T sTands for This , That and The oTher


Hi Everybody!

Hope you all had a good weekend in spite of 'Corrina'. I was sad not to be able to go out as the weather was cold and frosty, just right for walking, but  I was at least able to see it from my balcony. Some places got snow and/or sleet. It's extremely cold again today, a strange beginning to summer time! Things just have to get better! But it did give me time to prepare posts, tidy files on my computer and do lots of reading, all positive things! My laptop is also misbehaving, the 'a' doesn't want to work, so I need to bash the key several times to get a result. Not good when your fingers are sore. My laptop is suffering from old age, like me, and sooner or later I will need a new one. 

I have another tag for Michele's bunnies and butterflies challenge at Tag Tuesday to share. This time I used Beatrix Potter figures. The quote is also from her:



This evening we will be beginning ElizabeTh's T sTands for Tuesday parTy, so here a warm welcome to all the lovely ladies of the T gang who come by.
I found this piece in a book I picked up, I don't know when I scribbled it, but it fits for today, anyway. I guess I mixed up my breakfast and mouse....But I must confess, my desk is never that tidy! 


Coffee at home tastes good, too!




My head is always filled with dreams of coffee:


Today I have some pics from my balcony flowers:








Nathalie has been sorting out at home as she will soon be moving, and gave me these 2 beautiful tins of French soap, which look and smell delightful:




And of course, my fascination with the sunrise continues:


I wrote this poem when I was at school, I recently re-discovered it in one of the old school magazines from 1960. My fascination with sunrise is not new:

Dark sky changing
Through rainbow hues
Into the clear light of day
Spider trembling in its web, waiting
The golden sliver of the rising sun
Sliding over the horizon
Filling the world with fire and light.



The flowers close in the evening and welcome the sun by opening up again:


Have a good week, stay safe,
and thanks a lot for coming by!

    Hi Val, good morning! Hope you are keeping well and fit in spite of it all! Love your Beatrix Potter tag, the kids love it, too. Great photos, too and I love the poem you wrote back then. you were always very talented! We have the usual chaos here and it's very cold and frosty. The kids are watching TV with mum, so they're occupied for a bit. Sorry about your keyboard, sounds annoying. Take care and stay home! Hugs, Sarah

    Danke. Du bringst mich trotz des Wahnsinns mit "Corinna" zum Lachen!
    Oh jeh, stell dir vor du heißt so!!! Hilfe! ;-)
    Yep, hier auch. Daten aufgeräumt.
    Oh, du arbeitest vom Laptop? Ich hasse das, ich habe einen Good old fashioned PC mit zwei großen Monitoren. Laptop nur im Notfall. Herrjeh, es tut mir leid, dass deine Finger noch nicht OK sind! Mein Husten ist fast weg. Ich hatte echt Angst es wäre Corinna. War vielleicht ne ganz Kleine...

    Hahaha. Eine Kollegin, die mit nur einem Monitor arbeitete, saß an meinem PC und griff die Mandarine. Ich dachte, naja, vielleicht hungrig?
    Sie schob die Mandarine hin und her und starrte von einem Monitor zum anderen - ein Kunde war dabei und ich hatte eine sehr harte Zeit, nicht zu lachen. Ich stubste sie (wir waren Freundinnen) und sie guckte mich nur böse an.
    Ich stubste wieder mit Blick auf die Mandarine.... und sie hatte auch eine harte Zeit, nicht zu lachen.
    Danke für die Erinnerung und: Du bist nicht allein.
    Ihre Chefin nahm mal ein Brötchen...
    Ingo hat mal ein altes Mobiltelefon durch die Gegend geschoben...

    Schöne Tasse! ..n, plural! Und wunderschöne Blumen.
    Das sind schöne Seifendosen. Ich hoffe, das Chaos ist vorbei wenn unser Französisches Festival ansteht, da gibt es auch immer so schöne Seifen.

    Schönes Gedicht, ich kann sowas gar nicht.
    Was ich kann: verbummeln :-( Ich habe deine Adresse verbummelt, kannst du sie nochmal schicken bitte?
    Und ich hab doch glatt die Sommerzeit verpennt!
    GlG, Iris

Sommerzeit würde ich auch vergessen aber die Uhren stellen sich alle automatisch um. Ich schicke dir die adresse per WhatsApp später!

    I think that some enterprising coffee merchant or international company should give you a juicy contract to promote their product. You would be the most sincere, genuine and believable shill they could have. And of course part of the deal would be to supply you with free coffee for life! Stay well, keep occupied and don't pound your fingers to a pulp on the recalcitrant laptop!

We have alot of BIG trees that came down this winter with the storms. We are just cleaning up the smaller branches so that it won't cost so much when we pay someone to come cut up the massive trunks .

    Gosh, Valerie. I thought I would be early, but from the looks of things, I'm not. I actually just finished my T post because I was once again kicked offline.

    LOVE the bunny tag. It's so cute and clever, and a lovely quote, too.

    Your flowers on your balcony are doing great. You more than likely have a green thumb.

    Sorry about your laptop keyboard. My keyboard and mouse (I only have my home computer) are fighting again, and sometimes they won't let me write. I keep moving the mouse, then the keyboard, then the mouse again. Very frustrating. I even broke the back of the keyboard, the part that holds it up off the table.

    LOVE your coffee. You make the best looking cappuccinos. The cups are gorgeous, too. Even your head that's thinking about coffee first thing in the morning is wonderful Thanks beyond belief for sharing your art, your lovely flowers, and your cappuccinos with us for T this Tuesday, dear friend.

  23. Eileen BergenMonday, March 30, 2020

    I have a finger-saving tip for you, Valerie. It's a little tedious, but it might be worth the trouble. Copy an "a" into a textPad or Note Pad page. Whenever you need an "a," go there and copy the "a," then paste it on the page you're working on. You can do a bunch at a time. When you need the keyboard to work well more than ever, is when it fails. That must be part of Murphy's Law.

    Your cartoon really made me smile. That should be a stamp!

    Love your tag: "Behave yourself and never mind the rest." Perfect manta for these days.

    Happy T-day! Eileen xx

    Lovely bunnies, on your tag and also your header of course is so sweet. I have only recently noticed that the rabbit in your header only has one ear!
    Oh your cappuccino looks so yummy, I wish I could make that, but I will need a special machine to fluff up the milk. I have tried shaking in a jar and that works a bit, but it is not the same as a cappuccino from the barista.
    Your sunrises are spectacular. Even in 1960, when you wrote the poem, you were into sunrises.
    I'm sorry your keyboard is imitating your fingers. I have an old laptop with the same problem but when it happens, I use the on screen keyboard, which I always have running in the background in case one of my keys goes on strike.
    Ooh that soap! a beauty! I hope Nathalie is not moving too far away. so you can still see each other.

    First of all the words: a really beautiful poem, Valerie - and so interesting to see that your fascination with the sunrise goes so far back to your childhood - and a great quote from Beatrix Potter. Now the pictures - a delightful tag with so much colour and life for one of my favourite literary characters. Your little scribble is so eloquent of your frustration! And the photos, as always are an enchantment - lovely flowers on the balcony, such delightful vintage soap tins, and those stunning sunrise photos too.

When it gets to this time of year it gets rather too hot for plants and flowers so I choose from some of the imitation ones I've bought over the years. We had a buzzard flying round earlier - I thought I saw it being chased by crows the other day but couldn't believe that we would have one around! I love your tag - my GD loved the Beatrix Potter tales. You have clearly been a sunrise lover for a while too, what a lovely poem! Your little cartoon drawing had me laughing - Oh the frustrations on technology! Take care! Chrisx
