2nd Chalk Your Walk Effort

Hello Joy Spreaders! MORE #chalkyourwalkomaha fun this week! I decided to draw one of my new gnomes that I recently painted in acrylic and sent to my agent. While I was out, two of my neighbors came over to see what the heck I was up to :-D Neither had heard of chalking your side walk for all the people walking the neighborhoods to get exercise. It was fun to explain to them and suggest that they could go for a drive to look for the art on the sidewalks and on front doors. Th

Our First Chalk Your Walk Drawings

Hello Joy Spreaders! THIS WAS FUN! I hope do do this again in a week. Favorite daughter Emily came over on her day off work to help me AND share in the fun. I love how bright the colors are in the new box of chalk I bought awhile back. I have another box coming from Amazon hopefully in time for our next sidewalk decorating this coming Wednesday, weather permitting. Who ever thought of this was so smart! It brightened our day so much and hope that it brightens yours as well. #

Neighborhood Creativity

Hello Joy Spreaders! The schools are closed. MANY people are working from home and social distancing as I write this because of the COVID-19 virus. I have the Nextdoor neighborhood app on my phone. Noticed a post suggesting we all make or print out a shamrock, post it on your front door or window so that the kids can go on a walk (or drive) scavenger hunt looking for shamrocks. (Video below) I had a lot of fun taking this break from my normal work day routine! Today, March 20

If you know someone in Omaha, even better! If you find "Chicken Scratch" fabric collection in a store, send me a photo! Thank
