WWC - made it on time!

The words for this week are Phone & Keys.

 

  

I figure they are pretty obvious ;)

If you want to see more submissions, have a look on my side bar. The Weekly Words Challenge is brought to us by Janet from Fond of Snape.

Have a good day all.

Oh my!

What a week! All 7 days of it! I worked for the boss, plus my shifts. Normally that is not a hard thing to do, but I haven't gone to the Dr. yet about getting this exhaustion thing figured out. So, that is why I have not even been commenting this week - I will remedy that over the next few days.

In the meantime, I have missed a few of the Weekly Words Challenges, so here they are.

Weather & Mail

 

This was from my phone over the summer a little blurry, but I love the hole in the clouds.

Weather here has been warm, this branch has been catching the drips from the roof I guess.

 

This is my view from the office - mail boxes.

We have these by each of the mailboxes as people tend to forget to forward their mail.

Animal & Mineral

 

Alberta beef (sorry vegetarians)

 

Salt, on a blue plate under a blue light. (I was playing)

I think I am ready now to do Phone & Keys on Tuesday, which would have me caught up ;)

For more WWC check out my sidebar, Janet from Fond of Snape is the current hostess and is doing a grand job.

Have a good weekend.

So, this was Thursday...

I opened the curtains to this:

 

So, I decided to do this:

Leek, Broccoli & Potato Soup

(from scratch - with bacon)

Have a good day all ;)

WWC: Food & Drink

The Weekly Words Challenge this week brings us the words Food & Drink.

Sibu's food & drink.

A better choice than bottles for drinking water.

My food & drink.

Our new hostess is Janet (from Fond of Snape) is getting the hang of things. Next weeks words are Friends & Family. If you would like to join or see more offerings check out my sidebar for links.

Have a good day all.

The time has come...

to add the hated word verification to the blog. My apologies all, I hate it as much as you do.

So, these are what I have to wear wrapped around my arm - every day.

This is what it looks like after I take them off.

Five days left! Then we order me a new sleeve to wear every day for the next six months and do it all over again.

Have a good day all ;)

WWC: Chip & New

It's still Tuesday, so I'm not too late ;) The words for this Week's Word Challenge are Chip & New. Please click to enlarge.

I know, weird place for a chip!

Some people have chips on their shoulders.

Paint chips on my new chair.

My new down winter coat - keeps my knees warm.

My new bookmark. 

It is called a BookRug, this pattern is from the rug that covered Freud's couch.

That's it for another week, check out my side bar for other participants.

Have a good evening.

Eminent Eights

8 TV shows I watch:

• Cold Case
• Chuck
• Fringe

• I can't afford to eat out
  
• Boston Pizza
• Home
  
• Quizno's

8 things I look forward too:

• Winning the lotto - who's buying me a ticket?
• Getting back into a shape that is based on the human form as opposed to the whale-esque form I am currently sporting
• Energy
• Someone giving me a car?
• or a job?
• Health
• Spring

8 things I did yesterday:

• Worked

• Read
• Tidied up
• Coloured my hair
• Told you it was a bore
  

8 things I love about winter:

• Yeah, right
• No, seriously
• Okay, no bugs
• All the city stench is usually frozen
• But then so am I
• Laughing at the snow closures for an inch of snow (I kid because I love you all)
• The glorious clear blue sky
• Christmas - but I miss my fireplace
  

8 things I am passionate about:

• Reading
• Sibu (my cat)
• My camera
• This is hard

8 things I have learned in the past:

• Karma is a bitch - act accordingly
  
• if you've ever peed using the back bumper of a truck (for support), you might be a redneck
• If you've ever frozen to the bumper...you must be a misplaced southern redneck
• learn to laugh at all the shit life thows your way, otherwise you spend most of your time with a stuffy nose and red eyes - not attractive
  
• if you open your mind - amazing things will enter
• Common sense isn't so common
• Backbone can't be taught or lent to someone
• Patience only works the first couple of times, then you have to pull out the bitch
  

For those of you still here by this point... WAKE UP! It's over. I will not be tagging anyone, but please feel free to do this on your own.

Have a great day all.
