3 days away! Hard to believe... Its been a busy couple of weeks but I'm as ready as Im going to be for Christmas 2022.
We are expecting a snow dump, starting this evening - leaving all to wonder if they'll make it to holiday destinations, glad I'm not flying anywhere. I have lost 8 pounds the week before Christmas -weeee!! How did I do it? The tooth ache diet. lol
With sweets all around - the thought nibbling on them has me clenching my jaw and wincing in pain - LOOK after your teeth, tooth pain is not fun & I caved, and got some antibiotics because my face had started to swell.. I'm hoping they kick in soon so I can enjoy the feast- the roast beast! I told my dentist a joke:
What do you call a bear with no teeth? ... a Gummy Bear! heeheehee
Storm took me out yesterday (to the dentist) on the shortest day of the year and it was LOVELY! We were out before 8, the sun, snow on the trees was as though driving into a Christmas card! You know, when drifting snow glistens in the sunlight - Give thanks! It sure is beautiful here, right now covered in snow- lets see how I feel tomorrow - haha. We went to Castle Antiques in Haliburton, which is always entertaining - amazing even... as I was amazed by this metal 'record' (for example) & the soothing melody. The old furniture - the wood grain and the charm & comfort it add to the home, there were several temptations - my house is not very big. Castle Antiques, worth the drive IMO. If that 'Hippo' was just a bit smaller, it would be in my living room, go... you'll see the Hippo.
We watched Jurassic Punk. Occasionally, if lucky, we all find something we enjoy. Norm & Storm both commented "That was a Great documentary, really well done!" I knew a little from reading some reviews but not to the degree, this documentary details. I cried, a couple of times... as someone who understands animation, the pressure alone let alone ALL the rest involved - how did Steve create under such pressure? It's a well known tale too, the 'ittle guy does all the work" & the 'boss takes all the credit. We all know it on some scale- this is on a grand scale.
I'm thrilled he spoke up & stood his ground. Steve bares all about the Industry & himself.
More on Jurracic Punk when my jaw doesn't hurt...lol it touches on a few topics near & dear, to my heart.
I'm sure many will be watching over the holidays- I watched it on apple & will again, during the holidays.
Best of all, I'm am grateful Steve is doing well & being creative, he makes me smile (even with a swollen jaw) & puts on his red lumberjacket to 'match mine, when we face time. I was thinking, you know its a good friend when you can 'FaceTime, minus a tooth. HeeHee I send him photos of poutine (from the Minden legion), when I want to tease him of what he's missing here in Canada. I highly recommend Jurassic Punk this holiday season!
I don't feel like painting today - my jaw that sore, I guess the antibiotics are starting to work.
Alas - I can still imagine the next creation & sketch, between naps & ice packs. Ho Ho Ho!
