Happy late T stands for T day on Tuesday and 2nd on a Tuesday too!
Just a very quickie T Stands for Tuesday....a 'short post'... as isn't really Tuesday and I'm all completely up to my eyes in... 'STUFF' Tom's (SIL) come to my rescue again with another yummy looking coffee stop over from one of his very long bike rides, I think he had a cake too, but he ate that! AND! I found a 2nd on a Tuesday, so will join in with that too....seeing I can't link up with T for Tuesday!
| A short post... |
And here's my hot chocolate with fluffy milk....although, this isn't the one I just made, as I've already drunk that!

It's Time for T stands for Tuesday and The 2nd on The Second
Not sure if this is a Tyrannosaurus or a Tarbosaurus! But he was very big and roared very loudly! Taken at The Eden Project. It's very hot and steamy down in the Cornwallish Jungle!
I don't think Mr Jinx would've liked him! "Giv me Treats!"
And a Blast from the Past to celebrate the end of Oc'tomb'er, when I was on the Quirky Crafts DT Team. "Giv Us A Treat!" this was for 2nd on T Second post ( 2nd on The Second at Altered Book Lover) but I couldn't find anything on a Tuesday on the 2nd back in the past, or anything to include a rainbow... but there is red and orange and yellow in it! So this was the closest I could get! This one was on a Monday in October 2014!
Now, back to this month.... The picture above shows us at a Town meeting we went to. That's us with our backs to you! They want to build 170 odd houses, bungalows and flats (flats??crazy!!)in a small field in a tiny country lane near a Nature Reserve. "No way, José”!
The Grandkiddies are now out of self isolation! They're feeling fine and are having lots of fun!
And, did you know? It's only 53 more days till Christmas!! Happy November!! Have a great 'T For Tuesday' day. And a 2nd of a Tuesday too!! Thank you for stopping by!

WOYWW #836 and a Late T for Tuesday
Evening! And a happy WOYWWednesday to you. And a belated T for Tuesday! I, me, myself have actually been crafting! (yes and covering more boxes, and watering and weeding and cutting hedges...it's all in the picture) but no, real crafting...trying to make a quicky Birthday Card but but BUT! I suddenly had dogs to do. Yay! (get out of the untidy messy crafty house and into the sunshine!!) Above crafty picture is what I've been doing... colouring some Lawn Fawn stamped images ....a bird table with birds and squirrels. Well, that's what's in the garden of where I've been House/dog/sitting, with Remi and Bronte, so I thought that would be a good idea for a card... Just gotta make the background (sky/grass, you know)
The Lawn Fawn video of this set, has the bird table hanging from the tree....and the feeder (which in real life should be a lot smaller) on a pole...o....kay... So, I'm trying to make my feeder be in the front and the bird table in the background...anyway! we will see when I've finished it! I've just gotta go hunt out my 'clouds' stencil...and some blue ink.... Haven't found my clouds stencil yet, but I did find last years WOYWW ATC cards...(5 left out of nine) I've called them, 'A Walk Through The New Forest' and I can't even remember making them! Odd that I haven't squeezed a New Forest Pony in there somewhere! First thing this morning, I had a play with Frankie...He has the biggest mouth ever! Always smiling!! (It's a wonder he doesn't swallow the ball!)Tuesday, 3 June 2025
It's Tuesday...
...so it must be T stands for Tuesday T day. I've only just, yesterday, set up my laptop after once again, unexpectedly, being away dog/house sitting again last week, when suddenly, it came up on the screen, 'Battery Dangerously Low! Yep....I'd forgotten to plug it in...Anyway! Can't miss T for Tuesday-hosted by Elizabeth and Bleubeard. The 'green' is my own mix of loads a different fruit and spinage with...Coconut water. Different but quite nice! And, the yellow, I showed you last week...not my usual Turmeric and Ginger Tea bag but my own mix...I used the little coffee jug to strain out all the bits! See how I mangered to get the word 'Tea' in the glass, clever huh? Short and sweet this week! Thank you for stopping by!

House dOg Sitting WOYWW #828 And A Tea For TUesday!
Hello! Morning, afternoon! Sorry I haven't been around! Not enough hours in the day!! Happy WOYWW!? As for the coming up ATCs swap for the Anniversary, I'm definitely joining in with that!! I'm house/dog sitting for at least another week and a bit. So>>>not a lot of Crafty stuff done...although I have been stamping with a new stamp and die bug set by AALL &CREATE< which arrived in the week with other crafty stuff...and made a 'no cutting' box, hmmm yes...I nipped home on Monday and took dogs with me, to fill my garden waste bin...only to find out later, that I hadn't paid for this year...so they didn't take it....how mean!? It's still April after all....never mind, it's all 'bin' sorted out now.
I really like the stamp and die set. The bugs are quite big. The only thing is, when you die cut them, the Fig number is a little too close, so on some of them and bits get cut off....
I'm joining in with Altered Book Lover's T For Tuesday with my cup of Ginger and Turmeric Oraganic Infusion...quite tasty. I've actually saved some of this tea in a jar...was going to show you that last week, and some T dying, but with the Kitchen still an on going and the dogs I ran out of time...

Lola in the sunroom in the pram
WELL, it's very hot in the sun room...so it's time to go do something else. And seeing I'm dog sitting, I'm taking them all (Lola's here too) back to mine, to do my other bins, ready for tomorrows rubbish collection. It's all go here!...Thank you for stopping by.

Happy T stands for Tuesday! And a belated St Patrick's Day!
a lot of papercups about, once containing coffee or tea...or even hot chocolate!
If I open the cupboard door at the moment, apart from workmens tools, I'd find more cups and elsewhere...the odd paint brush in a papercup... and then, there's always Cola...
Well, not much food and drink this week. My boring breakfast is near enough the same, but in the living room, as the breakfast bar has gone. In the background you can see 'some' of the kitchen stuff piled up-
and guess whose arm that is on the TV? It's Ceri The Crafter's! I hope he doesn't mind!
One last picture, apart from going shopping with Daughter, and having a birthday meal with family (forgot to take pictures) I had some company over the weekend...Lola came to stay. She loves going out in the doggy pram...Don't forget to pop over to see what BleuBeard and Elizabeth have been up to! Thank you for stopping by!

T stands for Tuesday, a tear and tea,
A quick post today, for Tea Stands for Tuesday. (and for once it is still Tuesday!)I'm still up to my eyes or even my nose in kitchen stuff in the living room, bedrooms hall....you get the picture! Nowhere really to go...so sneaking in here, (in my craft room)while the workmen are working, seemed a very good idea! My breakfast was just a bit of toast, with cup of tea, and fruit juice, of course, as I was shooting off

| Duke having a dip in the river |
early to visit Duke (past of a doggy package of Duke and Dexter) and to say good bye, very sad, very tearfull, but his owners really feel sad that, that time has come. He's in a lot of pain and there's nothing more the vets can do. Of course, when they saw me they (the dogs that is!) went crazy, luckily I had plenty of doggy treats and their favourite chews with me.(for the dogs, not the owners!)
Then later, I visited past cat customers, (Kittle) who remembered I love boxes, and had saved me one! I can see gold and pink papers on this one...and finally...Update on the kitchen...fridgefreezer, dishwasher, washing machine plumbed in and working, still trying to workout how to 'wash quick but spin high!' The cooker's in too, I'll show you that tomorrow! Right, that's it! I'm still catching up on last weeks T for Tuesday, so see you later. Oh, and it's my birthday tomorrow! Another year older...Thank you for stopping by!

A very Late T for Tuedsay
Yes! I know. I always get the d and the s in Tuesday wrong!! So! Happy T day, on a Thursday and not a Tuesday....although I think this has been posted on a Tuedsay. I've had so much going on all week that I really don't know what day it is! My boring breakfast with an egg this time, and my normal kombucha tea drink, plus another fruit drink, are above... Started clearing out cupboards, ready for when they start the kitchen remake...Christmas mugs are nearly re-homed, there's just these ones left...
And I started clearing the side drive, ready for when the meter people come next week. They need to put in a pipe, I need to get the presure-hose out...plus wet suit and googles...
Text came through to take my blood pressure twice a day for two weeks....What is a good reading I want to know. And talking of 'pressure'...then the boiler decided to leak! Not as bad as two Christmas ago, but still very distressing! They are coming out Friday...meanwhile, towels and a bowl are doing a great job...And I'm keeping my eye on the gage 24/7! If the black and red dials touch the boiler leaks!
The kitchen man came...my kitchen is too small for an island, I knew that. I want an extention, but I've been talked down on that (and I don't really want to fill in the pond)...it's been suggested that I take my breakfast bar away, where am I going to eat?? Changes are being made to my cooker, fridge, washing machine, dishwasher... When it's all planed out I can go see it on a TV scene....it will be fab. Honest. Can't wait. And yes....I will take pictures.

Happy T day...and Happy WOYWW!? #814
This was our T Time Spread at Daughter's for Christmas Day evening. Oliver was helping. Above top, is my T for Tuesday's Breakfast.... wasn't sure which drink to choose, so added what I had. (Fridge needed clearing out anyway) I chose Beetroot in the end, as it needed finishing up....Probably drunk too much...did you know it turns your pee, pink!
And this is what I was doing a few minutes ago. This afternoon I had a happy-mail package from Craftstash...two Papersociety Boxes and two lots of magnets with clear see-through envelopes bundles...These magnet sheets are soooo much thinker than the ones I have been buying, so much so, they wouldn't fit inside their envelopes...so's here's me chomping them down a tad, so I can get them in and close the flap down...Really very pleased with these....so tomorrow, I'll be back taking all the dec's out of their boxes, putting them in bags and then taking the empty boxes up the ladder to the attic...then the bags...one at a time... and refilling the boxes.... I was thinking I'd leave them in the Man-cave or the garage but... I'm getting a new Kitchen! Something my John promised and wanted to do himself. I've been told I need to clear all my kitchen cabinets out so I need the space in the bedrooms, hall, garage, and man-cave for all the kitchen things and boxes of cans and food etc.... my life is never boring...just very complicated! Hope you all have had a Happy T day and a Happy WOYWW!? too. Thank you for stopping by.
