miss him

Hi, it's been about a month since you have passed. I'm still trying to wrap my head that I will never hear the motorcycle pull in the driveway. Kenny and I didn't see eye to eye on things. We had a falling out, but I tried to makeup with him but it was too hard, because he was stubborn like our dad. I am so glad that he doesn't have pain anymore. Cancer is evil. ken had lung cancer and copd which was compounded by covid which he got when he went in hospital for the first time . It just had him in a out of the hospital since late last year and it has been down hill since. when there was nothing left to do they kept him comfortable till he passed.

Paint fun Nite***********

My grands and my daughter, Jen had a fun nite painting. Every one is different. I LOVE THE PENQUINS.

THEY are so cute.
you can see the expression in their eyes.
this was done after many try's she decided to make a blended background. she then decided to add the flowers. Pretty good for a 10 year old. maybe she takes after grandma.
this was done in the boho style. Simple shapes and lines. very pleasing
finally my daughter did this one.............she showed talent in high school, but she was a nurse but she went on and just became a nurse practioner.
finally,
I have been making gnomes the bodies are either pill bottles or soda or anything I

think will work
