Weekend Post

Hi Everybody!

Today I am sharing another hybrid piece for Elle's Books, cats and tea challenge at AJJ. The background is from an old musicbook I have. The bird is my balcony bird again, and I added some digis and photos:

And I have a quick tag for Michele's Silhouettes challenge at Tag Tuesday. 


And some photos from this week, early in the morning:









Have a great weekend, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by!

    Good morning, Valerie. Happy weekend. The cats look lovely, as cats always do, as long as they stay away from my birds. Sweet little kitties can change into merciless killers in an instant. I wonder if Charlie Chaplin kept cats. From what I know of him he preferred young women! If they scratched he probably enjoyed it. I bet they purred too. Today I will be leading a walk for about twenty dedicated bird enthusiasts and have to be out of the house by about 7:15 to greet them all on their arrival at our scheduled rendezvous. The day looks to be just about perfect, cool this morning, rising to around twenty degrees by mid afternoon. There will be quite a few novices on this outing and I should be able to find a few “good” birds for them. Yesterday, Miriam made focaccia bread so our sandwiches will be delicious. Last time we visited my daughter, however, we left our thermos behind, so there will be no mid morning coffee. Wait, I have a wide mouth thermos for soup. We could adapt that for coffee. And there is apple cake too. Last evening we made a dish called Indian chicken for dinner. It’s always enough for two nights so it will be easy when we return home after a long day in the field. Maybe I’ll even pick up a bottle of wine on the way home. So there you have it, good birding, good food, good company, good wine. Not a bad day! Hugs and kisses - David

      I only show good Kitties. My cats never went out, I kept them safe at home, and they could only view birds through the window - which was probably like TV for them - and hiss if birds came too near.
      Sounds like you had a very good time yesterday, with wonderful food, and I hope today will be just as good. Your weather sounds better than ours, we've got 14° and wind, but I still enjoyed my morning walk to the Rhine! I hope you have a great time with your group, and enjoy your nice sandwiches! And when you come home, a bottle of wine would be perfect! Enjoy, be good, have fun! Hugs! xxxxx

    Cute kitties on your page today Valerie, lovely sunrise photos, loved the shafts of sunlight through the clouds, and speaking of clouds the Moses meme made me LOL. Have a lovely weekend. Thanks for joining me for the Books, Cats & Tea September theme at Art Journal Journey this month. Happy Journalling! Elle xx

      Thaks Carol, sometimes I wish I could flee as a bird! It's starting to feel like autumn here, the wind was cold, too! I was happy to be back from my morning walk today! Have a great weekend, hugs, Valerie

    Those kitties on your music book cover look great. I think they like to relax to the music. And nice tag. I need to make some art time since we've had such a nice week I've been working outside and getting into other trouble. :) I hope you have a super weekend-relaxing, reading, painting, etc. Hugs-Erika

    What a fabulous journal page. I like the music background, the tea, and books, BUT both kittens stole my heart. SO adorable.

    Loved the tag. Such an iconic silhouette, too.

    All of the funnies were great. I loved the Moses meme and the vacuum cleaner one. Laughed hard at both. Thanks for this great entry for Elle's theme at AJJ, too.
