It's Easter Monday & EARTH DAY  - double the reason for celebration!

Earth day is the perfect day to tell you about my new card line! Why Earth day - because of this image  below I had a revelation!  It's more important to ME  than fame or fortune to NOT have something like this happen - because of me, because of my creation'.  

As a cartoonist & long time Garfield , Snoopy & Scooby Do fan - this must cause nightmares for the cartoonists. Over consumption, mass production & most of it - over time ends up  in a landfill or on a beach in France like the garfield phones.  Jim Davis did not throw the trash  there but he created the mass produced kitty monster and it got carried away- literally by waves. Sure he is a multi millionaire (presumably) at what cost to the Earth?  Apparently Bill Watterson too came to this conclusion long ago & did not allow for mass production of Calvin & Hobbs products to ever be made- no license sold. Imagine the amount of $$$ he turned down. 

I am reminded God has provided all I need & more! I feel especially good about this Easter Monday, Earth day &  I don't need or even desire fame or fortune..  I'm blessed with some outstanding humans in my life (no money needed)  & have enough to  keep me content - but I am constantly asked: Why don't you offer prints?  Where can I buy your cards?  
Most people can't or don't want to pay for an Original painting & I understand that but  I'm not about to contribute to landfills with mass produced product - I can't.  Instead I hope I've come up with s solution...  I am selling ORIGINAL cards - EVERY Single card is hand painted ONE of a kind - for an affordable  price  & I'm even offering custom cards - also  very affordable! 

Why send someone a card that thousands have? NOW - You can spend a bit more & send someone an original! Over the years I've tossed countless cards- haven't we all?  Yet I've kept all tiny originals I've ever acquired from others over the years.  This week I will be introducing you to my new WWW - specifically for my little hand painted card company!
Weeeeeeee - I am so excited!!   Weeeeeed!    & that is how a line of cards was born:
​
                                Weeeeeee!    Turned into:  Weeeeeeeeed!!    

​& some cute funny cards have been created- I've got quite the inventory already...
Today I'll show you my first card to celebrate & it was sent to start of the card company on the right foot- or wheel! : Weeeeeeeeeed!    Everything is more fun  with Weeeeeeed! 
Come back tomorrow  to see MORE & be directed to the new www - It's anew day!
   Rise up & own every minute,  make a difference today - I know you can, I know I will.
​Weeeeeeeeeee - with THC & THC!!! Lots.

The lord works in mysterious ways - he keeps me laughing in between crying.
I AM continually reminded how I have been helped many times over- I realized a few things yesterday after a Ray of sunshine on what started a grey morning! 
I learned over the years I have met some incredible lawyers  & EVERY time they have helped me & have never charged me.  Once a police officer even went to court to fight for me & won.  I have been protected my whole life.  Thank you Lord.

They all have told me they know/knew I was/am telling the truth and helped - it's been that simple... I guess they should know if they have been living it long enough and they also know when someone is not doing something 'for money'.  Yesterday I ended up speaking to a lawyer (I never met before) all I know is his name was Ray and he was a Ray of fucking sunshine I needed.  He explained a few things & I have heard this before  ONE other time:

No lawyer wants to spend time on your case, although  it's NOT right what you experienced - you were NOT physically hurt (other than a sore breast & slapped on the arm & back) like -I did not lose a limb in a car accident - so WHEN I would win- I'd only get a small amount and it's about $1,500 just to start a file.  A lot of time for little $.      I get it. 
He also understood I don't want any other woman to experience this.

Wow. The other time we heard that was when the genetics specialist at Sick kids told us:
No scientist are going to waste time trying to find a cure for a disease that only a few people have.  Storms illness was/is considered an 'Orphan' disease - very rare.
 'That' back then... felt like a slap. 

MONEY MONEY MONEY...         Good thing I know  God has my back, no deposit required only faith in others and myself needed.  Ray restored my faith in humans. He didn't even know.  He inspired the thank you card... already in the mail.

There's nothing like a kick in the teeth of reality to give me a kick in the ass to make shit happen myself! I realized I am not weak-  (as I felt in that office last week) I am STRONG.

That "technician" I'm confident will definitely THINK the next time she behaves as she did
NEVER LET ANYONE TOUCH you in anyway you feel uncomfortable!  Being smacked on the arm while my breast was in that machine - SHOWED her LACK of control & let me clarify for the record- it wasn't about being 'SMACKED' as I've been smacked, punched slapped, hair pulled, clothes torn and then some my entire life - far worse than what she did to me.  To treat a patient (stranger) as she did while my breast was in that machine - showed her LEVEL of professionalism - Treating a patient who is naked & vulnerable & frightened  with anything other than compassion - speaks volumes about that 'PROFESSIONAL'.  

I was grateful to  Ray ' he calmed me down - explained things as they are, was patient....  after I got off the phone & painted (felt good) I made him a thank you card- as I do. It made me LOL - I guess it is HOW I heal.   I realized when I looked up the address - I just had a conversation about my "fucking boob was in a vice when she lost it!"  with a 'criminal lawyer.'  That made me really  laugh out loud.  Someone who deals with murder... I did think later... I should have punched her - I'd been happy to explain it to a judge.  I could not have reached.. my boob did not stretch that far...  that & she was definitely NOT  worth me hurting my painting hands!
 
I do think Ray thought 'tit was a joke for  a second when I first called him as he asked 'who told you to call me??  (9 a.m.) Another lawyers had given me his #.  I am forever grateful for his brutal reply - it saved me time and energy' then - I knew the exact direction to take and the rest of the day went so smoothly - all I could think:
                                       Thank you again, for answering my prayers.

PLEASE NOTE: I LEARNED these 'PRIVATE places'- when there is an issue - GOOD LUCK!  & Ray told me that too-  it's not like you can even contact anyone - there is NO ONE on the WWW for you to ask for - that alone should be sending up red flags! They have it so it's work just tracking them down,  who has time, energy - or in some cases $ for lawyers.
FROM NOW ON I will have all my tests done at the hospital or with a REGISTERED organization with reputable service & PROFESSIONAL, COMPASSIONATE employees.  

I share this bullshit so YOU Might avoid it- I won't give that bitch another thought, she's not worth it.  Life is too short & I have painting to do- cards to make & smile to produce!! AMEN.

ANYONE who thinks I'm being dramatic - HAVE a STRANGER put your breast/penis in a vice while  you're naked & trapped - alone in a room with a shut door - you can't reach -  then  you are slapped  by them  while they are yelling  their credentials!   Have that happen...
Then let's have this fucking conversation again.   
I bet your perspective changes.

Lesson learned  it will never happen to me again! I go prepared from now on to every appointment & IF I want someone in the room with me - I am getting someone IN the room with me! FUCK that- this system needs FIXED!!!

Wait until you see my Space Monkey that inspired another space monkey - and a space monkey painting! Time to get creative. 

The image below was pulled off of Google with just a couple of complaints I easily found : KESWICK ADVANCED Imaging.  Do not say you have not been warned! I would never recommend any woman go here for a mammogram!  
CLEARLY THERE IS AN issue...   WHY is this person still working there!? I feel sad for the young mom too.  NO, not 'physically hurt -  still  - fucked with mentally BY an angry bitch who takes it out on PATIENTS.

Ladies,  about Dirty John... print this card & put it on your fridge as a reminder of what we really need in our lives.  * I've included the downloadable image on the bottom.
What a dirty EVIL nasty parasite, who wants to believe they exist - not me.  They do.
Over 50 - I have several friends who are dating/single and after watching dirty John..
most are getting a new dog or cat  & vibrator - do you wonder why?

I speak from my own online experience this past year that left me stressed, sick, having nightmares & more. I was emailed nude photos, intentionally lied to and mislead for over a year, received phone calls & yes it was the same in many ways- he would say things like: "Why talk about that when I have a sweet little Canadian like you to talk to.."  those where his exact words.  I do remember because I've been married a long time and not heard words like that for a while,  he  was charming, attentive, flattering yet he was telling people at his Greenhouse in  New Mexico  "I was some crazy Canadian Stalker"  who was hideous & he'd never be seen with someone "that looks like THAT.."  as he showed a photo of me off of instagram to his 'lover'.  I have it all in e mail, heard it in person from her & so did others...  direct from the woman he was/is involved with at the time. He once sent an email (I still have it): "Quick, whats the closest airport to you? I'll come & visit" while in transit... I later sent him an email "you had no intentions of visiting, you're just playing mind games - fuck off"...  I  have several e mail where I ask him to stop fucking with me, to stop communicating with me..  he did not instead he played on my emotions and told me how lonely he was,  how sick he was & even sent me a photo of his fathers grave - because  HE understood - I AM a nice, caring person!   

I AM done feeling ashamed about it & I have been.  & let's not forget I'd just had brain surgery (unsuccessful) & HE fucking KNEW it.  His lover said he was stalking' me via my website long before he contacted me - under the premise to purchase art, which he told his staff I had gifted him after watching him on a 'Vice Special'...  phhhhbt.  The special he must have sent me at least 6 messages about, he was so full of himself.   
People did not believe me  when I first  told them what happened  because of  'who' he is'.  
 Pay attention to the news-  it does not matter "WHO" anyone is. 

            THEY ARE ALL capable of being Dirty Fucking Johns.  
                         Comedians, Presidents, Billionaires & Beggars
                               Ladies: BEWARE the DIRTY JOHN.

I do warn my women friends... I won't repeat ALL I was told  - I don't need to because they know - for me to say :'stay away'- STAY AWAY.  He shares naked photos - "of stupid women who send him naked photos in hopes of snagging a millionaire" (her words) with his employees - she told me of a few she's seen. I don't know what's -what - but I do know how I was treated, lied to & have more than enough email (from both) to prove it.  FUCK him - I did nothing wrong but think someone was actually being nice & trusted the nasty American- that's how I feel, sorry.  Even my friend remarked, after speaking to him on the phone (more framed work)  "He's sounds like just another American fucking with a Canadian."  
​I'd never forgive myself if anyone I knew also fell prey to this predator.  
In hindsight I thank my psoriasis & twitch too...  had my confidence been better -  I might have met the SNAKE IN THE GRASS industry. 

Thank you Jesus for your continued protection and reminding me that you know better than I do.  Thankfully for the woman, who I am still  concerned about, it is an abusive situation imo  that she is still in  - I've had nightmares about her...   I might have had a worse situation than I did & thank God, I'm not one for sending naked photos. Did you see how Dirty John sent that naked photos she sent him to her employees? Family & friends.... because that's what nasty fuckers do.
 
YOU can't believe anything anymore - what you see on profiles social media or even after speaking to them..  TAKE your time & get to KNOW them before YOU get involved.  After my lesson - sadly, I've lost trust - I've no interest in meeting anyone ever - this asshole has even frightened me from possible online friendships...  I got my dogs!  Cats &...   :) .

In most cases that daughter in Dirty John would have been dead or she would have been beaten or abused.  I have no desire to date ever again - me wanting away from Norm has never been about that' - but i'd be a liar if I didn't say that loving attention sounded & felt nice.  So, who am I to judge anyone woman who keeps going back to a lying abuser - I get it ladies & I support you. I support her... still.

Several friends (my age & up) this past week told me  "Forget it- who needs it... I'm getting another cat"  this was a card I drew for a girlfriend just incase she is tempted by some Dirty John on  a online dating site.   I'm not saying nice guys/gals don't exist - take your time!
IF they are nice & true & interested in you - they will wait.. you'll know.
Listen to your gut.  Watch for signs, we have all said the same thing... we are very grateful she shared her story and that of her family.  
If you are being abused I hope you can escape your situation.

I'm grateful after watching 'Dirty John', I just have a...  pain in the neck Norm.  lol 
I would like to end by educating you on Sam Fazio - & telling her:
Thank you!  You are a WARRIOR!!  I believe you.   
I am sorry you have to live in a country where WE ARE ALLOWING THIS  behaviour to thrive & that  judge needs to RETIRE!  WTF!?  
Do they not have children? Daughters.
FUCK the judicial system that continue to let this happen.

My bottle of Kracken next- my drunken Octopus. 

Who's ready for summer?? Me!  21 days till spring...
This owl peeking around the corner flys off the page, I love this feathered friend if I do say so! What  a pleasure to paint such delicate plumage - Canadian barn owls this summer flying over  cannabis field in the cool summer evenings - can't wait!

Norm came home and showed me the paper right away (held it up to my nose- yes, he rubbed my nose in it you could say) - "Trudeau's time is up.."  he says and looks at me for a reaction - which made me think two things: ...Norms got a death wish   (lol)        &
Are we encouraging Fake news now,  nasty news?  Phhhhbt....  Man oh man- talk about ship jumpers - JUMP- cause there's just as many sharks in that icy cold water wussy! 'Trudeaus day are numbered' &  my pal Crusty Rusty had to get a jab in too today - called me first thing to ask if I was paying attention to 'my heros happenings' - or something smart ass like that I don't remember his exact words.  My response to them and anyone else... with 'Canadians' like you waiting for him fail - almost encouraging - wow. Are you paying attention to whats happening down south?  Speaking of The USA - Take a look at who' is still calling the shots as of today - wtf? & is still making deals with others. YIKES....
 and hang on - What about those  planes  NOT flying over India this morning?   WTF?  

I'm not blind or ignorant - I have developed a heavenly habit of reading during the day  yes, I do read, it is a luxury many do not realize you have.  Yes, I know it's far from perfect but Please, do not tell me  Justin Trudeau does not care about Canada! ARE you kidding me - Look at his family & look back at your own - I know because of his love for his family he cares for Canada.  
Is that not what does drive us ALL? 

Canada is HIS family & his home - LOOK at this beautiful Country -  Canadians are not leaving, tourism was the best last year it has ever been, do you understand the amount of money that brings. So - No, I'm not happy about any pipelines or political private parties at our expense but I'm not jumping fucking ship.   Ever.  & Change happens.

I believe in those I believe in & thank God, there are still many I do believe in.
You know who you are. I believe in my son & it's funny to me even - but as much as Norm and I  "Arrrrrgh!!!!"  we still have each others back, I have many Americans I feel a bond with & I KNOW you know.. (strange stuff happens) - I had a slight exchange of words with  an American pal   ;) who said "he'd rather his kid be in a room of people with guns than a room full of fat people"  I grabbed my head and sighed in frustration but I get it - I DON'T live there - I don't see it... one month (almost) in California was a different perspective I can assure you.  A reminder of the rest of the world is not doing so great in some places.  If I lived there with obesity getting out of hand and guns - you make choices based on your surroundings I'm not going to judge anyone for their choices - I don't care. AS long as WE don't KILL each other

*My condition has been so aggressive a few days this week - I cannot even pick up a phone,  Nothing touches my face, no make up, no toothbrush - even the pillow - I'm done explaining -  if YOU lived this- your opinion on a few things might change too.  
WHO are you?   WHO do you believe in?  WHOooo do you love?

I believe in me.  I believe Justin is doing what he believes is the best he can do for Canadians.
I believe in many of you.
Thank you for that. xox

A toddler has died apparently accidentally ingesting fentanyl in Kitchener  a few days ago,
my heart goes out to these parents - accidents happen, we lost a dog to an overdose years ago & it changed me, I can't even begin to tell you the times I  blamed myself - because it was my medication left on my end table, in the bottle - child resistant *not dog* cap)  
I never thought a dog would do that. Obviously.  
It was  a most difficult lesson & education on many levels.
Please do not judge this mom - but DO go right ahead and judge the fucking pharmaceutical companies that continue to GET rich while innocent people/toddlers continue to die.

It's been dangerously windy & raining this cold weekend, great for napping with my girls.
A brand new electric knife appeared on the kitchen counter yesterday. 
Go fucking figure.

Valentines for beautiful little black girls! 
This idea came to me while  looking at vintage valentines - to try to get a few ideas for cannabis cartoons.. as it happens I stumbled across one of the worst Valentine cards I've ever seen & the only thought to enter my mind is "When  is this EVER o.k.?"
The card mentioned was a 'black faced' little boy with a rope around neck (actual piece of string)  - stating:   Be Ma valentine.. I'll be hanged if you so no.                
It seems black face in general was a "humorous valentine" - topic... why I don't understand.
Who the fuck drew that? How was that EVER o.k. in anyones mind- never mind the person who signed it,  as a card creator I can't even fathom making such a card. I believe cards  make people happy, spread joy - make us laugh & yes many are rude but this is simply racist nasty, hatred.  It broke my heart to think that actually was seen by people never mind  enjoyed by someone...  & how would little kids feel who saw it? Black children? 

If you don't understand the hype around Gucci's black face sweater - or blackface- do some research, it's black history month so the timing is PERFECT for education!  Google images - or PIN even - black face images were used to 'make fun' of  others and most are seen in a very derogatory way - The person capable of creating such a card(s) is racist & ignorant. Then after looking for a bit- I noticed how few black children are ever portrayed in valentines at all - in art! Remember the fun sheets we had as kids, sure there are animals, cats. dogs, rockets but very few black children. I always had black friends growing up in Toronto, I don't remember what valentine they would have got, although I was big on cartoon characters - so it was probably Wilma or Betty... still. 
WTF? 

I've created some valentines for beautiful little black girls to receive & give from other little black girls or white girls to give their black friends -(boys too of course)  It's ABOUT LOVE
All shades.   These little beautiful ladies are so cute- I enjoyed drawing them, painting them and will paint more. I was intreguided to learn of all the hair styles & the fact hair is such a hot topic, for example i LOVE  afro hair I think is adorable and stunning on adults - men & women  I never realized the issues around it.  Black Hair braiding IS a FINE art - I can't even imagine how long some of these hair styles take. 

Such ignorance can't be erased from the past- I guess it's good we realize it finally & hopefully CHANGE - Children never deserve to be dragged into ADULT politics or judgement.  

Happy Valentines day! I love kids- all kids, all shades - they are the most creative beings I've even been fortunate to work with on this planet- the best thing I can do is CHANGE this Valentine situation - starting with the sheet for Beautiful little Black Girls!

Tis the season for depression.  That is the reality for too many.  You are not alone.
I've seen friends say they don't feel like Christmas at all,  know of some that are having family struggles (don't we all), custody battles - where will the kids spend Christmas, recent  separations & stress over holiday confrontations or alienation... a couple of girlfriend lost their moms this year and are struggling with the first Christmas without - makes me glad mine is still here & cooking all the veggies  -  :).   At the same time  I see & feel their sadness - one friend can't even speak to me about it - we both TEAR up instantly.. she has a huge family & will survive the holiday I'm confident.  How about those with a small or no family.. do you think Christmas is a happy time for all, hardly.

Then there is the stress of Christmas spending, I'm seeing that almost everywhere - this thing about giving people money - what's Christmas going to come to? A banking holiday?  Not sure what to get someone for fear they won't like it, having too many you feel you should buy for, I read the chance of a heart attack of the holidays increaser quite a bit- is it the food? The excess booze? The stress?   Shovelling snow is often a factory btw.. take care.

This year has been incredibly stressful, I try to pretend it's not- yet I'm having difficulty even leaving my home (my trust in humans is not what it was)  & throw in Trump to the list- I'm positive that  orange ape is responsible for an increase in Christmas depression around the globe.

When I look at the effect the toll of stress has had on my own physical body just since the summer - my one side has completely covered in psoriasis that wakes me from pain at night & the scabs on my back and down my right leg to the bottom of my feet -  I'm concerned it's got out of control...  So,  NO - the last thing I'm going to 'let' stress me is Christmas.  Tis the season - it can be very overwhelming for adults & children &  pets - I don't know about you but I'd like to encourage all of you who are feeling blue, sad, depressed - - embrace it  & say FUCK IT! It's just a holiday, just another day - if you're focusing on Jesus- awesome-  as that is the reason  for the season.. Jesus knows  so don't sweat it-  if you can pour yourself a cup of medicated tea or a glass of nice wine.. roll a joint & climb in a  warm tub like this sweet little ginger & slide in and RELAX ('Im about to do this now)  it will be a great start to melting holiday stress... warm jimmies, movie on Netflix , medicate popcorn sprinkled with cinnamon... GIVE yourself a BREAK &  Fuck it.

3 blind mice.. see how they roll.
This drawing was inspired thinking about Amy Anonymous  & her Christmas drive for the homeless, gifts of coats, cookie & cannabis & I happen to think Amy is Awesome for this task alone each year, & ALL her helping hands involved - from donations to distribution,      I thank you.  I've watched her grow.. as a business owner, mom & person, she is a hard working woman  that's for sure.  More on Amy in the new year. ;D

Which little mouse is on the ball?

Crafting, coloring & creating are all opportunities to make memories & teach, what better  time to teach about cannabis, Christmas, natural medicine & more.
Here are some  decorations you  can color, use for gift tags,  attach some string & make a garland or hang them on the tree. Cut out & color each one, stick on a bigger piece of paper to create custom cards. I've even included a mushroom  - a very popular tree decoration in Europe - it is a wonderful introduction to talk about reindeer, wild mushrooms & NEVER eating a mushroom unless you are positive it is safe.

If you bake, clearly mark your edibles to avoid any confusion during the holiday & safely keep away from children & pets.  Just over a week away & Christmas will be here.
​Happy Holidays.
