Thursday Art Date: What A Mess!


Hello Friends! 😊😊

Welcome to Thursday's Art Date, today our theme is What A Mess! Poor Bugs isn't feeling quite himself today. He's a mess! 😊 A little too much of the jolly juice...oh I've been there! 😊

Thanks so much to everyone for your foodie suggestions last week, they were all brilliant. I feel so relieved knowing that Alex and I won't suffer too much without refrigeration for the first few weeks after we move! Shopping day was yesterday so I'm spending the next few days cooking and canning!


We are living in quite a mess ourselves. But somehow Oscar has found a comfy spot during all of this! The futon mattress actually fell over onto the tires...and it became a cat bed lol...When I saw this I couldn't stop laughing. Cats can find a bed pretty much anywhere!


We've had some early spring snowstorms here in the mountains, but a few days a week we have such lovely sunny days! The girls love this weather, they sit out on top of the snow for hours!


Jack prefers the porch! 😊

That's all for now folks! Please check out the link widget below to see more What A Mess! artwork!

  1. Love the photos os your furry family friends. My cat used to sit in the laundry basket, or on top of a pile of books. They always find a comfy place. Glad everything is well underway for you, good luck with the preps. Bubs look like he had a night on the tiles! Stay well and safe, hugs, Valerie

  2. I am happy to read that you are cooking and processing for your supplies after the move.
    The bunny is drawn in a great scene again, the poor.
    Your animals I like your photos what they do ... cats and dogs.

    Greetings Elke

  3. Love your artwork.
    My father always said if you want to find the most comfortable place in the house follow the cat and see where it settles. He had a point.
    Stay safe, stay well - and leave the carrot juice to Bugs.

  7. The jolly juice. Hahahah. I never heard that saying before. It cracks me up. Jolly juice.

    Glad you and Alex feel that you won’t suffer. So many fun foodie options for the travels, even without the fridge. One year, but this was a cold North Winter … our fridge died. We took coolers and planted them on the back deck, which was surrounded my snow. It worked so well. Then inside, I made stuff that didn’t need to be kept cold. Really, I tell you, I had a lot of fun with it.

    Hahaha, on the cat finding a new bed. Pets are the best.

    Jack looks content on his porch. Ours our in the office with me now. I love dogs. THIS MUCH!

    Stay well, be safe and have fun, Rain. Cheers and boogie boogie.

  11. Not only are you packing and planning the move. You have a lot of "helpers" too. :) And, cats, yes, they can sleep pretty much everywhere.

    Take care, stay safe.

  18. Yes, Rain, cats do know how to relax anywhere and Oscar has the right idea and so does Jack! Glad to read that things are moving along and that you received a lot of suggestions on food storage. Hope all dcontinues to go well with the big move and glad to see the weather is slowly improving, even if I would not want to see piles of snow still around. Thankfully, we have none here now, just rainy and windy days.
