A ha so this is the last day of the April A to Z challenge.
How was it for you?
I looked back briefly on a few of my precious A to Z challenges:
One challenge I had planned on illustrating a month of my dragon stories. I broke my wrist one month before the challenge so my dominant hand was useless. I started drawing with my non-dominant hand . During April I slipped on ice (again) so all of my arms and legs were out of commission. So with Co-vid “Stay at Home” I could at least walk around and water my plants.
The picture below shows my dragon bowl that I drew with my non-dominant hand and then the other 2 were with my mouth.
When I saw the word Zest I thought of the saying A ZEST FOR LIFE. For whatever reason I always think of the elderly patients who I have cared for since I was a teen.
So my last encouragement as you care for and love an elderly family member be a little zestful. Encourage them to dream with you. Go somewhere you can both go – an imaginary somewhere. Maybe the land of Zenony!!!
I’ve enjoyed this month and meeting or reconnecting with people.
Each of you are gifted and delightful!!!
For those of you new to blogging i hope you are encouraged to blog more.
I’m not sure what my personal blog will look like but I am trying to develop a blog for Steve Slack. Steve is a friend who hopefully (if this Co-Vid thing gets tame) will have some of his work published and at least one script is lined up for a movie.

I used “zest” in my zeal poem today and I love your non-dominant drawing.

Hi Moonie – I’m just pleased I’m in that zest of life stage of aging … but breaking wrists … wanting to write, as well as draw – well I’d be in my bed waiting for April to go and then the wrist to heal … but congratulations on achieving as much as you have – stay safe … Hilary

I love the word zest and I am impressed that you can draw with your mouth so well. I have been dealing with a minor hand surgery for the last couple days, on my dominant right hand. The first day it hurt like a dickens but getting better. I hope your wrist will be okay, my step grandma had that surgery and it’s tricky.
