Friday Flowers--Valentine's Day, How Do I Love Thee

I located this"Friday Flowers" comic strip of mine while posting the previous one a few weeks ago. Thought it was apprpro for the month of February and Valentine's Day. The captions read:

(Lucy-dog) Oh, how do I love my mama and daddy this Valentine's Day! Let me count thy ways.....one lick, two licks, three licks....
(Steve) Lucy, stop hogging mama. It's my turn!

Never met a man so jealous of a dog. Never met a dog so jealous of a man. It's great to be Queen!


Steve & I celebrated this Valentine's Day at The Cheesecake Factory eating salads and a "slice". We celebrated with Lucy by adding a new toy to her collection, giving her two raw quails and lots of heavy petting. Her "licks" were never-ending. She's such a happy dog!

Friday Flowers--Pile High Club

There is something magical about Flair Felt Tip Pens I have always loved since discovering them as a child. I don’t remember what it was but I know I have a real fondness for them. The grip is perfect for my hand, the tips flow smoothly when doodling and they do not have a knock-your-socks-off odor.

I’m a cheap date when it comes to making me happy (though there are times hubby might disagree). I like small, simple stuff--a package of Flair Felt Tip Pen/Markers fits the bill. In fact, when I received my last Staples Reward Certificate, guess what I purchased? For some strange reason, I cannot have too many Flairs, especially with all the nifty colors.

I have been nursing a migraine this week and unable to produce any art. I located my comic strip entitled “Friday Flowers” created with a marker back in 2003.

We were all sick the week I drew this one, especially Lucy. She was having difficulty getting adjusted to a new brand of dog food. Come to find out later she was allergic to corn/grains which would lead me down a road to feeding her human food--will save that for another blog post though.

The caption to my Friday Flowers comic strip above reads:

You’ve heard of the Mile High Club? Well, mama always calls our household the “Pile High” Club!
