A lucky day is a watercolor painting in landscape format painted by artist Karen Kaspar
The watercolor painting is built up of many layers of different bright fresh green tones and shows the abstracted detail of a wildflower meadow with many four-leaf clovers. On one of the clovers sits a red ladybird with black dots. Due to the strong complementary contrast between red and green, this little lucky ladybird is the focus of the picture and attracts attention. The four-leaf clovers and the ladybird are symbols of luck. I wish you that this picture brings a lot of luck and joy into your home.
Good morning and Dzień Dobry to all of the Creekers, Geeks, people in the Epstein Files that need to be arrested and if necessary beheaded, and fans of Lou Reed.
Morning, friends! 🌍 The #EU is more than policies—it’s people. Millions of allies across Europe are rooting for us and standing with us. Today, remember we’re not alone in this journey. Have a beautiful day, citizens of #Europe! #ReJoinEU#GoodMorning#FBPE
Good morning everyone ☀️ I'm up early with the parrots again today, and just as well, because I have an ultrasound later and I can't eat or drink anything but black tea or water for 6 hours before it, so my early start at least allows me to have a coffee or two. I can go without food all day no bother, but coffee - never! 😊
Ziggy is currently sitting in my hand happily grumbling away while the sound of Toby crunching pellets and the white noise of the air filters makes me drowsy. I woke up at 1:30 am and never managed to get back to sleep after that, so it's going to be hard not to doze off in a meeting today! Although, I have to drink 1 ltr of water 90 minutes before my appointment so I think I'll probably be dancing instead 😂
Work in a wee while first though as soon as I have Ziggy ( who has now gone down beside me on the couch and is nipping my side and making her "tee hee hee" noises as I squirm ) sorted.
I topped up last night... in my loaner van.. 🤔
I'm going to notice price jumps now.
I was 12 hrs on the road yesterday, didn't expect everything to go well, & I wasn't disappointed.
Looking through an arched window forty-eight minutes after sunrise the blue sky is filled with complex, chunky white clouds. Pointed roofs of Harlem brownstones with red brickwork are across the street, and a taller apartment building can be seen in the distance. The window is grimy on the bottom.
Looking through an arched window nine minutes before sunrise the sky fades from yellow at the horizon to blue-purple up above, and is filled with pink and gray clouds. Pointed roofs of Harlem brownstones are silhouetted across the street, and a taller apartment building can be seen in the distance. The window is grimy on the bottom.
Good morning and Dzień Dobry to all of the Creekers, Geeks, people who drove to their hometown with their two dogs and they're staying at their parent's house but the chaos is insane and you just forgot to put the coffee pot under the drip because your father's dog was trying to eat your dog's food and you were trying to keep things under control and so now coffee is all over the counter and under everything, and fans of Elmo & Patsy.
Last night, I learned, that if you put a candy cane in a hot glue gun, it will melt and you can use it like hot glue.
Which is helpful when making a gingerbread house.
Just putting that information out there.
So, yea.
Have a great one.
EDIT: As others have rightly pointed out, glue guns are not designed for food prep. This is outside of the norm for this device. So, YMMV and there may be issues with trace metals or plastics from the glue gun itself getting into your liquid candy cane. But it DOES actually work and it does make, crafting a decorative gingerbread house a LOT faster.
Wearing another "Ugly" Christmas sweater today at work. Today is my new Pokemon sweater. Loving this one. The selfie is included but marked as sensitive for those who need it.
Selfie of a balding, bearded white man wearing a green, white, and red sweater against a light colored wall. The sweater is an "Ugly Christmas Sweater" with a green top covered in white snowflakes. There are two red stripes with outlines of red and green Pokeballs beneath that. Underneath that section are the outlines of Pokemon faces (bulbasaur and pikachu are visible). The sleeves mirror that striped look.
Puppy Hearts by Lisa S Baker is a whimsical portrait inspired by the gentle, soulful expression of a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Surrounded by colorful hearts, flowers, and playful details, this artwork celebrates pure affection, sweetness, and the quiet way dogs hold our hearts without ever trying.
Ein Rotkehlchen sitzt am frühen Morgen auf einem Baum und begrüßt den neuen Tag mit einem schönen Lied. Der Morgenhimmel leuchtet in zarten Pastellfarben in Blau, Gelb und Pink in diesem Acrylgemälde in Hochformat von Karen Kaspar.
