Sorry I've been delinquent posting these, it's been a very busy (Harm's graduation and 21st birthday, youngest niece's dance's recital) and painful month (pinched nerve in neck that affected my left arm and it hurt to hold anything in my left hand, which is the hand that use to hold books, kindle, ipod, etc, and had to have physical therapy and meds for that.) Ok enough of that on to the Doodles, there's a lot, so I'm breaking them up in to ten each to a post.....
