Good Monday (10.31.16) morning! Thanks, Facebook, for holiday emoticons. Everyone enjoys the informational, pictorial, tiny pictures that express what we feel and what we want to do!
I created Duggie (pronounced Do-gee) sometime
this spring or summer, but actually I created his face years before, and he is
in my tubes in my graphics program. When
I added the body, it was because he was a stick character with an awesome
facial expression and simple to pose and repose as I wished.
As you know, I do a FB page for my family
group. I am scrapping all the pictures,
on my computer and my physical pictures, that belong to all those in my
family. It takes a great deal of my
early morning (starting around 1:30 am) and goes to just about noon every day. By then, I am tired, and have already been
working ten and a half hours. Some days,
it’s longer.
Like everyone, I’m captivated by Snapchat as
well as emoticons, so Facebook did something I love with creating special
Halloween emoticons!
Well, Duggie wanted to create his own emoticons
for his own use, and I’m glad he did.
You can see them in the creation above.
Duggie’s feeling emoticons are: HIGH 5 instead
of just LIKE. His face picture with a
heart behind for LOVE, OMG (his hands covering his eyes to push that feeling),
Kiss this (remembering the song from several years ago) with him bent over and
an arrow point to the kiss location, CRY with tears streaming down his face for
sad, and BS for a mad, mad Duggie.
Duggie’s LIKE is OK! Nonchalant-style, his COMMENT is “Let’s
Talk!”, TEXT ME with a small text box and talk balloons inside, RIP (NOT on
line) is an action for not responding at all (no FB symbol for this) and is
just to add humor, and that’s a trash basket which a lot of older people
recognize for junk mail and always called the basket File 13, and IT IS
FILED! I thought of making a SHARE icon,
with Duggie flying a folded paper airplane with the words SHARED IN THE SKY (or
cloud or something).
Basically just having a good time playing … and sharing that
with you.
By the way: I want to
apologize for NO post on last Friday. I
went to my daughters at about 1 pm, visited a bit, had another friend show up
there so visited some more, and then came home.
My granddaughter said two things I want to remember:
While we were
waiting on our visitor to arrive, E wanted to play the game we played last time
I came over. Unfortunately, I didn’t have my money jars as
they are H-E-A-V-Y. So she did like the game!!!
Second, as I was
leaving, dear 6-year old E said, “I wish you lived here with us, Grandma!” How sweet!
My daughter said she continued to talk about that for hours
after I left. Then texted me that she
continued to talk several more days about it.
She sent me a webpage for Granny Pods that are small “tiny homes” you
put in your backyard, and said, “Hey. We
need this!” Ha! Ha!
She’s right!!!
As I left, I realized I needed to get some gasoline for the
car, but my stomach was queasy and I had a headache, so I went straight
home. A fever started, I got the chills
and covered myself with lots of blankets in bed, and had sciatica in both
cheeks and both legs and it was flaming!
I couldn’t eat or even consider eating.
I couldn’t concentrate on TV and kept falling asleep because even my
eyes hurt. This went on for 2 days, and
then the “runs” joined in. This was an
embarrassing addition.
By Saturday, I made myself get up and walk around as the
fever and chills were gone, but still had the headache, nausea, diarrhea, and
just plain “pooped” (ahem). I thought it
would also help my legs hurt less. I
also forced a little food inside me.
I also had some pain pills from earlier this year, and I
took 2 or 3 of those over the first two days.
The pain in my legs and cheeks were awful!
By Sunday, I was back to being normal.
So, I couldn’t do much while I was OUT … so I had to let the
post go for that day. Please forgive me.
