Hey y’all. I know I’ve been absent the last few days, but something horrible happened . . . my mojo walked right out of the studio and went who knows where! After trying to color with markers, reinkers, anything . . . . I gave up. I walked out of the studio and spent a few days sleeping and playing with the little shitzes.
It’s probably a good thing I did take a break, as my trigger thumb started acting up again last week and I had to go back to the doctor this morning. I had a cortisone shot 8 weeks ago on my thumb and middle finger and all was well. The middle of last week my thumb started acting up again and by the time I got into the doctor this morning, I was in excruciating pain. I received another cortisone shot this morning and I must say that my thumb is still rather sore. If this shot doesn’t take, it looks like surgery is the next option. I opted out of surgery this time because I’m heading to CHA and didn’t want to be messing with a thumb that didn’t work right the entire time. I guess it’s now a wait and see situation.
This afternoon I was getting somewhat itchy for the smell of ink and paper, and thought I would try searching for the mojo. I need a simple masculine card to send to my uncle (remember this post of my uncle in my pool) who is waging his own battle with cancer. I also wanted the card to be funny and not serious . . . laughs and humor are needed now. Here’s the card I came up with . . . . just enough to say hello and that I’m thinking of you.

So now that I’ve babbled on enough . . . . I hope you have a great day!
