I’ve discovered, after working on an intricate coloring page, that I need about 30 more colors of pencils!
Once I get this thing finished (three days and counting, I think) I will mail it off...
Coloring is a good way to get my mind off the beastie starter that doesn’t want to work. Not everywhere I park is a hill...
mail it off?
I guess you don’t get your coloring books at the dollar store?
I do, on occasion, but mostly I print off the coloring pages that are available on here:

This way, I can print the ones I want, only. I don’t think I’ve ever had a coloring book where I wanted to color all the pictures...
It was a joke but now that we are on the subject, I haven’t sat down and colored anything in a very long time.
Walmart has BIG boxes of crayons and colored pencils as well as markers.
They have coloring books as well, but I like the ones at Dover, since many are very accurate historically (I have one of Medieval English characters whose apparel makes your eyes go all wonky!) and some are just plain fun.
I like the “stained glass” coloring books. TC sent me a book of stained glass steam punk, and it is a lot of fun to play with. Lowers your BP!
lol.
I’ll look into that, probably, some day
It’s OK if you don’t. Not everyone likes the pleasure of coloring. I just have to like the calmness I feel when I do it. :o])
I like to color, too. However, it seems as if one always needs more colors! I haven’t done much lately, seems like I’m always too tired in the evening.
I do most of my coloring during the day, and I realized it was because of the cataracts. I needed all the light I could get! Now, of course, it’s a challenge for a whole new set of reasons.
I have one eye with 20/20 vision and have to use reading glasses for close work and geeking. Trying to see and color with no glasses (which is how I WAS doing it) is a job for supermom, now!
But I’ve learned how to use one eye at a time, believe it or not! Weird, but true!
And the coloring is slow...
Cat Aract, a cat is sitting over your eyes.
When the "101 Dalmations" movie came out, they also released some coloring books.
Boy, that was a waste.
There is only one black and one white in any box of crayons...and Disney already colored the spots.
So I get my coloring pages from Dover Publications!
Some days, it was just that fuzzy! LOL!
But never as cute I bet.
True! LOL!
I received parts for my car a few minutes ago.
Set the box down, then went to toss teh box out.
Every time I make a move towards the box, the cat jumps into the box and glares at me.
Your cat hasn’t finished its “mouse-smell” inventory.
If church people have been nagging you, they need some serious reawakening. Just tell me where to direct what-fors!
Best to be aware....
I adore battleaxes!
