This week's smiles....week 131

Happy Friday to you all.  What a lovely lot of you joined in last week....we had so much to smile about :-)  Thank you to each and every one of you for helping to make the world a happier place to be.

I'm featuring Kate's post from last week.  Kate joins in almost every week and has so much to smile about her life over in Spain.  Last week she added a cartoon that really made me chuckle because since we had to have our one little dog put to sleep her brother has followed me from room to room and if I sit down he likes to sit as close to me as he can.....the cartoon could have been written/drawn with him in mind :-)  Thanks Kate for sharing it.

My smiles this week have been many and the first pic proves my point......



I had gone out into the garden to snap a few pics and the moment I sat down Rocky was sat at my side.....He's an old man now and sleeps a lot of the time.....that is until he hears me get up to move :-)




I thought you might like to share the flowers in our back garden at the mo so I've put them together as a collage for you.....so many of them have self-seeded and come free with our new home and each and every one of them makes me smile.



Here's a quick snap of the latest progress with the building....the footings have now been built and have been back filled.  Next week they are coming back to start the walls and will soon be coming to make a start on my sewing room 
 :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

My last pic is for all you gardening experts out there.  This is one of the plants we inherited and have waited to see what it might turn out to be when it came into bloom.....but now it has we have no idea what it is.

Do any of you know what it might be? [You should be able click on the pic if you want a closer look].



Thanks for popping over to share my smiles.  Please link yours up below and I will be over to see what has been making you smile as soon as I'm able.  Have a great week.
Hugs,

WOYWW....

Happy Wednesday to all my wonderful bloggy friends that call by every week to check out what I've been up to.....not an awful lot this week to be honest is the easy answer because I'm a little off colour.  My gorgeous little twinnie munchkins share everything with me......including their bugs :-(

What I have got to show you is...



My darling hubby had to lift our table into the middle of the room this week so I could tackle metres and metres of heavy cotton drill type fabric for a job I've been asked to do this week.

Where is that big sister of mine when she's needed?....answer is she's a little too far away at the mo to be able to call her for help.....but, all being well, she will be a lot closer very very soon        :-) :-) :-) :-)


This what I had to make.....a zipped and shaped chair pad cushion cover.  But of course it wasn't just one I had to make......


I had to make 6 cushion covers all with matching striped pattern....ta da.  Here they are all done and phew it took every little bit of my energy to make them.



The other thing I'm sharing with you this week is a mystery.  As you know we have garden treasures popping up in every corner of our new garden.  Most I can identify even if we have to wait to see what colour the blooms will be but these are really a mystery.  The leaves are too wide for daffodils and the wrong shape for tulips etc.  They are already about 8" plus in height and still growing and so far there are no signs of blooms coming.

Do any of you have any ideas as to what they can be?  We will be watching their growth with interest and if blooms emerge I promise to share their developments with you.






Thanks for dropping by this week. Please leave me a little message and I will pop over to yours to say hello.
Hugs,
