Today I went to the donation center and there were so many people!! It really amazed me because, even though I'd seen on social media that a lot of people were helping out, I'd never witnessed it in person.

My aunt had traveled to Caracas and was really scared because the building next door collapsed. But she was able to come back today! 🙌

My dad officially started speech therapy last week 🎉 He’ll have 2–3 sessions a month, plus homework. For now he still gets very tired after practicing, but he’s excited, and we hope to see some improvements soon. 🤞

I'm always dizzy, so at first I didn't realize what was happening until my mom told me. There was no damage where I live, but it was quite noticeable and lasted several minutes.

This Thursday! Theme (not compulsory): You, as a kid Use hashtag: #KidLitArtPostcard +++++ #kidlit #kidlitart

#the100dayproject is almost over!! 🙌 After this experience, I’ve learned that next year I’ll stick to ONE simple task each day. Drawing a line, making a dot… whatever. This year, my goal was simply to draw in my sketchbook, and some days that felt pretty hard! #100DaysDoingArt

🐣 It looks like some baby birds have just hatched in my tree. The only sign is this little egg. I tried to find the nest, but it's pretty hard. 🐣

The rainy season has officially begun here, and it hasn't stopped raining. #kidlitart

I love how one of the most shared experiences of childhood is staring out the car window and creating your own little world to pass the time

#100DaysDoingArt ✴︎ 42/100 I haven't updated in a while... but I'm proud to announce that I'm still keeping up with the challenge! 🥳 I've been painting with acrylics and I'm halfway through my sketchbook. I think I'll finish it completely by the end of this month! 🙌 #The100dayproject #kidlitart

Took Mom to the ER because she fell and hurt her hip. Scans came back negative for a break (so grateful!), but she’s heavily bruised and advised to take it easy for the next two weeks. That will be really hard on us financially, so if you could boost that would be such a help!

Sperm whales are known to socialize, but scientists were stunned when they saw a group of sperm whales gather as one of them gave birth

I feel really bad with the flu, there's no electricity but at least there are some mariachis on the other street so I'll just listen to the music.

Back when #PitMad was a thing, I wrote my official #EgoClub rules for online pitch contests, and I used to jump into the chat with my intentional obliviousness (& encourage it in others) every time a pitch party rolled around. #KidLitChat Here are the rules, in case anyone needs them!!

In Need Of Help Right Now!!! Yet again my current job has been inconsistent in both hours and pay and I really need to take care of these bills/payments and stay afloat while I'm looking for something else. Any help is greatly appreciated #mutualaid #helpsky ko-fi.com/rsdream12/go...
