Don’t Worry
Years ago I did a daily drawing for a couple years in a row. Just a simple pen drawing to go with a song or the day or a book.
I have many sketchbooks in a box downstairs and I’m kind of proud of them. It started as a wait to fill my time in Cleveland, something new for a time when I was new in Cleveland and didn’t have much to do.
I made a set of negatives a while ago. Flipped the colors to make mostly dark or black drawings to use as computer backgrounds.
One of my favorites… Don’t Worry I’ll Catch You. I think it’s from a Get Up Kids song.

Family
I’ve been reading some of my old entries. Like 2008 entries. Which is 17 freaking years ago.
Most of them come across as depressing. The first year and half in Cleveland was not the brightest time of my life.
I did come across one where I wrote about PJ, and family, and the hopes an older sibling can have for a younger sibling. You never stop wanting the best for them.
It was an interesting read.
Anyways, it’s been a good start to the day. I didn’t sleep too well, but got out of bed and ran 3 miles. Finished the movie Troy – I was running on the treadmill watching a DVD.
Now I get to sit peacefully for a few minutes before anyone else wakes up. I’m going to get back to my book (Wheel of Time Book 5 – The Guess of Heaven).
Do we need a snowblower…
I shoveled 3-4 inches of snow in about 20 minutes. Cleared off our cars, walkways, and mailbox in another 5 – 10 minutes.
Which isn’t bad and wasn’t stressful. But if we got more than just a few inches, or we aren’t home when it snows and come back to snow – say after being at my parents for a week for Christmas, it’s a pain to shovel.
We were thinking about a cheaper plug in one. They’re lightweight and easy to store.
The kid in me says no I’ve got this. The adult in me say think it through. You’ll eventually want it.
Snow Day
It snowed a few inches last night. In Ohio that’s practically a snow emergency.
Anyways, school is cancelled so the girls get to sleep in. I got up and ran a few miles on the treadmill. I’m watching Troy while I run. It’s been almost a decade since I last saw it and it still holds up pretty well
A quiet morning with snow…. I’ll take that.
