Illustration Friday: impatience


Instead of complaining about "impatience" the word that is chosen for Illustration Friday's theme today, I have decided to take the plunge. I know it sounds rather drastic but for some reason "impatience" pushed me over the edge. Farewell my friends, it has been grand.

Well, Val!

I hope those long but nice feet move straight forward!

And if they fall, I hope they roll slowly down stairs!

Ha ha, Val! My heart lurched for a brief moment then I got it... :) Clever and great illo. Also I want to thank you for your fabulous comments at my blog...you are so encouraging to me and though we're technically only "blog buddies", I think you have a beautiful personality and are a great friend! I am doing much better right now. My divorce was final in early July. I think I'm gonna be just OK. :) Thanks again for your support! TRACY

I remembered the time when I like to to jump down from the stairs and each time I jump, I would go up one more step and jump, the highest I tried was 4 steps. Too scary...I suggest you think twice before you jump. I like the little window on the stairs.
