Twaddle on Tuesday

 

See that above picture? I want to do a rug from it. I think it would be a cool rug if I could capture it in wool. I have been thinking about it for about a month. I had to go through my pictures to find it. Since it is going to be another warm day, I can open the house and dye wool. I would love to see if I could make these colors. That is what is so much fun about dyeing wool. Matching colors in nature.

I had a nice birthday. I have such a nice family. Dear sweet Emilie, sent flowers to me. One thing that is very handy is having a daughter who is a florist. Here is the lovely arrangement she sent.

Such happy flowers!

My Sister-in-law brought a plant to me. I have no idea what it is or where to plant it. So if any of you have an idea I would really appreciate it.

Mystery Plant

Last week Ron and I both were under the weather. It doesn't happen too often when we are both under the weather at the same time. It happened though, and well, we both were pretty grumpy and out of sorts. I noticed that in my Netflix cue there was The Minion movie. So we watched it together. We laughed and pretty soon we were not so grumpy and I was reminded that laughter really is the best medicine.
Yesterday, for my birthday he came in with my birthday presents.

I told Ron I liked Bob best because he likes animals and made friends with this rat he found in the sewer. I guess why it made me laugh so much is because when the kids were young and we would have kittens they would carry the kittens around the way Bob carried that rat. I just thought it was so cute. Anyway, I know that my kids wouldn't get the references in that movie so it must be made for grandparents. I think I could watch any of those silly movies every single day.  Ron's favorite is the big yellow guy. I can't remember his name.

Then of course a lovely card that made my day from sweet and dear Pom Pom. So it was a very nice day.

I wanted to show you my chicken rug all finished. I think it turned out kind of cute. At least this one has a straight binding.

I hope you have a lovely Tuesday.
