Paint by Numbers of Splatter

Have any of you bought those paint by numbers things? I never have. But I feel like I'm all over the place. It's kind of like parts of me are just splashed across the four walls that surround me. At least if it were paint by numbers I'd know how to put myself back together. Thank goodness for humor. God has given me a lot of blessings, and finding the humor in things is definitely a blessing!

@AmbiePam It's so cold and there is snow and ice everywhere, it's depressing.

I loved those when I was little. Whatever you are going through I hope it gets better soon.

Life is like that isn't it, it breaks us down and then builds us up. Being resilient is a helpful trait. Humor makes many things tolerable, sending a hug.

I know what you mean. I feel scattered all over the place a lot too! Hope you get your splatter back in order. . .

I did Paint by Number as a kid and enjoyed it very much. I've even thought about doing it again.

@AmbiePam It is. It let's me pretend I'm an artist. Now I would need to go to a hobby store to find them.

Matter of fact I found some old ones never done in a box and gave them to my granddaughter that was helping me. She colored them with colored pencils and they looked very good.

I have bought the paint by numbers for my daughters. My oldest loves to draw and my youngest likes the help to do the picture. Personally, I can't draw at all, so it would be paint wherever it lands for me.

I have thought about getting them for my daughters. I am not sure if they would follow the directions though, they like to do things their own way. May as well get one and give it a try, they are fairly cheap.

I've never painted by numbers. I'm glad you have a sense of humor and feel better soon.

I had those as a kid and still couldn't make a painting look good. I hope you get painted all together soon!

I haven't done those since I was a kid.. I think we all sort of feel like that at times, and the nasty weather doesn't help!

Ah, good one - and true - it would much more convenient if things could automatically fall in place and be in order like that. Quite often it's more like a puzzle rather than a painting!

It is a HUGE blessing! There are too many people who take things too seriously and wouldn't dare to laugh at something. It bothers me. Laughing at things makes life better! :-)

Aw, it's beautifully written. I hope you feel more put together soon. Maybe it's time for a new hobby? (maybe painting? )
