A mouse’s one true love.

When hanging up my 2024 calendar, I accidentally had it open to December and left it that way. It took me until later the next day to notice my mistake.
As it is, I have unfinished business with 2024–that is, I still need to finish Inktober! And then I’ll see what else the new year brings.

Last year’s Christmas card: “Gingerbread Snack Attack.” Don’t pre-eat all your Christmas goodies! One more day!

Inktober 14: Roam
“You’re getting warmer…no, colder…still colder…freezing cold…ice cold…you’re in the Arctic…!”
Remember the hot and cold game as a kid? I play it a lot with misplaced objects.

Happy Halloween!
This was last year’s final Inktober drawing. Inktober 2024 may be officially coming to an end, but I’ll be continuing to post for the prompts I haven’t completed yet. So look for more Inktober comics!
To everyone who is posting their final drawing today: Congratulations! You made it! …And now you have a pen permanently welded to your fingers!

Inktober 9: Sun
I am one of those people who burns after about five minutes in the sun, so this is not a far exaggeration of what I look like outdoors during the summer.

As it turns out, I’ve been napping a lot more than drawing over the last few days. This cold has been nasty. I am way behind on Inktober at this point, but I’m just going to pick up where I left off and keep going until I finish. It’s been nice to have everyone else’s Inktober entries to scroll through on Instagram to keep me entertained, and I’ve enjoyed cheering from sidelines. We can do it!

Inktober 6: Trek
🎶Star Trekkin’ across the universe
Boldly going forward ’cause we can’t find reverse🎶
My contribution to the collection of Star Trek references for this prompt.
A cold has put me behind, but I’m drawing in between long naps.

Inktober 3: Boots
What else lives in your boots, besides your feet? If you’re not careful, before long, it may start painting cave art down inside the toes. And if your boots reach the point of hosting an industrial revolution, you may as well just give up and get a new pair….

Inktober 1: Backpack
It’s that time of year again!
Look out–it’s a dinosaur riding a giraffe, being chased by a lion! I immediately thought of my husband playing with our niece and nephew when I saw this prompt. In spite of making an excellent galloping giraffe (which occasionally transmuted into a draft horse, and back again), I think Uncle Shaun would like to have traded in his knees by the end. 😁
