Friday Face OFF

 Hi Everyone!

 Please listen to Fats Domino. 
 Just for a second. 

Yep, I am walking. Not perfectly yet still half of my foot is numb and my ankle is still very stiff. However, I can feel and move my toes. I have been scrunching a towel everyday and the feeling came back. YAY. Fat's Domino was one of my favorites growing up and his face is my feature for Friday Face Off FFO.

I did get this finished.


I do have to repaint the can and it will be ready for paint brushes.
 I did some sketching this last week too and hopefully I can get them finished up. 
Here is my dragon for today. How can you not love this face? 
No photo description available.

This week Vivian Foo is FFO feature. She joins us from FB.


I will also be linking up with Gillena.


I am off to walk through my house with tennis shoes. Happy day. Now it's your turn to show me your face.

Nicole

That is great news about your foot Nicole, and about walking. Slow and steady, right? I am sure you want to be back up fully on your feet (I would) and even with covid I found my patience to be pushed. That can looks like a great start.Have a super weekend. hugs-Erika

Vivian Foo said...

Hope you feel better soon. Thanks for featuring my work.

Rostrose said...

Thank you for the musical performance, dear Nicole - now I'm completely elated! 😊 Fats Domino, that was really great music! And I'm very happy that YOU are walking again!!!
Your new brush can and your dragon are also very nice.
Have a nice day!
Hugs again, Traude

Fats Domino is perfect for you. Walking! Hoorah!

Rita said...

So very glad to hear this!!
Turn the music up loud and keep on walking. :) :)

Oh, now that song will be in my head all day, at least it is a great song to be “stuck” with. Fats was one of my faves also, great energy in him.
Also, THE CAN, omg the can, I see knitting needles would be good in it too, like spikey hair…….making me snicker just thinking about it. But he/she would have to be yellow I think to be at my house, red is perfect for you.
Take care and keep making progress, Mr M’s cooking surely has a lot to do with it, hooray for our wonderful partners. Donna

Fats Domino says it all … I listened to the whole song and loved it. It’s been a long time since I heard that, and it’s a perfect celebration of your VICTORY over your own foot! I am really happy for you.
