I have a coloring book, one of those “adult” versions. A friend gave it to me and I was thrilled to get it. I use it with more sophisticated tools than crayons, I use watercolors and colored pencils, to adorn the pages. It is relaxing and a throw back to my youth. I always loved to color. I think you see that a lot now, adults returning to their childhood loves. If for no other reason than trying to escape being an adult for a little while. To regress in mind, to a place where life was just simpler.

I love coloring too. Wouldn't it be nice to be young again, but not with the problems faced by today's youth.Mine were simpler times. Find me here. <a href="https://mhsusannematthews.wordpress.com/2017/04/29/2017-a-to-z-challenge-blog-y-is-for-ya-or-young-adult-books-like-prove-it/">LINK</a>

While i have a few of those books -- one of my bosses was throwing them away! -- i still haven't made the time to go get the coloring implements. The child in me wants the biggest pack of expensive pencils and a sharpener, and the adult in me is arguing about the money!
