And up we go ..

Make yourself indispensable,
and you will move up
Act as though you are indispensable,
and you will move out

I am looking forward to another day
filled with toast, tea and shuffle board !

  1. But sometimes those "indoor" cozy days are the best! I hope you and your kids enjoy it and don't get bored! :)

  2. I kind of like horrible weather as long as it doesn't appear one too many times. Sounds like a sweet day...and I love your photo (again).

    Hugs from the other side of the world....

  6. HALLO MIJN LIEVE VRIENDIN! We had a TON of snow fall today and it is getting chilly! But it is cozy and it is an opportunity to get creative although I had a lot of grading of tests to do for my 50 kids! Do you get snow out there?

    Here is wishing you dearest one and wonderful SUNDAY! BISOUS, Anita

  13. Although I do love bright and sunny days wit blue skies, I think cozy stay home days are just as special, especially if they fall on the weekend and you can stay home all snuggly! Enjoy and have a great day. :) Tammy

  30. Horrible weather: Yes! unfortunately...
    Shuffle boarding: No! unfortunately...
    Iron boarding: Yes! ...unfortunately...
    But that won't get us down, all those people having a flood in their houses now, that's much worse! I wish for blue skies, no more rain and al lot of courage for all of them!
    And a staircase like the one you've been showing us in your latest posts(is this really your house???)to go UP!
    Have a great week with hopefully blue skies!

  31. Lieve Saskia, we had horrible weather as well - but today was friendly and sunny. For my taste, the hwole of winter could be like that - 2 weeks of snow and chill would do for me! The best thing in winter is being able to wear boots - which i love. And blogging! Your photo is gorgeous! Fijne zondag avond!
    P.S.: if the mag hasn't arrived yet, it will soon. My husband kept waiting till we finished all the envelops, so it got out here on friday. Sorry for being late ;)
