Tyler Posey was so awesome on The Masked Singer. He was so sweet & humble.

I love this show. I'm watching season 10 now. I'm on the episode where the singers sing One Hit Wonders.

Whenever he would stop by to help me out around my place, or, just to visit, he'd grab my notepad & draw. He took a few of his drawings with him, and, left a couple for me. I miss him dearly. I loved how he & my eldest sister got along. There was so much love between them. He's definitely missed. πŸ₯°

One of my really good friends, Stephen, wrote something extremely beautiful in one of my art notepads! I haven't used it much, so, to my surprise, it was inside my notepad all this time. He passed away a few years ago. 😒 Addiction gets the best of people. I felt like he was next to me as I read it.πŸ₯°

I think that's why I failed college algebra & math over & over until I took geometry, Artist's Perspective. I was then able to understand numbers more clearly. I'm actually extremely grateful to my college for finding a way to help me/ many of us pass our math classes! I had a great time in college.

I'm the type of person who needs everything explained to me & shown to me before I can fully comprehend something. Especially when it comes to math & science.

I need to be hands-on, too. For instance, if someone was trying to teach me how to make & build a birdhouse, I'd have to be hands-on!!!

OK! I'm not the smartest person in my family or within my circle of friends, but while watching YouTube, a person showed us reasons why we shouldn't hold our cellphones while they are charging! Yes, I understand electricity, but I didn't realize how dangerous it was to hold our phones when charging.

Many of my aunties & uncles love a certain animal, so I can envision an entire collection of children's books with different animals honoring my mommy's siblings. It's been upon my heart for a long time now. I just need to map out each person & animal & storyline.

It's one of my lifetime dreams.πŸ™πŸΌπŸ§

Yes. Life is The Yellow Brick Road. There are so many side roads & side road attractions. There are many different routes through backroads & secret tunnels to get to the magical world of faeries & various cities, but we always end up back on The Yellow Brick Road. It's the road to & from home.

My best friend, Marla, her dad LOVED Bob Dylan. He was always telling me stories about his family while playing his music.

I remember him telling me: Bob Dylan is one of the world's greatest poets, too. Man, I really love his poetry & music. His music is so great.

Lord, the gentleman who lives in the houses behind me somewhere is sick. His coughing is extremely brutal.😒I pray for him every day. I pray that he has good doctors looking out for him. I pray for his family & caretakers. I pray that every cell in his body dissolves all sickness. Bless him, Lord.πŸ™πŸΌπŸŒ…πŸ™πŸΌ

I'm not exactly sure what a #moonbow is, but, similar to a rainbow but with moon glow!

I read online about the Blood Moon & they mentioned that there will be a moonbow, too.

I will be asleep when it happens, but, I hope someone takes photos & shares online.

Then, we pass many restaurants & stores along the way & I pray for every single person in those buildings as well. Why? Because, I genuinely care about the welfare of others. I hope that the chains of addiction will break their hold on people & that they will seek help & walk a new pathway in life.πŸ™πŸΌ

There are a few different places where the homeless gather. I pray for them every single day. I pray that they are warm, healthy, well & that they receive the help that they need to get back on their feet. I know addiction is at the center of many people who are homeless at certain parks & programs.
