer immediately after the word 'nothing." Lovely doodles. When i first retired I bought a box of colored pencils and had some fun with them, but that was before I got a digital camera and a blog.
ReplyDeleteI'm going the opposite way, Sallie. Art and craft stuff are beckoning to me. I want to add quick drying concrete to my toys. Don't know yet what I would do with it, but I want it handy when I do. Hee hee.
DeleteSometimes art works better if one doesn't have to get off the couch. :)
ReplyDeleteIn this household, it certainly doe.s. Okay, me. :-)
DeleteI love this. Post and the doodle!
