Word Photo Challenge 2016 - Week 4

Welcome, my friends, for week 4 of our word challenge this year!

This was a very interesting word, wasn't it? Could be very difficult to interpret I think!

I have 2 photographs for you today, I simply could not make up my mind so I have shown both of them!

Each morning when I get out of bed, I look outside our bedroom door and I show my gratitude for being still alive when I look to the sky and say "thank you"

I am the lucky one who has outlasted friends time and time again, friends who would have loved to be in our garden, who would have enjoyed it as much as we do.

I have so much to be grateful for, and I live every day, not only for myself, but for those who are not here.  I like to add my creativity to this place for the benefit of others, to make this life a nicer one.

So, join in now by filling in my Mr Linky below, and then we can all see your photo of red!

If you are just passing through, join in below and we can all visit your blog as well!

See you tomorrow evening for the next weeks word.

Take care

Tuesday is the New Monday!!

It certainly looks like Tuesday is the new Monday for me!

To my friends who are waiting for me to comment on their photoes they have posted - please give me time, I am finding it almost impossible to comment on some blogs - in that case I will send you an email. Sorry.

So without further ado, lets get onto Week 4's word - Its "gratitude" - what a wonderful word.

Over to you now!

Word Photo Challenge 2016 - Week 3

Hi everyone, welcome back for our pictures of the word "yoga".

It was a hard one, wasn' t it!? As per usual, I left everything until the last minute, and then panicked! So what's new!!

Actually I had some good ideas, but I had to  be honest with you, so here is the story behind my picture:

Up until around 8 or so years ago, I went regularly to yoga with a lovely group of people. Even though I had heart and back problems, I found that yoga did me the world of good - in fact, I honestly had practiced yoga for many many years.

Then I took really ill with Legionalla and severe hert failure and I found that I could just not keep up with my yoga, so I gave it away.

After all these years now, I know that I should return to my yoga practice, I know from experience that it does me the world of good, I know that it will help my lungs and I know it will assist my heart and my back.  But do you think I can do it?

No.  I have become too lazy to get out of my own way  now, it's been too long and I just can't seem to get myself back into the practice! It really is disgusting, I know I should and I keep telling myself I should, but I just don't.  I would feel so much better if I did. I need a bomb put under me!

I hav  even bought all these videos, so I can practice at home. But I don't.

Just look at that, almost all of Louse Wiggins series of Yoga for Health, plus innumerable books etc! What am I going to do with myself!!

Now you kniow my darkest and deepest secret and I am ashamed. I guess, at least I'm not a drug addict or an alcoholic or anything worse!!

 So, join in now by filling in my Mr Linky below, and then we can all see your photo of red!

If you are just passing through, join in below and we can all visit your blog as well!

See you tomorrow evening for the next weeks word.

Oops! I Forgot the Word for Week 3!

I was busy last night and forgot to call by and give the word for week 3 of ourWord Challenge 2016, so here I am, better late than never.

I see that most of us had loaves of  bread for our pics, Dianne you were the only original - take a bow!!

Our word for week 3 is " yoga" I'm sure that this one will get some interesting pictures! Or maybe I should say "hope it does!

I'll see you all next Sunday (no, you don't get an extra day just because I am late!!) Sneaky!!

Can I ask a question here? Well, I will - when is everyone else going to join in?? It would be so much fun with more entrants, and you might just win a prize through the year!

Think about it!!

Word Photo Challenge 2016 - Week 2

Welcome back everyone, to week 2 of our photo challenge for this year!

Firstly, let me say thank you to all you lovely people who had to many nice things to say about my shawls that I made last week!  I am really enjoying doing them so I may keep at it until it starts to irritate me, then move on to something else - maybe even some quilting. There is a second great grand child just waiting to be born any day now, so of course this one must get a quilt and everything also!

Okay, I'm here to show you my "bread" - this is not very original, I'm afraid. I left it all till the last minute and didn't even think about it, leading to a boring photo of a boring thing!!

So, with much embarrassment I bring to you my take on Bread:

So, join in now by filling in my Mr Linky below, and then we can all see your photo of bread!

If you are just passing through, join in below and we can all visit your blog as well!

See you tomorrow evening for the next weeks word.

Some Finished Work

Just thought I would drop by and show you all what I have done this past week.

The old mojo is returning slowly I think!

Here we are:

"Sunday Shawl " pattern by the Little Bee on Ravelry - really fast and easy pattern, I will definitely be making more of these!

Done in 8 ply, 5.50 hook - took about 2 days off and on.

This is the "Yes Yes Shawl" from Bernat, I've done it in  8ply acrylic and 4.50 hook.

Took a bit longer than the Sunday Shawl, but went along quickly once I got into that Zen place!

Another view of it, I apologise for the strange photos of it, I am tryiing to disguise a mistake I made right back at the beginning, and I was just too lazy to go back and fix it!

I'm probably the only one who will ever see it, but I don't want to risk it!!

Both shawls are earmarked for recipients, a few more to go and I will be ahead on birthday presents, at least!

Word Photo Challenge 2016 - Week 1

Welcome my friends to the first week of our Word Photo Challenge for 2016, I am very pleased that you are joining in!!

So, i was thinking to myself, "Now, what is red that I can take a photo of?" and I realised that the hotplate burns red when it is turned on, so that silly people (we won't mention who) don't stick their hands on it when it is hot!

So here it is:

My hotplate that glows red and bites!! I thought that the nasty thing was clean, but look at the crumbs!! Oh well, it's too late now...

So, join in now by filling in my Mr Linky below, and then we can all see your photo of red!

If you are just passing through, join in below and we can all visit your blog as well!

See you tomorrow evening for the next weeks word.
