The rhythm of the night

Hi Everybody!

News:
Had a bad day on Tuesday, with lots of awful pains,
and got lots of medis which knocked me out. And
even worse, the WiFi was down, what a catastrophe!
I get all of my tubes pulled on Thursday, which should also bring
great relief. Thanks for all the encouraging messages, will write
when I have more strength.

For Art Journal Journey, music is the food of love, I have
another hybrid page. The background is a Van Gogh copy I made with pastel chalks and white pen. I digitally added the mask and the silhouette of the little girl and bird.




And these are the sights I am missing just now:



 

Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!

  3. Liebe Valerie,
    wundervoll dein Van Gogh, so filigran. Ich kann sehr gut nachvollziehen, dass das Rheinufer fehlt, bei den genialen Fotos, die du einstellst. Gute Besserung, viel Kraft und herrliche Erholungsmomente wünsche ich dir von Herzen.
    Herzliche Grüsse, Sichtwiese

  14. Oh my dear very sorry you had a bad time and then to be without WiFi too is just rotten timing!
    Hope today and every day from here on out are much much better for you.
    It will be nice when you're back home and enjoying your own routine again.
    Your lovely collage made me think of the Phantom of the Opera and now I have the music playing in my head.
    Take good care of yourself liebe Valerie!
    Sending lots of gentle healing (((hugs))) oxo

  15. Hello Valerie, hope all went as planned. Also hope that your WiFi has stabilised, yes that was a disaster.
    Your night-time piece is splendid, a great swirling Val-Gogh in those lovely blues and blacks.

  16. Valerie, so sorry to hear you've had a rough time of it. All this for a knee op, which sounds so simple yet it is not, really. I do know joint pain, so I certainly hope it will all be worth it. You were so sweet to schedule posts. Always thinking about your readers. You should just show your caretakers our comments so they will know we will storm the HospiCastle if our Val ain't treated right! heehee Well, the thought's what counts, right? Prayers for your quick eviction and liberation! xoxo

  17. Valerie, the second day after surgery seems to be the worse as the body reacts to the invasion. I pray the pain will continue to be less each day. Rest, breathe deeply knowing your blogger friends are wanting you to regain your strength and be up on your feet soon. Pain isn't fun and takes its toll not only where we had surgery but the brain too. I am sorry you have to experience the pain. Keep smiling as you think of the birds waiting for their photographic events.
    Hugs,
    C

  20. Oh dear - I guess it's par for the course but sure hoping by now the tubes are out and you can at least move a bit better without them. Thinking of you a LOT and believing for a much better day tomorrow.

    I bet you are listening to the rhythms of the night for sure with all the nurses in and out. Love your little gal playing her music - that kind of night rhythm is SUPER FINE!!! Hugs. j.

  24. This is a beautiful entry for AJJ. I love the silhouette and the horn. Sorry about the pain you experienced, but laughed out loud at the loss of your WiFi. You were living in MY world when that happened!
