Today, I felt like drawing some cute situations with stick figures, to revive my inner child.

One has to do with skiing, the other with swimming.

You guess which one is which ;^)

Then I drew some dwarves in a sideways world, fighting gravity, 24/7

How do you like this one?


Who am I kidding, I have spent the last week and a half with my 7 year old niece and 9 year old nephew. I can hardly find the time/ focus or energy to blog. At the end of the day, after they are in bed, I feel like doing the same.

So, today, I felt like sharing some cute and colorful drawings that my niece has made in the last couple of days.

I think they are awesome and am happy that ( my twin sister, her mother and ) I have been able to ingrain a love for drawing, in both her and her brother. I might share some drawings of my nephew in a future blog post.

Meanwhile, the rain just keeps falling outside, as if we're in some kind of Rainy Season, here in central Portugal.

And that after reaching 30 to 35 Celsius in the first half of October.

All in all, I was reminded of this album, by an artist that my father liked a lot ( and I myself too ), Marc Cohn:

Marc Cohn - The Rainy Season

The first song makes me pretty nostalgic. I've listened to this album so many times ( with my dad ). Whenever I put on music in their house, picking a CD from my dad's huge collection, there was a chance I selected this album.

Wherever you are, dad, I hope you're listening ;<)

Gonna end it here, as I hear my niece and nephew fighting, while playing Mario on the Nintendo Switch. It's hard for them to co-operate and treat each other as friends, they are brother and sister, after all ;<)

Have a great day, wherever you are!

I am about to play some Mario Kart with my two favorite monsters...
