12 of 12: May Edition

First, you go here. (But then be sure to come back.)

7AM

Lately, I've been turning off my alarm clock in my sleep since I've no one to kick me in the face otherwise.

8AM

What did I ever do before I had a CD player in my car?

9AM

On Fridays at work just call me Mr. Clean.

10AM

WorkWorkWork.

11AM

Golden Delicious.

12PM

If I don't hold my headphones they fall off my head.

1PM

$6.49 Shoes.

2PM

Circumstantial evidence.

3PM

School buses now have AIR CONDITIONING. What's the world coming to. Why, in my day... I didn't ride the bus.

4PM

The long-armed monkey in the wild reaches for his native food: cookies.

5PM

Somewhere there must be a saying about brotherly love that involves grocery carts, sulking, and downtrodden bananas.

6PM

Beware the macaroni thief that strikes at sunset.

Now think about doing your own next month.

Peace,
Alden

Beautiful pieces, each one.

Brilliant! You know I always love to look at what you've done new artwise and those are just lovely.

I hope that you and the Mac thief and the long armmed one have a great weekend!

The more I look at your colorful sketches, I've decided that I really do have a favorite. The macaroni thief at sunset is just incredible. I love the eyes of the little monkey peeking over the table.

I'm sorry, I keep coming back to this post. (Although, I have been one of your long-time blog readers.) It has really moved me that you would spend so much time on this one day in your life, and then share it with me(us).

It is truly incredible, and you are an amazing artist.

I miss your writing, because you are terribly gifted in that way as well, but your art is something to behold.

Thank you, Alden. You've blessed so many of our lives.

Hugs to the monkeys.

Peace to you as well.
