Hello everyone, how are you all doing? Hopefully well.
I wanted to thank two mylot friends, who I have received Christmas cards from - @just4him and @LindaOHio - they are both very nice cards! Both of yours will be in the mail soon.
I mentioned last night that we got some more snow. Thankfully, it was not very much. It either didn't stick too bad to the roads, or was melted by the time I got up and looked outside.
Since it was my mom's day off today, we went over to her house early and had lunch instead of being there for dinner.
After that, Eli and I went to the store to do a little shopping. I should have gone on my own though because there is something at the store he is wanting, but my mom got it for him for Christmas...so I have to think of reasons why I can't buy it for him right now, or why he can't with money he's saved up. He was not too happy to say the least. Will be glad when Christmas gets here, lol.
Other than that, not a whole lot going on here. Catching up on YouTube videos tonight. A lot of those I am subscribed to post new videos on Friday.
For those who like to see my artwork, here is another penguin design. I know I should make some other things, but I love the penguins in these kind of winter scenes. What do you think? Anything you'd like to see me try to make?

You need to shop without him, so he won't know whether you did or didn't get him what he wanted. I never shopped for Christmas with my children in tow. They always let us know what they wanted. Not being with us made Christmas morning a surprise for them, not a temper tantrum for the entire Christmas season.
I love the design.
I'm glad you got the card.

@MommyOfEli2013 Oh, okay. I'm glad you have them hidden.
You're welcome.
I look forward to getting it.

I was grocery shopping, not Christmas shopping. But he made it his mission to find the item that he was wanting even though they moved them. I definitely don't take him when I am buying the Christmas gifts. Plus, we already have his gifts that we bought hidden.
Glad you like the design!
And yes, did on Thursday I think, but been so busy I haven't been able to share that I did. Yours is being sent out today!

Hi there! Your penguin design is adorable! Penguins in winter scenes have a timeless charm. I'd love to see your artistic take on portraying a woman's face that shows your emotion for that day. What do you think?
The anticipation of Christmas gifts can be both exciting and challenging, especially when there's something wanted but it's a surprise gift.

Glad you like the design. For a specific day, or just how I am feeling the day I am working on the piece? Either way, not sure if that is my kind of art. My husband is better at faces in art.

@MommyOfEli2013 Do you and your husband collaborate on any art projects, or do you each have your distinct creative domains?

@wiLLmaH We have done things together in the past, but it has been quite a while.
