Nice Quiet Day
It's been a lovely day today I took Bertie out this morning and we went with a couple of his friends that he socialises with and they had great fun! My Grandson came with us because he's been staying since Friday and we went out food shopping on Friday so at least I had some muscles to carry the heavy stuff LOL
'The Hubster' continues to behave himself and I've been making him potter around to try and get some strength into his legs instead of lazing in his recliner!
My card is an LOTV bear image and I've made it for my neighbours husband..he has dementia bless him but he's such a sweet heart and loves to get my cards.
I've put 2 photo's of Bertie and his chums on to show you what a fab day we had hope you enjoy...take care and lots of huggles xxxxxxx Sue xxxxxxxxx

Trying To Watercolour
Hi everyone! all is well here thank goodness so I've had a crafty play in my craft room. I haven't tried to water colour for absolutely ages so a kind friend of mine sent me a video of how she uses her distress inks...so I've had a little play with this cute LOTV image and a die I have never used which I found lurking in the back of a draw. I saw a card done with the die and I thought I'm sure I've got that die???? lol
Bertie has been out with his dog walker today for a couple of hours with some of his friends ..you put his harness on and he just goes to the front door and lays down until Isabel comes he absolutely loves her and his doggie friends. 'The Hubster' hasn't got his appetite back fully yet so I'm going to try and bribe him with a cottage pie dinner which he normally scoffs down lol so we'll see how it goes.
Take care and hope everyone is well and lots of hugs xxxxxxx Sue xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Just For You
Well 'the hubster' is finally home thank goodness and fingers crossed no more hospital stays in the near future! Bertie went totally bonkers and at this moment in time they are having a quiet nap together while I did some crafting.
I used this gorgeous digi image from Mo's Digital Pencils which I must admit they are becoming a favourite of mine to colour. The card is to send to my friend in Scotland she is fed up of all the snow so I thought I would cheer her up lol.
Bertie and I went for a stroll on the beach yesterday just to let him zoom about and let off some energy but the log he picked up was just a tad too big!!! and I reckon that water was freezing but he doesn't give a hoot lol
Take care everyone I'm off to make 'the hubster's' tea lots of huggles xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sue xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Cuddle Puts Everything Alright
Love this image that I received from Mo's Patreon club...it's so nice to get a cuddle off your favourite friend. 'The hubster' is still in hospital but things are looking up for him coming home! soon thank goodness.
It's been freezing here over the past week really shivery cold..Bertie of course just loves any kind of weather to romp and play in while his poor old mother freezes to death LOL We finally have a new fence in the back garden! and it looks a lot stronger than the one that got blown down but it had been up a good number of years! feel all safe and secure now and so do the neighbours. Oh and happy valentines day to you all!
Take care and lots of huggles xxxxxxxxxxx Sue xxxxxxxxxxxxx
