Being the strange year that it is, I decided to add some car flags to my shop to help people celebrate graduates, say thank you to healthcare workers, and encourage people to vote blue.
Rainbow thank you items also include car magnets, stickers, and gift tags:
Created Custom Employee Photo Medical ID Badges in new color variations including dark red, blue, and blue-green:
See the rest of the new versions in this collection:

And a new vote blue face shield with white text on a tinted blue:
And finally, I created a Bold Navy Blue and White Buffalo Plaid Pattern Business Card (the pattern is on the back side of the card):

How was your week? I hope you are healthy and well. Stay safe.

Miss Piggy's Treasury of Art Masterpieces from the Kermitage Collection
17. Miss Piggy's Treasury of Art Masterpieces from the Kermitage Collection by Michael FrithMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
If you love art and The Muppets, in particular Miss Piggy, I highly recommend this book! Had I read this as a kid I would've missed so many of the jokes or taken it too seriously. Reading it now as an adult was perfect, a delightful discovery in the home library. So much fun!

Today's Many Sightings
Today's sightings: purple and white iris reticulata blooming, Rosco lying on the grass in his yard on my 2nd lap. Fortunately his owner was standing nearby, saw me and said, "You stay right there," to Rosco for which I was much appreciative since he was off-leash. I didn't mean to be rude, but I didn't even glance over to them because I didn't want to trigger Rosco's usual charge to come say hello.
At the bottom of the hill, I stopped on the bridge to look down a shaded creek and saw a large dark bird swoop down. The silhouette didn't look like a crow, and then it seemed to land in the water at the bend. I took a few steps to see better and it was paddling along the surface of the water. A duck!
At least that seemed most likely. It was pretty far away and I didn't have my glasses with me. But then I saw it in profile. Yup. Duck.
Meanwhile there was some incessant chirping that sounded like it was from smaller birds going on. I hadn't seen them but started looking at the rocks in the creek closer to me. Then I caught the movement: two little ducklings that were silhouetted in the shade about twenty feet away.
I bet it's them chirping their heads off because mama flew about fifteen feet downstream past the shallows with rocks (where the babies were) to where the water's a bit deeper.
I watched the ducklings float around, chirping away, until finally they started to swim forward around the rocks. There were a bunch of rocks showing above the water because the brook was shallow there, so there were little eddies the baby ducks had to navigate. In no way would you call it rapids, but I found myself thinking it was still probably pretty scary for them to forge ahead.
All the while, mama patiently swam around saying nothing.
When the little ducks were mostly through the ten feet of shallow rocky section, the chirping stopped. They must be able to see mama, I thought to myself.
