I came across a journaling prompt recently that someone told me about 2 years ago - I wrote it down then, but never tried it. I want to start now ( Read more... )

That's fantastic! I love it! And your drawings are wonderful!

Thanks. I think I really might be able to do something with that prompt - I hope I can keep it up. My drawings are are about a simple and fast as a drawing can get! It's embarassing!

Nooo! Do not say your drawings are embarrassing! I think they are very endearing and emotionally expressive. I truly love them! I used your prompt and tried it out myself, after readying your post. It's actually harder to do than one might think! And I didn't even attempt to make a drawing because it would have been extremely simple - as in stick figures!

Stick figures are ok. :-)

I DO like this! I might give it a try, too. I hope I can keep it up, but I can't seem to even get out a LJ post anymore, so I don't know.

I found it written down in one of my old journal books and it sounded very interesting. Yeah, give it a try! I want to.

You can do it, Kathy, I know you can, and we'd enjoy seeing it! Go for it!

egg_shell May 17 2015, 12:52:01 UTC

I hope you can do it. I would like to hear about what you did, saw, heard and drew!

Love your self portrait book! I wonder of that man was singing 'Our House'. I sing that one and I used to sing it a lot when we had two cats.

I must say you fit a lot into your days - far more than I do.

Well, Saturday is a big day usually cause I go to town that day to a meeting - that accounted for 3 things on my list. :-) Most days the things I did that I will have on my list might be take a photo, write an LJ, do the dishes, watch a movie, make a phone call - small stuff.

Oh - here is the song I was listening to: https://youtu.be/bjjc59FgUpg by Patrick Watson

Great idea, I may give this one a try. Having some structure might help me to post more regularly. Your drawings are cool, honest and heartfelt.

Most of my structure for my LJ postings seems to be about putting a photo or photos on here. This might be more interesting!

Thanks.
