3 Days of Doodles

I love to doodle.

I even like to color.

It may be the only way I was able to stay awake in school and now in meetings.

There was a study w-a-y back in 2009 that said that, "subjects given a doodling task while listening to a dull phone message had a 29 percent improved recall compared to their non-doodling counterparts." (source)

I don't need an excuse for doodling.

I even used a doodle in a post not that long ago.

I feel like I have discovered a whole world of other doodlers this week and it has inspired me to doodle more.

I was writing in my planner one thing I was thankful for a day; without success.

I am not saying I will doodle all that more often but maybe the days that words escape me I will doodle it instead.

On Doodle a Day - Miracle in a Can

Do you doodle? 

The Prompts: 4.) I love this idea of an art journal, try it (or have your child try it) and share your creation!

Northeast Ohio Bucket List for March 7 - 17, 2014

All events are added at my own discretion. I received complimentary tickets to the  Cleveland Home + Remodeling Expo and the kids and I will be attending Disney Live!, Piston Power Show and I-X Center Amusement Park as their guests. 
Opinions are my own. If you would like to be added to this list or to become a sponsor feel free to contact me.

Seems like Cleveland is finally waking up from the deep freeze!  I keep saying this but I keep hoping that it will just stop snowing!  I promise to spend nearly every weekend at the beach or pool in the hopes of warming up after this winter.

Our calendar is at the end with all of what we would like to do in March if we had unlimited time and money.  Some are free most not but be sure to call all events prior to attending - I won't be held accountable for changes because I am at their mercy as much as you.

If you like this post, please share and if you go to any I'd love to hear about it either here, on Facebook, twitter or g+.  Don't forget to check out the giveaways at the end!

Word(less) Wednesday: Getting Older is Hard

I Have a Voice for Blogging

Source  /  By Alejandro Escamilla

"You have a face for radio."

I think about that sometimes when I am blogging.

I write to be creative and because I was not as good as I needed to be at drawing and photography.  Goodness knows I can't sing to save my life

I tried.

My talent was in commercial art but before Photoshop.  I am positive if Photoshop was a class when I was in high-school, I would have gone down a whole other career path.

I was told that I write like I speak.  I disagree but only by a little.  I am nicer when I write than in person.  I think my voice as a writer is thoughtful but I do tend to rush a bit.  In real life I tend to say the wrong things but with the right intention.  I guess I do write like I speak.
