Monday Post

Hi Everybody!

Hope you all had a great weekend. I'm glad to say that I had a restful one, and spent my time reading, painting and sleeping, yes! And on Saturday I was out with Heike, we got some shopping and went for coffee, yummy. And they gave us samples of their delicious poppy seed cake, yessssssssss!

First off I have a spring tag for my seasons challenge at Tag Tuesday, which runs for another week:


And today I am sharing a journal page, it seems to be about dreams....


I may have shown this one already, but it's one of my faves:


And as always some funnies, thinkies and photos:





Some of my balcony visitors:



A fisher at work - the heron is so good at catching fish:





This blackbird - I call him Jack - comes ever day:


And last but not least, some Canada Geesefor dear David:


I have had to find devious ways to upload my photos as Blogger is not uploading them automatically any more, I hope this hitch soon gets fixed.

Have a great, new, week, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by

Friday Faces

Hi Everybody!

This week has flown by again, and tomorrow is Friday ,and that means I will be linking to Nicole's FFO and to Gillena's AFFF. It was very hard to get photos up as Blogger is being very uncooperative just now, and that's putting it politely!

I have some various faces to show, starting off with Frida Kahlo:


This is a photo of me as a little girl together with my brother-in law, who was in the US army:


Another hand-made and stitched piece:


And this is the cover of a book I made for a friend:


And some funnies and thinkies:








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

New challenge at Tag Tuesday

Hi Everybody!

Sorry I have been MIA but I was just not able to do much these past  2 weeks, but slowly I am getting back to normal, whatever that might be. At Tag Tuesday we have a new challenge, and I am hosting after a very long break. Many thanks to Sandie, Pinky and Michelle who kept everything up and running while I was down. The new theme is seasons, and anything to do with seasons is allowed.

I have a winter tag with Shaun the sheep, I always loved watching this even if it is a children's programme!




And I am re-showing this tag, as we so need peace n the world just now!


And some flowers painted long ago:




I would love to see you joining in with the challenge whic h runs for 2 weeks!

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

Friday Post

Hi Everybody!
Where did the week go? Once again it disappeared in a flash, and I didn't get much done at all. That's okay as I am supposed to be taking things easy, and next week I go into hospital again.

Today is Friday, that means Nicole's FFO and Gillena's AFFF.
This is a collage made from torn paper scraps and there are also faces on it:


David Zinn:



Love this precious photo:



And some faces made for a 'back to school' challenge many years ago. The photo in the background is the school I used to teach at in England:



This was me a long time ago:


One of my favourite faces:


Two of my Modigliani knock-offs:





This was my husband at about 14:


And some thinkies, funnies and photos:








These three photos were taken at ALDI on Tuesday. The incoming planes heading for the airport skim over the lights and the the supermarket. It looks scary:




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