More Op Shop Buys

 The pink doily's and the roll of paper below both cost ten cents. There are 20 doily's.  The paper is a sort of ice blue colour and is iridescent and has feint lines running through it.

Thanks for dropping by!  {{HUGS}} from me to YOU:-)

I Just Made This!

 These are photo's of a Vegetable Tart I made about an hour ago.  I went to an Op Shop yesterday and bought 6 recipe books for $1.

This was one of the recipes in one of the books.  I liked the sound of the recipe so decided to make it today.  It tastes YUMMY and I will definitely be making it again sometime!
It has a base of puff pastry with roast vegetables on top.
I know what's for dinner tonight!

I Passed!

Yippee! I passed my two NZISA tests at the Ice Rink yesterday!  We had to show we were proficient  ten various skills on the ice to pass.  

My next class starts next week and goes for four weeks.   

I stopped going to the roller skating rink about 8 weeks ago as it was way too far to travel and I was gone the entire day all for a 45 minute lesson on the rink.

The rink used to be an outdoor rink so is built on a slight slope.  I got to the point where I wasn't enjoying it and believe it or not, it was colder there than on the ice rink!  

I am enjoying it on the ice far more than I did on the roller skating rink and am doing much better. 

I  went roller skating for about 8 weeks and in that entire time only one person in the class actually spoke to me.  I found it a bit weird.

The ice rink is different.  Everyone speaks to everyone!  We laugh a lot & have a great time.  It feels more friendly.

Okay, I just had to share this bit of happy news with you!

Thanks for dropping in & I hope your week is going well!

Cat's n' Cards

 Above is "Bella" asleep in her bed.  She had her chin resting on the side & looked so comfy!

 This is "Ro-Ro" standing on his tail!  He does this all the time!  Maybe he's keeping his feet warm?  Does this mean I have to knit him some woolly slippers?!

 This is an update on the two wedding cards I made. (see earlier posts)  I stamped the wedding words on some card & used my SU tab punch to punch it out.

I made the horse shoes using my Nestability dies.  So easy!

Thanks fro visiting, enjoy your day!

How To Relax

This is how you relax...if you're a cat!  He was catching the sun one day and kept having to move slightly as the sun moved.

He had just had a big game with the blue mouse which is by his left paw.

I posted this as an experiment to  see if it would publish.  It did, so I am REALLY hoping things are working again.

Thanks for visiting, enjoy your weekend!  {{HUGS}} from me to YOU:-)

Cards, Maybe?

 There is definitely something weird going on with my computer.  I loaded up FOUR card images and only three are showing up.  I am totally baffled as to what is going on, all I now is it is driving me insane. (Read posts below to see what has been happening)

 Anyway these are some of the Telescope cards I have been making lately.  With all the problems I have had with my computer it seems like ages ago I made the cards.  In reality it was only a week ago!

The 'open' photo of this card has been gobbled up by the gremlin that is hiding in my computer, if I can find the card I will publish it here.

Thanks so much for visiting, {{HUGS}} from me to YOU:-)

Please excuse me now, I have to go and scream and tear my hair out.... and dare I say it, have another go at fixing this computer problem.  I will be back!

It's not working, again...

Aaaarrrggghh!!  I am STILL having problems uploading my photo's to my blog and it is driving me crazy.  I have spent hours trying to fix the problem.  If only I knew what he problem was!  I thought it was my pop-up blocker behaving badly so I checked that but I am still having problems.

I even got a friend to upload photos to my blog from his computer and it worked, but when I try it, it doesn't work!

Having said that, I did manage to load some photo's this morning, but when I go back to load more...NOTHING happens!!

I honestly don't know what else to do.   Talk about testing my blood pressure; I know just what you mean "Lorraine"!!

Oh well, back to TRYING AGAIN!

Thanks fro dropping in, even though there are no photo's on this post!
