Silly ....

............ If people never did silly things,

nothing intelligent would ever get done.

Ludwig Wittgenstein, 1889-1951

Austrian-British Philosopher



Blogger has changed. I can't say my say in Word and copy and paste. So if there is anyone out there who can tell me where I have taken a wrong turning, please do, otherwise, my pics may be there but my words won't.

Take hold of your own life.
See that the whole existence is celebrating.
These trees are not serious,
these birds are not serious.
The rivers and the oceans are wild,
and everywhere there is fun,
everywhere there is joy and delight.
Watch existence,
listen to the existence
and become part of it.

- Osho

Take care all and have a wonderful weekend.

I played ...

.... with a 'cup of soup' box, modge podge, bits of string, tin foil, a brayer and alcohol inks!

It looks a bit like a battle field in the hills at mid-day!

Take it, twist it, turn it and change it, this way and that! It's yours to do with what you will! But please don't abuse it, i.e. don't sell it as your own creation, in any way or form. And please let me know and see how you do use it!

Take care and be good to yourselves.

I know …..

……. I have been pretty pathetic lately. Guilty as charged Your Honour!

Where the time has gone, I do not know. Where the challenges have gone, I do not know. I’ve missed so many buses lately. Like this one from Jeanette at http://jeanette-soartfulchallenges.blogspot.com Blogger is playing silly buggers or I am doing something wrong. I can't link!

When I printed out the image, I got a rather washed out look and so changed the colours and then tried to reprint it and gremlins took over and changed the size too! How spooky looking is this?

I am now going to hibernate. Being an African, I can! See you in the Spring/Fall! Maybe before, then and only if and when I can fathom out what is actually happening with blogger!

Take care all those from the North enjoying the sunshine and those of us in South, snuggle!
Hugs and good wishes

Lame ...

.... I know and I missed the bus at Hilda's

I am trying to link the challenge and blogger is not playing nice! Gosh have I been gone sooo long that chances have passed me by so fast that only if I become supersonic will I catch up!
I want to do some art but this cyber-supersonic-crap is cramping my style!
I am now going to bed, since it's past pumpkin hour and I am about to turn into a butternut!
Take care.

Missed the Bus …..


….. Yip, I did it again. Thought I had all the time in the world to do the challenge over at LotsToDo


This little ATC didn't make it. I used the background technique from Jann and the packaging tape transfer from whoever originally perfected it. I think there are many 'claims to fame' for this one.



Oh well, I’ll have to try again!




Or, I’ll have to be trying, again and again and again!


Take care everyone and keep creating!

Happy Valentine's .....

..... Love is so exquisitely elusive. It cannot be bought, cannot be badgered, cannot be hijacked. It is available only in one rare form: as the natural response of a healthy mind and healthy heart.
Eknath Easwaran


(Unknown Freebie)

I like not only to be loved, but also to be told that I am loved. I am not sure that you are of the same mind. But the realm of silence is large enough beyond the grave. This is the world of light and speech, and I shall take leave to tell you that you are very dear."
George Eliot

(Dover Free Image)
I could not have said this any better or more eloquently.


I love my Hubby, my children, my family and friends and I love and appreciate all those generous ladies out there in blogland. Though we have not personally met, you are very special to me. It is wonderful having an ‘extended family’ don’t you think, I Do!

Have a wonderful Loving Valentine’s Weekend.

Hugs and Love

I made a …………………….

………………. CARD! I have no idea who it’s for but I made a card! I think my mojo came back with Cora's most delightful young Princess dancing amongst the flowers.

It’s about time, about my mojo, that is! She/he has been missing/hiding/running away/playing hookie/silly buggers/annoying and being down right RUDE! Since when does something/someone just go/disappear, without a cheerio or how’s your father or a word about how long, where, why, when or what? Holidays are O V E R HunnyBun! It’s shoulder to the wheel and/or grindstone time. Translated that means getting back to some sort of routine fun time, creating time and having a blast time. All those in favour, please leave a comment!
And this is my card and my Ramble for the day LOL!

Take care and let’s keep encouraging and inspiring each other. We’re Really All We've Got!

Hugs
