Musical May - Day 31 - You Raise Me Up

And there we have it, the final entry, and a rather sweet one, too. (I always like to end on a positive note.) Thanks, everybody; that was fun. See you next time! #Day31 of #MusicalMay.

Musical May - Day 30 - Rag Doll

The next-to-last entry, inspired by my favorite song from Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons. It's a simple enough song, but extremely catchy, with a heartfelt message about a girl who deserves heaps more love than she gets. Something we can all relate to. #Day30 of #MusicalMay.

 

Musical May - Day 29 - Piano Man

Now that there's a little more free time on my hands and I've had some rest, I was able to put a little more heart into this drawing and I really like it. I've always had a soft spot for Billy Joel. #Day29 of #MusicalMay.

P.S. By the way, I'm okay. I didn't mean to make my situation sound so dire. Like I said, work's been hectic lately; this is what happens when a lot of people quit within a short time of each other, albeit for valid reasons, like a new job or a new baby or moving. We did get a new girl just today and she looks like she may turn out all right. Only time will tell. 

Plus, my family did some early Memorial Day stuff yesterday since we won't be able to do them all on Monday, which just so happens to be my day off. So, no sooner did I get home and change my clothes than we went out to put flowers on Grandma and Grandpa's grave (that in itself is at least a 45-minute drive) and then we did the same for Dad's grave. My sister met us at both places with all four kids and her hubby, so naturally, we had to visit each other for a little while.

By the time we finally got home, it was well past 9:00 and we ended up getting dinner from Chick-fil-A, and I'd only had a few pieces of candy and crackers from the ride, soda and water from work, and a bowl of cereal at breakfast. Needless to say, I was on the verge of collapsing (almost literally) from hunger as well as fatigue.

Today was a bit easier. They let me go home as soon as we got through the breakfast rush; they probably sensed how tired I was and everybody knows how many hours I've been working lately. My boss even apologized to me for working me so much, praised me up and down for being such a trooper, and teased me, "With all this money you're getting, you should get yourself something nice!"

At least I am getting paid for this. And to think, I quit my previous job because I wasn't getting enough work. Go figure.

Musical May - Day 28 - Sunshine, Lollipops, and Rainbows

I had to rush this one because I wasn't home for the greater part of the day and I am positively beat. Work is murder these days...almost literally. 

At least I got to unwind a little and this was still a little fun to make. Kind of like the song itself: short, maybe a bit too short, but cute and decent. #Day28 of #MusicalMay.

Musical May - Day 27 - Hound Dog

I believe the lyrics speak for themselves! #Day27 of #MusicalMay.

Musical May - Day 26 - Abracadabra

Another drawing that exceeded expectations. I prefer the Sugar Ray version myself, but the Steve Miller Band version is rather cool as well. #Day26 of #MusicalMay.

Musical May - Day 25 - Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

One of my most favorite songs, and I REALLY love how this turned out! #Day25 of #MusicalMay.
