In this video, I talk about how the fountain pens and inks I have been writing with are working out this month! It's a great report card this month 6 - As and 2 Incompletes due to being so darned busy!
I also show my small purchase of some fountain pens from 5Below which are great. Here's Michelle's video that inspired my purchase:

2. Montblanc 145 Meisterstuck Classique M with Rohrer & Klingner Solferino (pen was a gift from pen friend WC)
3. Majohn P139 Orange M (#8) with Diamine Ochre
4. Benu Talisman Mandrake B with Robert Oster Tranquility

Thank you for watching. I'm hanging onto my You Tube creating by a thread these days because caregiving and guardian duties come first not to mention keeping this house standing and taking care of myself, Manuel and the cats. But, I will keep making videos as long as I possibly can because it's so joyful and I love connecting with other pen and paper and ink people!!!!! I am of the believe that it's vital to have SOME fun in our lives no matter what is going on. It fuels us for the things that are challenging and down right hard. So, I encourage myself to keep reserving at least some time for my hobby!!!! I hope you do too.
