Above is the two-day, two-page spread; keep reading to see the individual pages with the stories below in this continuing journal series of the day’s Wordle and my wacky dreams.

The left page above was personal. I had just had surgery (with stitches still in place) to fix my vision-impairing eyelids so a self-portrait with stitches seemed like a perfect fit for Wordle: ALTER.
On the right, the Wordle was BLURB so I shared a blurb I wrote about “The Foundling” by Ann Leary. You can click twice to see an enlarged version to read my blurb/review.
Please keep reading below for another week’s worth of journal pages.
Today I’m including a week of journal pages to (try to) catch up. You can click twice on any image for a larger version. My favorite funny dream stories are on the last page below.
Above, left: Wordle was MATEY. I drew an obituary photo for a Ms. Doris Matey and an “Ahoy Matey Dahlia.”
Dreams that day:
- A guy took my spot at a shared art studio
- Shopping for a water brush in an old car repair garage
- My sister and my niece looking like each other
Above, right: Wordle was ELUDE so I drew a kitty eluding capture.
Dream: two guys had a podcast about coyotes at their coyote ranch (and some other stuff I didn’t draw–zoom in on text in photo if you care).
Wordles and dreams for these two days sparked some fun drawing/painting. See below for closeups and details for each page.
Above is the 2-day spread and below are the individual pages with a bit of the stories.
Today I’m posting four days in two, two-page spreads (above and below). Plus I have a question for my readers at the end of the post.
Below are the individual pages and their stories.
Above is my journal spread with my illustrated Wordles and in today’s dreams, some naughty teens and federal crimes. Below are close-ups of each page with the dream stories.
Above is my journal spread with Wordles and Pictures and my dreams for January 4 and 5. Below are close-ups of each page and some easier-to-read stuff from the pages so if (big IF) you are interested in reading my weird dreams, you won’t have to squint at my scribbles on the page.

Continuing from the previous post, here are the rest of December’s Wordles and Pictures and dream sketches.
In October 2022 I returned to journaling my dreams along with normal journaling stuff, and then in December I started illustrating the daily Wordle after I solved the puzzle.
This post is a collection of some of those early sketches. After this, I’ll just post 2-page spreads at a time. Sorry to overload with this one but I wanted to try to get caught up.
DECEMBER 2022
The day I first illustrated a Wordle. It was TAPER but my one rule: I can do whatever I want. So I went with a Malayan TAPIR.
I cropped and blurred out some stuff for privacy but you still get the wild cabbage-baby dream!
