T stands for TUeSdAY....or nearenough!

 AS always I'm late joining The T ParTy over on Bleubeard and Elizabeth's AlTered Book Lovers Blog...but I guess, beTTer laTe than never, or as my old MaThs Teacher used to say, BeTTer Never LaTe... Been quite busy doing stuff like....laying artificial grass over a crumbly path and ripping up old books I found whilst in the attic and the days and nights seem to drift into one long splodge of, nothingness. Above is my cold cup of TEA and some Mod Splodge and the ripped up pages. Might dip all those strips into some cold coffee later!

I had Lola for the weekend. A few weeks back she was attached by....the vet said....a cat. She was left completely paralysed in both back legs. Lola...she was a showgirl. With yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down- I'll stop there, you know the song. Anyway, as soon as I saw her, I said straight away, that I thought she'd most likely been grabbed and then dropped by a big bird, because there were no scratches to her anywhere except a large claw  gouge in her side and like pin holes further down, and  I mean, a cat couldn't leave a dog  paralysed, even if it was bigger than her! 

Grass. 😱It looks better than it did.

At one point the vet suggested amputating the worse leg😡 and even having her put down. No! 😱 I think I may have said this before... I'll come back to it in a minute...

Views of Party...Lots of food and drink. There was a bouncy slide there too!

Some weeks before I'd been invited to a party, and the evening before, had a message from Caroline, asking if I'd do some face painting in the afternoon of the party, coz there'd be loads of kids. I used to do a lot of Face Painting, decades ago! Dressed as a Clown. So that meant a trip up the ladder and into the Attic... scarrry place. I found my bag... also think I found some woodworm! (must get that seen to, just in case) 

 

 Anyway, Lola loved the party, the kiddies loved Lola and took her off on a trolly for a ride around the field. (See that little red trolly in the picture...oh, let me add quickly that Lola is fully recovered, maybe has the odd drag of one of her feet, but she mangaed to pull Tigger, the large hot water bottle cover, all the way down the hall to the living room. (This is usually the first thing she does when she comes to stay)

Yesterday Caroline nipped round with some flowers as a thank you for doing the Face Painting...and said I had another booking! (as I said to Angela, not what I thought I'd be doing in 2023!)

Above, another cold cup of tea and the start of a pop up card. It's really late so I'd better post this! Pop over to AlTered Book Lovers to see more Tuesday teasers. More tomorrow in WOYWW. Thanks for stopping by.
