Hi Everybody!
Hope you all enjoyed your weekend! It was very blustery here, but I managed to get out for some short walks, and when I had the wind in my back I could walk really quickly! I am still in the clinic and will be here for some weeks, but I am feeling better.
This first piece is meant for Mia's challenge at AJJ - add a photo -and Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday link party, which begins this evening. Here a warm welcome to all of the nice ladies of the T Gang who visit here.
And I have another tag for dear Sandie's 'things with wings' challenge at Tag Tuesday:
And I have some thinkies/ funnies and drinkies:
Coffee at the Rhine:
My fave mug - also a 1€ bargain from the thrift shop:
Help yourselves to apple and spice pie, fresh out of the oven:
Have a great week, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
Great thoughts and quotes. Have a happy new week!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, have a great week!
DeleteWonderful post. I am still numb so a short comment. Much love and hugs.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nicole, I do hope that you soon feel better, hugs!
DeleteWonderful post vj. Take care
ReplyDeleteThanks Ashok, have a happy, new week!
DeleteI love that coffee/T day collage. It's a great selection of images, and it is definitely perfect for you and your love of coffee. And nice tag too. I've been cleaning up my art space and tomorrow I'll clean off my table and hopefully get to make a tag. This has not been a big art time start for year for me. Glad to hear you are feeling OK, and hope it stays that way. Have a great T day and start to the new week Valerie. hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThanks Erika. Think how nice it will be to work in a clutter free art room! Hugs!
DeleteI'm a fan of coffee.
ReplyDeleteI noticed that!
DeleteLovely art and good thinkies, the coffee looks amazing -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine, coffee is alwas amazing! Hugs!
DeleteIt is very encouraging to hear that you are feeling better, Valerie. Too bad you couldn't move all you belongings to the clinic and take up residence there! I know that they have good food and an endless flow of coffee, so what's not to like about that? Keep on improving! Hugs and kisses - David
ReplyDeleteYes, that's not a bad idea. Might be a tad too expensive in the long run, this place is not cheap. Have a fantastic start to your week, hugs! xxx
DeleteŻyczę dużo zdrowia . Uwielbiam szarlotkę i kawę i mam nadzieję, że za kilka tygodni bedziesz piła kawę i jadła to pyszne ciastko we własnym domu. Śliczna praca. 🙂
ReplyDeleteThanks Lucyna, when I am back home I will bake a special pie and drink a cup of coffee to your good health!
DeleteBrilliant collage and that apple pie looks delicious too! have a great week Michelle x
ReplyDeleteThnaks so much Michelle, you enjoy your week, too. Hugs!
DeleteAs Erika said, the coffee images are so you. Awesome looking pie. The pie crust leaves are so pretty. Have a slice or two for me. I know the clinic takes such good care of you, but I hope you're out of there soon and back home. Happy T Day
ReplyDeleteOh yes, there's no place like home! Hugs, Valerie
DeleteAmen to the last one.
ReplyDeleteAmen from me, too!
DeleteI'm so glad you're feeling better. I'll says, "Yes, please," to the pie :) It'd be perfect with my morning coffee. Happy T Day!
ReplyDeleteThe pie goes really well with coffee!

DeleteValerie you had me procrastibaking...LOL !!! Love your thoughts and quotes and your art! Hoping you will be out of the clinic soon and all is well.. Happy T day! Hugs! deb
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb, procrastibaking is a wonderful idea!
DeleteThinking of you and praying for good health! Love the art today. I especially love the last thinkie-so very true.
ReplyDeleteThanks Debra, have a great week!
DeleteWhat a fabulous piece, and I love your funnies - so true about the leggings lol. I'm glad you're feeling a bit better and I hope you'll be home soon. Take care and have a great week, Sue xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue, I hate leggings!
DeleteYou can give me coffee any time, it's my favourite drink. I am loving your thoughts today too and you are so right about common sense and the way we treat people. I have an aim each day as I walk through the park to try and talk to people I meet, sometimes it's just hello but even that can make people smile. I do find that having the dogs with me helps too and often people will just stop to stroke them and if that makes them happy then I'm happy too. Take care and have a lovely week. Hugs, Angela xXx
ReplyDeleteWe have a lot in common, love of coffee, talking to people and love of dogs. As you say, many people are grateful for a friendly word or smile 😁! Hugs!
DeleteI am glad that you are feeling better, Valerie. That clinic seems to be a good place for you, Your artwork again is so beautiful. I especially like the "Things with wings" contribution, so lovely. Good thinkies again, especially the last one. Have a good week, Valerie, and continue to feel better.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Carola!
DeleteI think my original comment may have gone into spam folder!!!

Thanks Jan, Blogger is sometimes strange!
DeleteSo pleased to hear that you are feeling better and have been out for some short walks, they must be clinic looking after you well at the clinic 🙂. Your coffee page is fabulous and I love your tag, the pretty scene is so serene. Great thinkies and funnies too. Take care and Happy T Day wishes! Hugs Jo x
ReplyDeleteI love all your Thinkies/funnies and drinkies. Lovely journal page for a warm welcome to our T Gang. And yes, please I will have some of that fresh apple pie. Valerie, I am so glad you are feeling better. Sending hugs and happy t day wishes.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sharon. Enjoy the pie!
DeleteI get it..For love of coffee. My day starts that way.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
Thanks Dora!
DeleteI love how you incorporated your T Tuesday art with Mia's theme at AJJ. Your photo is wonderfully placed inside the background of coffee. Thanks for sharing this with us for T this Tuesday and for AJJ.
ReplyDeleteI especially like the common sense thinkie. Hope you get better with each passing day, Valerie.
Thanks E. Common sense is sometimes rare!
DeleteGreat art - so creative. Wish I could do things like that! Would require the ability to take better pictures and patience to learn and I don't have either these days. I admire your ability though! Love all the drinks, food and funnies/thinkies. The last one is so true - people don't realize it much or seem to care, but it it super true. Hope you are feeling better. Hugz and Happy T-day
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy!
DeleteA gorgeous tag Valerie, love your blog post too, especially the bit about the leggings...some ladies should learn to wear a longer tunic with them. Honestly I've seen some awful sights,lol. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandie, some people in leggings look awful indeed!
DeleteSehr schön, dein Tag und dein "Kaffeeherz", liebe Valerie, und lecker, die Kuchenbilder.
ReplyDeleteOh ja, das ist mir leider auch schon aufgefallen, dass Leggings die Wahrheit erzählen ;-DDD
Ganz liebe Mittwochsgrüße bzw. schönen verspäteten T-Day und gute Besserung!

Vielen Dank Traude!
DeleteWonderful art and quotes this week, Valerie. I have to say, my favorite is the one about the leggings and children. So true!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week.
Happy tea Day,
Kate
True indeed!
DeleteSo glad you are feeling better.
ReplyDeleteLove the tag and thinkies.
Hugs and blessings, Valerie.
Thanks Veronica! Hugs!
DeleteSome very wise sayings there Valerie. Why is it that I naturally say 'hello' to people when I am walking somewhere yet when i am in town I rarely speak to anyone? I am sure it started off as a rule of the countryside to smile and acknowledge one another but whatever started it I do try to do it and find that most people in the 50+ age group do it. Let's hope it catches on with the younger ones. Not saying young ones are not like that some are and I have had some lovely conversations with young folk.
ReplyDeleteYour page featuring coffee is well thought out and I love that you added a photo, is that you? Pretty tag too, I am thinking that is one of your photos you used?
Good to hear you are improving and also that you have freedom within the hospital and can get out for a coffee now and then.
Take care
Hugs, Neet xx
Thanks Neet! That's me! I talk to lots of people I don't know!
DeleteI love the coffee collage. And the colors on the bird collage are so beautiful-- I love the pinks, blues and reds. :)
ReplyDelete-Quinley
Thanks Quinley!
DeleteOoh! Mia's AJJ theme and TSFT! What a great idea! Coffee and you....of course- perfect! Love the tag with your photo too! Pleased to know that you can get out for walks. Hugs, Chrisx

ReplyDeleteThanks Pinky!
DeleteSo glad to hear you are feeling much better. I'm very late to the party. Happy T Day! Elle/EOTC xx
