FFO Thanksgiving

Hi, I'm writing this post on Wednesday. Why, you ask? Before I answer let me tell you about the turkey first.
I don't know when turkeys became so darn expensive and I can never find a small one. So, Mr. M. and I were just not going to have turkey dinner. Fred Meyers and Safeway give a free turkey with $100.00 purchase of food. 
That is a ripoff!!!
My neighbor told me that at Grocery Outlet gave turkeys as low as $35.00 store purchase. The more money you spend the less the price to free. I got a few things there and was offered a 15lb turkey for $3.99. Now that is a big turkey for us but I couldn't pass it up. Soooo yes, I'm cooking tomorrow, hence the early write up.
If you are cooking for tomorrow what are you preparing? I really would like to know, just write it in the comments.
Now for FFO
Yeahhhhh no time this week. So AI will have to suffice.  
When writing my description I wanted to show bounty for Thanksgiving.
We have a lot to be thankful for and I hope all of you feel that way too.
Wishing all of you the very best 
each and every day
Now for some features.

Monday Post

 Hi Everyone!
I hope all of you had a wonderful weekend and if you live in the US you are ready for a good thanksgiving. Mr. M. and I have much to be thankful for, but it's an everyday thing not just once a year. :) Mr. M. is healing well and walking better each day. He still gets very tired and that has to do with, now, only having one kidney and still being anemic. Which is probably his new normal. 
I walked into my art room today for the first time in many months. It felt lonely and a bit cold. It's time to get in clean it up a bit and start creating again. 
The door to my art room
Welcome

 I don't know if I showed you my big skeleton. I got her last year on sale from $100.00 50% off and then I had a coupon so I got it for $20.00. She is 5' tall. I just love her.


I have bags of skulls that need to be worked on. This is just one of the hanging. I love making monsters.
 

You can see gorgi sitting above the hanging sculls in the photo above. Here is a close up. I love that the wings, arms, legs and mouth all move. 




 The baskets and bags have sculls and skeletons in them. Plus the larger sculls. Oh a couple of dragons sitting up there too.


 

 

 These sculls are actually quite large.


 
Here are the dragons.
 


 This is a sign I got for all the apothecary bottles I made. For display at shows. 2 spirit dolls on each side.

 I get these signs at the $ store. They are well maked and the graphics are great.


These are the 2 that I kept for myself.
 

 They watch over my room


What's an art room without a foot hanging around. LOL
 

 I had this framed and hanging by my front door. I noticed it's getting wrinkled so I have to iron it and then re frame it. I will hang it some where else in the house. I don't remember when I drew this.

 
 I guess that is it for now. I better get dinner going and then watch a scary movie with 
Mr. M.

FFO WAY Busy week

 

 Welcome To Friday Face OFF (FFO)

This is the place to show off your faces or your face. Post any type of face from any medium. You can create it, or find it in nature, or even that face in the design of you 
woodwork in your house. 
Human, animal, alien, or monster. 
ANY KIND OF FACE!
 
It's been a busy week with Mr. M. but things are looking up. His X-Ray came back with perfect results on his ankle. The bones have healed and the doctor was excited about how it all looked. Told Mr. M. he could start wearing a shoe and walking very slowly on the treadmill. Hurrraaayyy... we needed some good news.
The treadmill, however, has 2 chairs and some boxes in front of it until Friday. The thrift store is coming to pick it all up. In the mean time Mr. M. is walking in the house. What a relief. 
 
Here is the last drawing I did when Mr. M. was in hospital. I have sketched a few faces since I have been home. I am hoping to get them drawn up. Time and just being worn out leaves me not able to draw.
Another good thing, for the last few days, workers have been here putting in a new fence. It looks so sharp. 
Yes, it's dark and raining here.
 
 
Here are a few AI I may have shown these before.
I love his face.
 
Now it's time for a few features.

Friday Face OFF sighhhhh...

 

Blogger is not playing nice so FFO is early. Better than late.

I start this post with a huge sighhhh.. and not one of relief. The US is now a fascist county. The people of this country have no idea what is about to happen. Ohh it is already in progress. With the house, the senate and the supreme judges belonging to "him" we are screwed. I read and then fact checked that google search for how to change my vote spiked, especially in red states. Dumb asses. They knew what they were voting for, now we will all suffer for it.
If you live in a different country know that you are watching a history that will change the world. If you live in the US get prepared.
OK enough of that.
Another sighhhh... one of relief. I had to send Mr. M. to the ER by ambulance yesterday. His BP has been dropping and yesterday dropped to the point of him almost passing out. After many tests and hydration. It turns out that Mr. M. has an infection and was dehydrated. Seriously, the guy drinks 6 bottles of water a day plus other drinks. We finally got home with him feeling better and another dose of antibiotics. Can I say exhausted? LOL
We are doing fine today.
Now for some FFO.
Here is another face I drew while Mr. M. was in hospital. I noticed that the drawings I did in hospital are not great. Details not finished.
It is what it is though.
I found this site that sells bedding quilts.
 I love this


and this one
 
and this one
 
There are all kinds of quilt sets not just skulls and they are not all black. 

Here are some features this week.
