Hi Everybody!
Hope you were all able to celebrate the coming of 2021, and let's hope it will be better and brighter than the last one! We had a beautiful celebration at the clinic, very festive and the staff decorated the room beautifully for us.
Today I have another 'numbers' tag to share at Tag Tuesday, where Pinky's theme is numbers:
I don't know about you, but I'm longing for spring, as it's a cold, grey and dismal day here, so I'm sharing some spring photos to tide us over the grey days:
Let's look forward to better, healthier and safer times, and may the sun shine for us all!
Have a great weekend, take care,
Have a great weekend, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
Happy New Year Wishes.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed seeing all of your spring photographs as it has been very grey and cold in my part of the UK recently, hopefully some sunshine soon!
Enjoy your weekend.
All the best Jan
Thanks Jan. Spring will come!
DeleteI am so glad you had a nice New Year's Eve celebration Valerie. I love your tag and your spring photos are so beautiful. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteThanks Martha. Spring will come, and things will get better!
DeleteGlad to hear you had a nice New years celebration. Mine was typically quiet but that was OK. It was nice to wake up this morning and know it was 2021. That is a cool ta. And I enjoyed the spring photos. It would be nice to have some green right now. We have a bit of snow coming tonight and maybe more Sunday night. Have a great weekend. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThanks Erika! It's cold and grey, with snow and sleet threatened here! Enjoy your weekend!
DeleteFabulous and interesting tag really it's great and different. It's supposed to be our summer here but so cold at the moment and even slept with the doona on last night....and a blanket!. xxx
ReplyDeleteSorry about that, sounds like you have our weather!
DeleteNice numbers tag. Spring will be here before you know it! Look at how quickly the Christmas season went by.
ReplyDeleteThanks, it's a comfort to think of spring right now!
DeleteThanks Laurie. I'm still in the clinic, but slowly getting better!
ReplyDeleteHi Val, good morning! It's cold and grey here, so good to see your cheery photos. Lovely tag, too. We are all well here. Take care, hugs, Sarah
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah! Enjoy your Weekend! Hugs to all!
Deletei love your photos :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathy!
DeleteGlad you had a wonderful party at the clinic! That makes a lot better for your health!
ReplyDeleteFor me, January is always the longest month on the calendar ... we have to bite the bullet until spring comes ... but the wait won't be long!
Take care! Hugs!
Thanks Ella! January is always a long month, but it will pass! Lete's look forward to spring!
DeleteIt sounds as if the staff are working hard to look after you, and you have a few other residents too. Oh, I agree, January is a dismal month, and your header image sums it up perfectly with it's moody greyness. Today started out with such a promise of sun, but already it is clouded over and yet more rain falling. Hugs, Deb
ReplyDeleteYes, January is mostly dismal, but it will pass! Grey and cold here, brrrrr! Look after yourself!
DeleteIf I have to pick a number I am going for 13. In fact Friday the thirteenth would do just fine. I met Miriam on Friday the 13th, got married on Friday the 13th and bought this house on Friday the 13th. And there are several other significant thirteens too! Your pictures of spring are encouraging, Valerie. Already the days are getting a little longer and by the end of January the extra hours of daylight are always noticeable, in February Great Horned Owls and Canada Jays will already be busy nesting and the whole cycle will start all over again. Perhaps even the rare birds of Balconia-by-the-Rhine will start getting hormonal? Winter has been mild by Canadian standards and fortunately there have been many sunny days. The combination of snow and sunshine is delightful. The new year seems to have started well for you and I hope it continues that way. Hugs and kisses, David.
ReplyDeleteGood to know you're not afraid of Friday 13th! I am so longing for spring, and I suppose lots of others are, too....I am sure the birds of balconia will soon return! They're waiting for spring to shake out their plumage and fly!. I spent this afternoon in the studio here, that was fun, but I think we talked more than painted! Have a great weekend, take care, hugs to you both!
DeleteTalking is good for the soul.
DeleteIndeed, it's doing me good!
DeleteCute tag. Reminds me of the Eldest and her love of Thomas the Tank Engine when she was little. We had a dusting of snow last night and this morning is cloudy and foggy. It's supposed to rain with another storm for Sunday night. I am more than ready for Spring so your pictures are so welcome this morning. The groundhog peeking through the flowers made me smile. Let's hope the groundhog doesn't see his shadow next month. Take care
ReplyDeleteMy grandchildren could never get enough of Thomas the Tank Engine! Let's hope we don't have to wait too long for spring!
DeleteSuch a nice post! I am longing for spring too, so your photos helped so much! Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteI think lots of us are longing for spring! Happy New Year!
DeleteLovely spring photos. It looks like summer to me. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteThanks Glenda!
DeleteCool tag. Is that first creature a beaver? What is he doing there? I thought all international flights were closed down from Canada. :) Happy new year.
ReplyDeleteThis is coypu, a dort of muskrat that lives in Europe! Funny thought that they could fly over!
DeleteThese overcast/rainy days have me wishing for sunshine if not actual spring. Your photos offer some encouragement :) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI need to encourage myself!
DeleteHappy New Year Valerie, let hope it is a better year - and like you I'm looking forward to Spring and it was lovely to see your Springtime photos, especially as we've got snow.
ReplyDeleteLove your tag. I like the little trains.
Avril xx
Thanks Avril, enjoy your weekend!
DeleteCute tag Valerie, the stripes and trains look beautiful together. Gorgeous springtime photos, that first critter is so cute! Glad the staff made everything festive for the New Year. Take care & stay safe.

ReplyDeleteThanks Stacy! Stay safe and well!
DeleteHappy New Year!
ReplyDeleteAnd to you and yours!
DeleteThat's a lovely, colorful tag, Valerie. Winter is just starting here. I got about 8 inches of ice and snow yesterday, knocking out my electricity early in the day. I guess spring is just a memory because we are just now experiencing winter's ugly blast. Stay warm, stay safe dear.
ReplyDeleteThanks E! It Sounds very cold where you are, Take care!
DeleteOja der Frühling wäre mir jetzt auch lieber wie das Schmuddelwetter bei mir und ich träume da von jetzt bei dir mit dienen shcönen Fotos und deinem tollen ,fantasiereiches Zahlenbild. Schön dass sie für euch so an genehm gemacht haben in der Klinik.
ReplyDeleteSchönen Sonntag wünsche ich dir!
Lieben Gruss Elke
Danke, liebe Elke! Frühling ist immer besser als Schmuddelwetter, das stimmt! Dir einen schönen Sonntag!
DeleteSuch beautiful flowers! Have a great new year of creativity!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ellie, you too!
DeleteVery fine photos ;) Have a nice day :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Martyna!
DeleteLovely photos. It's been a miserable wet and cold day here today too. Cute tag.
ReplyDeleteWe need to Hope for spring!
DeleteFabulous post! The tag is brilliant - made me smile and think of my Grandson, who was train mad when he was little - we watched hours of Thomas the Tank engine and had lots of steam train journeys.
ReplyDeleteYour Spring photos gave me a real lift - looking forward to getting out of this Tier 4 and getting some longer walks. They are shutting off or diverting some of the riverside paths around here so that they can work on some bridges! Glad you got to have some fun at New Year! Take care, Chrisxx
Thanks Chris. My grandchildren Loved Thomas the Tank Engine, too! Have a great week!
DeleteWhat a fabulous tag Valerie, so bright and cheery and it definitely took me back too to Thomas The Tank Engine days with my children. I'm sure we still have the videos somewhere, but no video player lol.Take care and have a very happy 2021, Sue x
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue, those were the days! Stay safe!
DeleteGreat tag and photos, Spring can't come soon enough for me. I drove home last night on very snowy icy roads. Heart in my mouth job with husband and son as passengers.
ReplyDeleteThanks Wendy. Driving over Ice is scary, glad you arrived safely!
DeleteYour photos are a tonic. It is gray here, too but with lots of snow so seeing grass and flowers is a big boost!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeanie, it's grey and dismal here. Stay safe!
DeleteWe are having a gray day here today too, but it will pass and the sun and warmth will return. Lovely tag.
ReplyDeleteYes, sooner or later the sun will shine again!
DeleteI really like this tag. Hmmm spring? Winter just started for me. I have a long way until spring. Hope the sun shines for you.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nicole. No sun here, just grey and cold!
DeleteCool tag. Your photos are beautiful...always make me smile.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nan, stay safe!
Deletetolles tag!
ReplyDeleteschöne Bilder. :)
Thanks Rika!
DeleteWarm Wishes why the number 5 for your tag
ReplyDeleteMINE
HAPPY NEW YEAR
MUCH LOVE...
Your tag is brilliant Valerie and you chose my lucky number!! I hope you are recovering well and getting better by the day. Stay and here's hoping spring will look beautiful and be as uplifting as we need it to be!
ReplyDeleteIt is another grey day here in the UK and we have had a small fall of snow. It makes the bushes in the garden look ever so pretty but I want it to go away as I worry about the roads being slippery.
ReplyDeleteThat was a lovely tag you made, so bold and bright.
Thanks for the photographs, they certainly made me sit and think about warmer days to come. Love the coypu (if I have it right - never seen one irl_.
Hugs, Neet xx
I love all the Spring pictures ~ Especially the critters! today is sunny and it really does make such a big difference. Blessings to you!
