I am now living, breathing combination of Walter Brennan and Sylvester the Cat.

Hi-de-ho and happy Friday morning to you and yours! Sam is picking up a few grocery essentials at Wal-Mart — hummus, cheese, chicken lunch meat, braunschweiger, and a nice loaf of bread — while I hold down the proverbial fort here at Howdygram headquarters. And I also want to thank you in advance for putting up with me, as I’ve had a very difficult month bouncing back from another health scare (cellulitis in my right leg), a two-week fever and hospitalization at Baylor’s nearby medical center in Sunnyvale. As a result I’ve had almost zero energy whatsoever, a shitty appetite, a lot of difficulty moving around in the house, and I’ve even had to go back to using my walker so I won’t fall down.

And if that’s not enough tsouris for a housebound old lady, two days ago a team from Elite Mobile Dental showed up to extract my last seven shitty teeth to make way for a lower denture. I am now living, breathing combination of Walter Brennan and Sylvester the Cat.
It feels like I’ve been kicked in the jaw by a mule. Oy.

For the immediate future my culinary options are limited to well-smooshed tuna salad and egg salad,  classic Campbell’s soups — Chicken Noodle, Tomato, French Onion — and Hormel Compleats chili with soggy saltines. Also lots of sugar-free Jell-O.



I’ve got a huge gaggle of FREE FONTS for you this morning, just about everything an addict could ever want. We’ve got delicious scripts (“Artistic Chaos,” “Memphis Park”), hand-lettered serif and sans serif fonts (“Draw Your Brand,” “Tropen,” “Bookland”), interesting display fonts (“Curely Pro,” “Hamer,” “Lady Marmalade”), three different font bundles and a classic old stand-by, “Antique Olive.” Download links will appear below the graphic in case you want to add any of these fonts to your personal collection.



I’ve also got some lovely new background patterns and illustrations to show you. Please let me know if you want any of these and I’ll be glad to email the files, okay?


I think I’d better publish this post as soon as possible so I can pop a few pain meds, migrate into the family room and enjoy a couple of movies with Sam. I promise to try posting more often from now on. Thank you for reading this!
