The Alien Invasion

I could not resist taking these pictures the other day, coming from a shopping trip: The Alien Invasion has arrived..... :)

So, I have had holiday and did a whole lot of nothing. It was fantastic. I did however, help a friend with some of her mending (no, she did not ask, I offered) and it was such a fantastic day - I got fed (yummy pasta and brownies), did what I love and had company doing it. In return, I received...... Home-made Biscotti!!! YUMMY, thank you Se7en. Also, I ordered and received a brand-spanking-new couch. What a pleasure to not sink almost to the floor when relaxing (I used a low bed as couch before). The Ottoman came as a freebie - don't you just love those?

Fans, fans and more fans

Let me just say that I'm really NOT a soccer fan, nor any sport for that matter. But am I glad that my friend Pat convinced me to do the fan walk with her. There is nothing like hearing the crowds go wild when a goal is scored. I'm talking about the first goal of the match between Germany and Argentina (from the 3rd minute). I then watched the rest of the game on the telly, and I must honestly say it was a fantastic game. So, here are pictures of some of the 300 000 fans on that day (yes, the number is correct).

I have been blessed this week. I am on holiday and went to visit the Ladies Christian Home, got the tour and walked away with a whole shopping bag of tapestry wool and some canvas. YAY I sorted the wool according to label and then combined it with what I had left over from other projects. I now have lots of ideas, but "where to find the time?"

Belated Birthday wish

Image
My "fairy" Godmother sent me a card for my birthday, which I got yesterday. She hit the nail - or is that the pin? - right on the head with this one.

Birthday Cake

I supplied the cake muffin and Cathy the candle. Thank you, guys

Don't you just love Art Galleries?

For weeks (or was that months?) I have been walking past this chair on the stairs, and then, this morning I was greeted with this note: and that just made my day...... Of course I was contemplating Dada art in the process and why anyone would have a chair that no-one could sit on. Thoughts?
