Hi Everybody!
Here's wishing us all a great new week. I am still struggling and need to rest a lot which means I can't do as much as I would like to , but I have to get used it for a while!
For Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday link party I have a piece made many years back. Here I would like to welcome all of the nice ladies of the T Gang who visit here:
Coffee and cake:
This piece was also created many years back, and the photos were taken in a booth at the beginning of the 1980s :
I'm marveling at how nicely I could write on my old pages!
Having a rest:
Love:
David, what sort of birds are they?
Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
Take care and get good rest Valerie, lovely art pieces today.
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine! Hugs!
DeleteTake thing easy. You will recover soon. Cute cats, monkeys and birds. Have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy. I am too impatient!
DeleteLove the artwork and funnies, Valerie.
ReplyDeleteHugs and healing vibes đ
Thanks ao much Veronca! Have a wonderfu week, hugs!
DeleteHi Val, good morning. Love your coffee pieces today, so beautifully made. Hope you are really resting! Take good care of yourself, step by step you will get better! Hugs from us all, Sarah
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah, I'm really trying to rest! Hugs to all!
DeleteThe more you rest now the quicker you'll be back to normal. I'm off to do mum's shopping now before it gets busy but I'll enjoy that coffee when I get back. Gentle hugs, Angela xXx
ReplyDeleteThanks Angela! I'm trying to be good!
Deletei had a hard week so i also need to rest ...
ReplyDeleteI hope the rest helps you! Hugs!
DeleteIt's very hard to rest and behave ourselves, I know, but in the long run it'll be better. Look after yourself and if you feel up to it, keep making some lovely art. Sending healing light. Hugs, Deb
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb! I'm sometimes a bit impatient! I will make some art this afternoon!
DeleteHi Valerie: I am sure that taking it easy for a while is the best medicine of all, especially when you have delightful pieces like this one in your stash. As for the downy young birds, you have me stumped. I am unable to identify them. I chuckled at the image of the stern lady saying that she enunciates her profanities clearly. I know a couple of women like that and I can tell you it is true! Little old ladies with white hair have doubtless heard it all and know how to use it for best effect! Keep resting up and getting stronger. Hugs and kisses- David
ReplyDeleteDavid, I am shocked that there are birds which you can't identify! I am also able to enunciate my profanities clearly, and that in several languages! I haven't got white hair yet but I still know a lot! I hope you have some enjoyable walks planned this week, and that you can show your acolytes lots of good things! Have a great week, BIG hugs to you and Miriam!
DeleteIt's fun seeing these older art pieces. Is that man your husband on the purple page? And I can identify those birds-they are baby birds-ha-ha-OK that's a bad joke. I hope you are getting rest and have a nice start to your week also. And maybe some more cake and coffee-yummy! Happy early T day. hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThanks Erika. That's me in the photos, with a wig and dressed as a man for our school carnival party. In the class I was teaching the boys had to be girls and the girls boys! We had fun! Hugs!
DeleteGood morning Valerie, loving your art from the past, the funnies were "fun" haha I love the kitties and the baby birds too sweet.
ReplyDeletetry to be good and get lots of rest hugs from the lake Kathy
Thanks Kathy, have a great week, take care!
DeleteYou DID write nicely back then! Do take care and rest up. I think that's so important to healing. And there's always art to do!
ReplyDeleteIndeed, my shaky fingers don't write nicely any more.. I'm busy doing nothing all day!
DeleteSchĂśn deinen Kaffeeposting und das Sprichwort ist toll mit der Verkleidung von dir,lach in der Kabine, eine schĂśne Schrift hast du und witzige Sachen dabei.
ReplyDeletePass auf dich gut auf, liebe Umarmung Elke(https://elkeslebensglueck.blogspot.com)
Danke, liebe Elke, dir eine gute neue Woche!
DeleteI see espresso mentioned. My favorite! But I'd rather have something else with cake... French press or pourover for that, I think :) Happy T Day!
ReplyDeleteNext time I'll add more sorts of coffee!
Deleteoh, I'm good ;) I'll take any kind offered lol
DeleteThere's a coffee shop in town where you get served with 6 different sorts of coffee to find your fave. i liked them all!
DeleteCoffee and Cake I'll have any time! Love your funnies, particularly those monkeys.
ReplyDeleteThanks, they are so sweet!
DeleteNice post vj. Hope to see u back in form soon
ReplyDeleteThanks Ashok, it can only get better!
DeleteBIrd babies don't become distinctive right away -- unlike some species, which are born in a pretty capable state (at least able to walk and follow their mothers or hang onto them), chicks are born very blind and helpless and without fully marked feathers. They can'f fly or walk. So like us, bird parents have to go to a lot of trouble to raise a family. I like your photos.
ReplyDeletebest... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Thanks Mae. A few years back I hand reared a baby blackbird, and it was very hard work but a great experience.
DeleteI hope you get plenty of rest, Valerie. I am glad I saw your request to link you, which I did. I love the coffee idea and the cake, which looks more like pie to me. This is a great way to honor T Tuesday even if you are sharing older art. Take care, dear friend.
ReplyDeleteThanks Elizabeth, happy T Day!
DeleteCoffee and cake (well tea for me) is sometimes just what is needed!
ReplyDeleteKeep resting, although not always easy, does aid healing.
My good wishes.
All the best Jan
Yes, a piece of cake now and then is good! Have a great week!
DeleteOh, Valerie, what a great post. Love the cats, napping! :) I am sorry to hear you are still struggling. Sending hugs. Happy T Day.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sharon, I was very ill and I suppose it just takes time! Happy T Day!
DeleteThese are lovely photos. I love the photo of cats. So cute.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
Thanks Amila! Have a great week!
DeleteNice coffee pages Valerie, take it easy and don't try to do too much too soon. Happy T Day! Elle/EOTC xx
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm really taking it easy! Hugs!
DeleteI'm so glad you are back! By all means take it easy. You have to rest a lot to let your body recover. But I really appreciate that you have been able to write a blog post.
ReplyDeleteI love the page with the younger you. And the animal photos are cute.
Happy T-Day,
Hugs,
Lisca
Thanks Lisca. I am sitting with my feet up! Hugs đ¤đ¤

ReplyDeleteLove, Hugs and Blessings
Thanks so much Jim! Yes, coffee always first!
DeleteValerie ! So good to hear from you! You have been missed!!! Glad you are feeling better and hopefully with time and rest you will be feeling EVEN better.. Love seeing these older pieces.. They are fabulous! Great pics all.. but the old lady made me smile! Happy T day! Hugs! deb
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb! I missed you all, too. This has been a strange couple of weeks! Hugs!
DeleteSuch wonderful coffee art for T Day and great funnies too đ. So glad you're able to relax at home and take it easy. Sending you get well wishes and have a very Happy T Day! Hugs Jo x
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo, have a great week!
DeleteI am not a T gang member but I do like your posting of the coffee cup and the lovely script accompanying it.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you are still feeling tired, you must rest when your body tells you to. I have been having trouble with breathlessness these past few weeks and am trying not to do anything that will exert me and set me off. they always say "there's no fun in getting old" and I just know what they mean nowadays.
You take care and listen to your body.
Hugs, Neet xx
Sorry you are getting breathless, you have to take it easy, too. Yes, getting old sucks!
DeleteDefinitely coffee for me! Your writing really was neat. I'm sorry you are being forced to slow down but a slower pace now will give your body time to catch up with your mind! Do take it easy! Hugs, Chrisx
ReplyDeleteThanks Chris, take it easy is now my motto!
DeleteHoping you are able to rest, Valerie. Your art is fabulous especially the old photo booth page.
ReplyDeleteHappy tea Day,
Kate
I used to love fooling about in photo booths, such fun!
DeleteYour Art is always delightful dear Valerie ! looove your lettering, love the cats and the baby birds. I hope you could rest all the time and you´ll see you recover very soon. i wish you a very nice end of the week, and send big hugs
ReplyDeleteCaty
