Coloring and Hobonichi Cousin

[@GrannyGarbage]

I have the pattern coloring book as well!! LOVE it! I use alcohol markers, colored sharpies and gelly roll (.07) pens! When I get an artsie fartsie brain fluff… I accent with acrylic markers! I color like a beginner, but stress relief it is!

One of my dogs is obsessed with paper shredding. I hate cleaning it up but she gets such joy out of it I can’t bring myself to stop her. lol. She’s so good with everything else so I just deal with it.

[@talksfromtheheart]

Wow you’re patient! I still Haven’t cleaned it up haha

My puppy is turning 1 this month and he just started doing good potty a couple of months ago. I was stressed out too and was on the verge of returning him. My previous dog was also the best trained dog, even my friends said so. Have fun with Charlie! ❤❤❤

[@talksfromtheheart]

Thank you for sharing this. I needed to hear it in the midst of the crappy part of getting a puppy.

[@vickylin5126]

@@talksfromtheheart it will get better as Charlie get older.

I feel the same way with adult coloring books, and I couldn’t figure out why, because I love to draw. So I found a coloring app and it’s so much fun! Love seeing Cooper & Charlie.

Oh Charlie! Soooo cute! I have a Yorkie! He’s 4 years old now and he was named after your “boyfriend”! Cooper! I love him! Yorkies are cuddly, smart and notorious paper stealers! Don’t leave toilet paper within reach or you may not have any just when needed the most!😅. Lots of patients needed too! They can have selective hearing. ❤❤❤❤ yes, just love on him and he will be your best buddy for life.

Haha thx!

I remember when I was going through the puppy stage with my dogs. There were times I got frustrated. When that happened I started telling myself ‘this to shall pass.’ It helped my mental health immensely. You got this girl!

Thanks😍

[@ChiquisJ70]

Oh my goodness!! You just don't know how much I enjoy your videos! You always put a smile on my face ☺ You crack me up LOL ♥

[@TheSchnoodlemom]

Oh my goodness. We got a puppy 1yr. ago. She ate my past planner inserts, buries everything she thinks is special in the woodchips. If my husband and I go missing, check the backyard! She has gotten better during the year. I also had to change my mindset and remember she was a baby. Now I feel so much better about her quirks. Hang in there.

[@talksfromtheheart]

Thx so much!

[@jackiebee5715]

I started coloring as well. So much fun

[@BellaObear]

Aww Charlie is so so cute.🥰 I know the feeling of the potty training. I would have liked to have thought of the bell system 😁 I too have been coloring those type of books. It’s been several months that I started using those and I too am loving it. I always enjoy watching all the cute stickers you purchase.👍😁💕🙏

[@catewatrous2131]

Thanks!

[@talksfromtheheart]

Thank you very much!

[@patriciadimarco8378]

So fun. The water based markers are better with small spaces.

[@shaustin22]

If you don’t look back you don’t see the good memories. ❤

[@scraycee6438]

I think it’s the season. A couple weeks ago I became obsessed with calm, cozy coloring books. Color by numbers is also really calming to me, because I don’t have to stress about what color to use. Those mandala adult coloring books stress me right the heck out with what colors to use lol. I like to use colored pencils, but I think I’ll order those markers to check out. I wish I could find one I like in an a6 size so I can tip the pages in my planer after. Gilmore Girls is also my background comfort show! lol. I have been watching on repeat every year since it came out. Once the leaves start to turn for fall, it’s time to start the rewatch. Thank you for your videos, they are always a joy to watch and I love your sense of humor.

[@scraycee6438]

Oh my goodness, I just found out that coco wyo that does the coloring books you are enjoying, has an Etsy shop with tons of printable coloring books! I think I just solved my a6 issue by printing the pages to my size.

[@talksfromtheheart]

Wow! Fun! I’m curious if the black outline will bleed when using a regular printer.

[@scraycee6438]

@@talksfromtheheart I’m not sure. I did just order the alcohol markers that you linked and I’ll comment back here after I get them and test it.

[@dlmarsh1916]

There are loads of free coloring page printables on-line for anyone on a no spend month or year.

[@kathiesicurello9484]

I will tell you that their is a light at the end of the potty training tunnel. I also have a Charlie and he is almost 8 months old. I felt like it was never going to get it and I was going to be getting up every hour with him forever. Then one day it just started to get easier, he would tell me what he needed and not just pee on the carpet.

[@claudiad7957]

Just be thankful Charlie is not a 50 lbs. 6 month old GSD puppy going thru potty training. We got him a month ago, and he's doing ok, not perfect. His big sister's showing him how to signal for potty by nudging and going to the back door, but when he can't hold it... let's just say his bladder must be the size of a Great Dane's, lol.😂

[@Jolynn777]

Good morning, Robin! I'm (yes, I'll say it) obsessed with coloring also. I do prefer colored pencils and the easy pictures. I was up until 2am last night🫢There are worse things, right😂

[@talksfromtheheart]

Right!!!! So addicting
