ART SUNDAY

 

I was looking for the Monarch Butterflies drawing that I uploaded in the picfile document but it turned out only the one without the colors in it. Later.

I have other drawings for you to peruse just in case:

How I wish we can still go for boating but with the price of gasoline who wants to go? Our boat loads $500 worth of gas way back year 2012 2019 per 2 outings.  Gas was affordable before. Maybe this year it would cost $750 loads of gas  (2 outboards) depends on where to go in Browns Bay boating and fishing and back home, Gold River or farther away from Discover Passage or Quadra Island. The cheapest is fly fishing at the river or use kayak or canoe. Most of all it is cheaper to buy salmons and crabs at the supermarket. It is more cheaper to buy tilapia and milkfish, sana may galunggong dito. Missed ko na ang galunggong! Ha! At least nagtatagalog na ako ngayon kasi dinidelete ni Ai ang blog ko pag nagtagalog ako noon. Ha ha ha!

There are things that we have to optimized, there are options due to high cost of living. Going to downtown area takes only $10 by taxi and $10 back home by taxi. To drive with a vehicle which is too costly with pricey gas? Better to economize. CANADIANS are very frugal. They hold on to their money tightly. Kuripot sila. Hindi sila waldas ng waldas ng hard earned money. Hindi Pinas ang Canada na pulos show off ng show off. Pag maluho ka dito at parang millionaire or billionaire ka sa kaluhuan mo may radar dito ang RCMP. They check on your income tax. Kaya yung mga mansions ang mga bahay dito nireraid yan baka kasi mga drug cartels yan.

 It is true that an EV is more economically to drive nowadays because it doesn't cost much according to owners of EV especially if they charge their EV's in their own garage. Our neighbor has a Mustang and his EV Charging is less than $100's/month at Springtime and $200/month in Winter season. 

When my husband was working (before retirement) and using his Dodge Ram 4x4 truck he pays about $400+/month for gas. That was before year 2022. The price of gas now is $200 full tank ($2 per liter). Sometimes its up and down because of the war in Iran. It is a roller coaster thrill ride ever since. I know Trump is playing with the economy of the world like he is manhandling it wrong. Too much playing the cost of everything. CRAZY!

There was once a cartoon I used to watch with my children long time ago....it was Babar. So these elephants remind me of them.


LOL. The brown fox watching the marshmallows beside the campfire.

Having fun roasting?

I have too many things to do today such as: giving Raven a bath. Echo has to wait for her special shampoo which husband would buy next run to Superstore. Had pepperoni pizza for lunch and I baked a zucchini, blueberry/carrot cake today. I will be very busy before dinner cooking for more foods to serve my family. 

GOOD DAY & hope your days are worthy of good memories and praise.
