 It is Sunday night. It is seven o'clock. Yep, seven o'clock. We are headed to a late night grocery shopping session to hopefully get enough food for the next two weeks or so. I have my mask here so I will be wearing that in the store. I have one for Bob. We'll see if he'll actually relent to wear it or not. I've been logged all day. I've been just working on the eyeball journal and stuff around the house. A nice chat with my sister and niece and stuff like that. Kind of a chill Sunday. I'm okay with that. All right, we're going to go get some shopping done. We'll see how empty the shelves are or aren't. I'll be back. We're back in the car. I feel safe enough to do this. That was pretty successful. So we went to the Safeway and Sherwood and got everything on our list. Of course, they don't have any toilet paper, Clorox wipes, or Lysol spray, but those are hit and miss anymore. So you either find or you don't. I don't have my seatbelt on. So we're good on all those three of those things at the moment, but when we are out shopping, if I see some, then I'll get an extra one just to not deplete our stash of what we do have. But we got everything else. We should be good on groceries now for at least a week and a half, right? If not, hopefully two weeks. Hopefully two weeks. Hopefully. If it was Bob and I, we'd probably be good for like a month with what we bought, but we've got two 25-year-old teenagers at the house. They're always old. Yeah, Polly's especially. It's having a 60-year-old boy in the house. Anyway, so we're going to head home now and we'll be back. So what happens when you're trying to hold the camera one handed? Hey everybody, it's Monday afternoon. It's about 1.15 or so p.m. Monday, March 30th. I'm headed out to go get the mail and I've been doing chores this morning and video editing and stuff like that. I haven't gotten any artwork done yet today because I've been working on all the April videos. I'd like to get them knocked out today. I have two more eyeballs to do in the eyeball journal and it is done. I was going to try to get it done over the weekend. That didn't happen. I am going to try to get it done today. It is on my goal list. So anyway, that's a thing. What else? Okay guys, right or wrong, one of the few things I feel that I can do without a mask is go walking with the husband and the dog, especially because more often than not, there's nobody around and hasn't been in a while. I live in a very quiet community. Anyway, I think I'm pretty safe. While we're out tonight, we're going to drop off some painted rocks. It is raining a little bit, so I don't know how far we're going to get, but we'll find out. I'll be back. Okay, it is wet and we're getting wet, but I've got two more rocks to give away. We might not make it to the library box, but we're going to drop these off somewhere. There's a couple of neighborhood houses that I really enjoy their kids' sidewalk chalk art and things like that. So I've been leaving rocks on the porch and we're going to find two more places and then we're going to turn around and head back. The next time we come out, I'll bring some more with me because I've made, I don't know, a couple dozen, so I've got plenty. All right, I'll be back. Okay, all gone. Found one more house, one more neighbor. So we're going to find a place to turn around and go home and maybe have some tea. It's a little wet. Hey guys, it's, I don't know, 1.15, 1.30, 1.45, something like that before two o'clock on Tuesday, March 31st and day however many I don't know of stay at home because of the pandemic. I spent the morning filming another more couple unexpected videos. I'm supposed to be cutting back on how many videos I film this year in post because my channel can be a bit overwhelming but that hasn't happened yet. So we've got a couple new videos including one making headbands with buttons on it for the nurses and doctors to save the backs of their ears. I have a friend who's a nurse and she was like, the backs of my ears are sore and bloody and I said, well, let me see what I have. So anyway, I did. What else? I made a kids, another kids art video. It was a few days behind in that so I did that too. I haven't managed to get anything else done today. There's a sink full of dirty dishes, the stove needs cleaning. I'll get it done. I don't know. It's a weird, weird time in all of our lives. It's very strange. Anyway, this is the only thing I feel safe doing without a mask on. I think this afternoon when we do go walking, I will probably start wearing a mask. It's just this whole thing is so weird. Anyway, all right, that's it for the moment. I'll be back. Make a point on my way outside of making sure Bambi had food. They've been hovering around the bowl most of the morning so I knew that we're hungry. Anyway, now they're having their snack. We're about halfway through our bag of deer corn so when it's empty, I'm not sure how we're going to get more. All right, I'll be back. We are headed out to go walking. I've got another five rocks to leave somewhere. I might leave them all in the library box. I don't know yet. I've got a surgical mask in my pocket in case I feel like I need it and my inhaler, of course, cough grub, allergy season so you know, besides everything else. Anyway, we're going to go get some walking in. Got another kids are video loaded to the channel and another video that's directly related to the coronavirus outbreak. I don't know what else to say but anyway, it's a sewing video. I might eventually put the mask video and today's headband video into the sewing playlist. I don't know. We'll see. I'll be back. Hey guys, it is Wednesday, April 1st. April Fool's Day. Only there's no jokes to be had today. I don't know if you follow me on social media and if you remember a couple months ago I found it was advertised as a bad boss voodoo doll at a thrift shop. I'll insert a picture about here. I've taken it and decided to turn it into a positive affirmation doll. So my friend Mike Deacon has a Facebook group and he's been doing special art prompts for everybody around the world who is stuck in now because of the quarantine because of the virus and every day I am prompted by what he posts to think of a positive affirmation word and then Prince said a word onto a little scrap of fabric and sew it to the doll. It's a goofy crazy hot mess. It's going to be cool when it's done. So I'm going to enjoy that when it's done. Then I at the same time I bought a kit that was new and unopened called Gorgeously Gruesome Zombies. It came with some fabric and parts and also mainly it came with this book on how to make these little felt dolls and I don't know if you all remember back in the day I used to make what's called a dodie doll and I'll try to put some pictures here if I can find some old pictures in my archives somewhere and I forgot how much I like making them. So I took a couple of the patterns out of this book and I've blown them up a little bit to 125% size and printed them on cardstock and I made my first little zombie. This is Miss Corona. I forgot how much I like making these. So I spent today and made her too so it's pretty cool. I did turn off my computer which I have to turn back on again because I filmed working on the little voodoo doll, positive affirmation doll. I filmed it, I edited it, and I rendered it and everything and I wanted to put it over on Patreon for the patrons over there. Only I forgot so I gotta go put it over there now. Oops. And I think we're gonna have fajitas for dinner. Nobody knows it yet for me but we have some fajita chicken in the freezer and we should have tortillas and cheese and all of that stuff. I'll probably saute up some onions and peppers. Yeah so I think that's what we're gonna have for dinner. Making it work with what we have. It's the name of the game in the coronavirus right? Yeah yeah. Anyways what are you all up to? Oh I also did find I think all these old crafts. I forgot how much I love making these little fell dolls and I'm gonna be making some more. I cut out four more little zombies so I'm gonna make some more. And then when I was looking for stuff I found this strawberry pin cushion kit. I don't know where it came from. I think somebody gave it to me. I don't remember who. I don't know but I'm going to, I'm gonna open it up before I go downstairs. Make sure there's a needle in here and I might do this downstairs when I'm on the sofa tonight. And I have a bunch of needlework kits too that I've found so I think I'm gonna be working on stuff like that. Forgotten, forgotten art right? So yeah all right what are you finding in your stash in your house that you've forgotten about or you've been putting off? You've been purposefully neglecting to do and occupy your time with while we're all stuck I'd love to know. I'll leave something down in the comments. All right I'm gonna get that video loaded and I will be back. It's okay dear. All right so we're out for another walk getting some fresh air and exercise in while we can as safely as possible. I've decided to name my first little zombie doll Miss Coronavirus. And I already have an idea for another one so they're fun to make so I'm gonna keep making them. Anyway I'll try to find a link for the zombie kit if I can find one. I think it was originally from Target so I'm not sure if it's available or not. I don't know but I'll look and see. And anyway we're gonna go take spas aka Lily the puppy out for a walk and we'll be back. They're all here see? It's Thursday evening I haven't vlogged at all today. I forgot till just now. She's trying to hide from the camera. See it's Polyas's birthday. Everybody say happy birthday. And Lily you see her? Yeah she's down there begging for a piece of the cheesecake that Becca made. See happy birthday Lily. It's my birthday. She's three. Yeah and begging for human food. Yes we did feed her but she's still hungry. Come figure. See look it's like ooh cheesecake that's dog food right? Crazy dog. All right so we're out for an evening walk. I have a mask as soon as we start to see humans I'll be putting it on. You are but you don't count I live with you. Okay. Anyway I got some more face masks made today some more like this. I have a particular friend who was in desperate need and so I got her some made and sent off and then decided to make some in this style for the boys in the house. I have this feeling we should already be wearing them out in public around other people. The boys don't like to hear that and now they're just my daughter but I have a feeling a strongly worded recommendation is coming quickly if it isn't here yet already. Anyway enough of that nonsense let's go get a walk in shall we? I'll be glad I put my mask on. We just ran into a runner who didn't understand social distancing so I was able to step to the side but yeah that's not the point. All right we're gonna keep going on our walk. I'll be back. So we don't know if those were ducks or geese. My husband thinks they were one of the two. I don't know. I know they were loud yeah. I know about as much about birds as I do plants which isn't saying much. If it's not a succulent I might have trouble keeping it alive. I know a lot more about art supplies but you know no big surprise to those of you who know me. All right I'll be back. If it's not the geese it's the bullfrogs. They stop as soon as we come up to them. I don't see them like we do but we can hear him till like we walk up here. Hey guys it's Friday afternoon 4 21 p.m. I forgot to vlog again today. But your life is just weird right now. Anyway I made another zombie doll today. I'll insert a picture here. I'll be making a few more of them. They're fun to make and a great way to work out what's going on. And what else? Not much else except laundry. I am. Good morning. It is Saturday morning April 4th I think. Thursday was the second third yeah 4th. It's 10 29 a.m. We're getting ready to head out to go look for supplies. Such a big deal. Both groups of couples we're going out in pairs have the same list. We both have masks and all of that stuff hand sanitizer. The kids have to get some stuff for the construction that's hopefully still going on at their house but they're going to see what they can get and also try to get some other supplies so they've got the same list we do. And we're not going for groceries. We're looking for the things that we couldn't get last week i.e toilet paper, Clorox wipes, Lysol spray, hand sanitizer. If we can find a few bonus things that we use a lot of like our favorite vitamin water and stuff like that we'll pick up. If we're in a place that has that and they have that stock we will get some but it's not our focus today. We're going to also try to go out and Lily is here so I have to spell it W-A-L-K-ing. There may or may not be some walking trails that are still open. We're not actually sure. They are starting to close things and we do want to maintain social distance and do our share and stay home as much as possible which we've been doing. At the same time if we can go walking and there's no one else around or not too many people and we can be six feet minimum apart have our masks on and all of that and we're going to go get some fresh air. So that's what's our agenda today. I guess I don't know if you can see the little black shadow right there. I think she wants O-U-T so I'm going to go do that and I'll be back. So hey guys, yes it's us. We're out for another walk. We did a lot of walking already at the shops and stuff but and down by the river but we didn't get to take Lily with us so she was looking at us pitifully and we didn't know how to say no. Right? So anyway, that's the end of an interesting week. I think we're going to have more interesting weeks than not going forward. Hopefully they're good interesting and not bad interesting but I guess we'll see. Anyway, I'm going to put my mask back up. I'm going to continue my walk.
