Friday’s blog a private peak? Don’t look!

Hi there!
Thanks for dropping in.
How’s your Friday been thus far?
Ask me.
Go on, I dare you!
TGIF !!!

 No, not bad really.
A friend once told me that we have good days and growing days;
well this has been a 
GROWING DAY !!!!
Found this picture.
Ingenious face-painting; spoke to me today!
Time to squint again…
clever huh?
But d’you know what?
It ain’t over till the fat lady sings –
and she ain’t sung yet!
In fact….
Still time to go for a little stroll in the late sun with Dave.
The disused railway will be perfect. No slopes!
Let me go find the man.

Tomorrow begins a Groovi Week.
We have got some excellent, brand new Groovi Plates 
to show you, and I hope to blog some Groovi stuff !
love and hugs,

Love to both of you. Remember, take time to smell the flowers and enjoy each other's company. Love and hugs. xxx Maggie

  11. Its raining up here in South Ayrshire…only means more craft time. Glad that you and Dave have some sunshine and can get out for a gentle stroll. Helps to clear the mind. Looking forward to the Groovi week. Hugs xx

  12. Hi Barb, hope you and Dave are enjoying your wee stroll and glad Dave is well enough to get out and enjoy the countryside with you 🙂 Wish I could too, wish I could get out of here to anywhere, I'm climbing the walls, suffocating! Thank you for your posts, demos and banter, much appreciated :-). Beautiful sunflowers Dave got, only one of mine is flowering, something's been eating the growth tips, other than the slugs and snails. Hope you're both going to have a chill time this weekend. Maybe from you're Groovi week I'll see a step by step project that I won't need to think about so that I can climb aboard your Groovi train. Sending you both big bear hugs, love Brenda xx

    Hi Donna, hope you have a great time, thank you my friend xx

    Once again a massive thank you to all who have been so very kindly leaving me messages and hugs xx

    (sorry can't say any more words, unless it's aaaaaaaagh or tears, that about sums up my functioning level these days!!!)

    1. Hi Brenda it's ok to cry and be frustrated its natural try not to be so hard on yourself( that's what's my dr said to me on Wednesday ) thinking of you hopefully you can get in the groooooovi and start to feel better it does help it has helped me soooo much xxx

    2. Hi Brenda sending you a gentle hug my love. Let's hope you can get in the groove with Barbara next week. Know what you mean about sunflowers, planted 10 only 1 survived! Xxxxx

    3. Hi Brenda, glad you posted today wanted to say that I'm not sure about internet connection where I'm going so if I don't post its because I can't but I will be thinking of you still and wishing you a good week. Hoping your gardening went well today. Xx

  13. Hi Barb,
    Glad somewhere has got sun – not here in Durham – we've got the heating on!!! I'm pleased that Dave is able to go for a gentle stroll with you too. Looking forward to the Groovi week and all the new plates. I've been making a Xmas card today with the Xmas deer plate and I'm really pleased with it (& so was my Dave!) love Alison xxx

  14. Hi Barbara
    Looks like a lovely evening. Enjoy a gentle stroll with Dave. I am looking forward to the new Groovi plates. I am sure I will need to add them to my collection.
    X Chris

  15. Yep TGIF, my craft room is in desperate need of sorting but it's a lovely evening so naughty tea ie. Indian takeaway then after a lovely walk with the pooches and movie time. Enjoy your relaxing evening x

  16. A beautiful evening here, swallow are flying so it must be summer in God's country and pleased you have both been out for a stroll in the Garden of Eden (smiley face )

    Big hugs Pen x

  17. Oh my word ! The heat on ??? I thank God everyday , well almost for air conditioning . It's 88F today , but sunny and a breeze and humidity low for us at 44% . That's it here in Virginia beach ,virginia

  18. So pleased Dave can go for a short stroll with you beautiful fresh air in the country side
    Cannot wait for groovi week I know you said you had some new groovi plates coming out but was not sure now with Dave been ill . I can feel a falling of the wagon coming on big hugs xxx

  19. Just as well its the beginning of the month!! I wondered how you were going to 'launch' all the new stuff you would have tempted us with via the create and craft show. Only hope you haven't had Dave up all night making the new Groovi plates!!

  20. Sorry you've had a stressful day, Barbara, but I'm glad it ended with a relaxing stroll. I hope the sky where you are is clear enough for you to see the fantastic full moon out there. It's beautiful enough to be in one of your lovely artworks! 🙂 I heard that this one is called a blue moon, because it's the second one this month (very rare), and that's where the saying comes from, 'once in a blue moon'. I can't vouch for the accuracy of that, but I heard it from a good source. Hope you manage to see it. It's amazing.

  21. oooo more groooovies from Ms Gray, can't wait to see what you've got in store for us. meantime I think I'll go and howl at the moon,
    hope you both have a good weekend
    Linda

  22. What a lovely place to take a stroll! Clears your mind and fresh air is always good!
    Please send some of your southern warmth up to us…we had a bit of sun today but it still feels cold!
    Looking forward to see what you are going to tempt us with next…whatever it is I'm sure I will need it…at least I'll have something to write on my list for Catterick… If I can wait that long!

    And I promise not to sing!!!

    Love and hugs to you and Dave! Xxxx

  24. Well your bad day nearly over hope you enjoyed your wee walk and look forward to a no hassle weekend looking forwards to the groovi week will have loads of ideas for when I get mine.
    Take care…xx

  25. Hi Barbara I hope you and Dave enjoyed your gentle stroll, he must be glad to be allowed out in the fresh air. If has been a lovely sunny day down south hasn't it, it looks like you live in a very pretty place – hope you are not caught up with the lorries trying to cross the channel and being parked on the motor way. Enjoy a relaxing weekend
    Love Diane xxxx

  26. Just got in! Been at Leeds Castle watching an open air showing of Grease. Really cold and got a damp ar** sat there thinking of what my nan always said you got if you sit on damp ground! Had fun though singing along. I am hoping I can get the internet where I'm going if not a week of groovi to catch on when I get back. Xx

  27. Hi Barb, so looking forward to the new groovi plates, they are an inspiration and so easy to use I am loving them. Is there a heart on any of the new ones please.

    Enjoy Saturday everyone, stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

  28. Hello Barb, hope you had a good stroll. That picture of the face painting is pretty incredible. Looking forward to what you bring us with the new groovi plates. Take care. Bx

  29. And a sunny weekend is forecast. Enjoy both days and get out and soak up some vitamin D, much better than spending the day on a motorway or in a windowless studio.
    Wishing Dave a continued recovery and some breathing space for you both.
    Kelly

  30. By the time i'm reading this post it is Saturday so the week is over and the weekend is here – yippee. I hope you enjoyed your walk and it was a nice way to close the week and prepare for the weekend
