A Year of Drawings

On April 1, 2021May 10, 2021 By nanasworldwebIn Art and Drawing, Uncategorized17 Comments

Because drawing always makes you feel better. Now that Foster and Panda have shared their "year of masks" with you, I thought I would share my "year of drawings". Because it hasn't only been about masks. This past year was one of changes, emotions, and new routines. And one of the best ways I have …

The Day the Washing Machine Broke Down

On October 15, 2020 By nanasworldwebIn Uncategorized11 Comments

(With my apologies to people who really know how to do math.) This is the note that started it all. (Teachers, beware: You never know how literally your students are going to take what you tell them.) When Mrs. Halley, my seventh and eighth grade English teacher, wrote the above note in 1971 or 72, …

All right, I've HAD IT!! Actually, Mom's the one who's "had it." I'm just helping out because all her photos are on her old computer and she hasn't figured out how to transfer them over to her new one yet. Thank goodness she has lots of photos of me in her WordPress image gallery! You …

At least I think it's Part 3... To be honest, I'm making this post in order to practice using the "new" WordPress Block Editor. I have been putting it off, and finally decided to try it out today. But I figured I needed to start with something simple, so since I had "Pets From the …

So if your washing machine is kind of old... ...you might one day start a load of wash, only to discover that your washer has filled up with water but will not agitate or spin. What you have to do is lift the lid up a little bit and let it drop down (often more …

A Shred of Evidence

On July 8, 2020 By nanasworldwebIn Uncategorized21 Comments

So Mom decided to shred some stuff... You may remember from our post "Social Distancing With Foster and Panda" that one thing Mom has been doing while staying home is shredding stuff. With all this extra time on her hands, she decided it was the perfect time to organize. Or "declutter", if you will.I guess …

How many pandas can you find? You've seen this before, if you've read "Pandas and Penguins," which was one of my early posts, dated July of 2016. This drawing was originally done in September of 2011. There are actually 53 hidden pandas to find! To help out all you coloring fans who are sheltering in …

Half the Fun in Life

On April 13, 2020 By nanasworldwebIn Uncategorized28 Comments

"Half the fun in life is teasing you!" If I had a quarter for every time I heard that phrase in the years between 1992 and 2016, I would probably be rich by now. Anyone who knew Mark Tracy knows exactly what I mean. Looking back, being teased for those 24 years is one of …

Hi all, Foster here with your sneak preview of our upcoming post, where Mom tells you about pets from the past. And these are really from the past! I mean pets from the way past, like before Mom was even born! This is Smokey. He was Grandma's cat in 1951. He looks like he would …

Just “Felt” Like It

On August 21, 2019August 21, 2019 By nanasworldwebIn Uncategorized6 Comments

I've always liked felt. Felt is a handy material to make things out of, partly because it doesn't fray when you cut it out, partly because it comes in so many colors, and it is relatively cheap. And you can make so many cute things out of it! Granted, I enjoy looking at felt ideas …
