I Believe it's T-Day
coffee here |
Oh my, what does that mean? It means that this is my post for T stand for Tuesday, with Elizabeth and Bluebeard , and a chance to wander around and see what others have in their cuppas and what they have been doing since last we met. A very cheerful group that are willing to show you their "Mug Shots" for the week.
Okay, so here is the second cup I bought a couple weeks ago, if you were here last T-Day I shared the green on that said "Keep Calm and Move ON", only I didn't have the spoon in the slots of the handle. I really am thinking about going back and getting a couple more of these red ones for Christmas gifts.
This morning I started a walking routine, that I HOPE I keep doing more than one day a week. LOL My poor dog, Dyna, is getting to look more like a red pig-dog, or as my cousin says a keg on legs. So, I figure she is going to be a good walking buddy!
I used to be an avid walker, about 10 years ago, making a 4 mile loop everyday in 60 minutes. Then I started having some problems with my right foot, and to make a long story short, I had surgery. They removed a joint in one toe and drove a
long pin through my toe and into the bone of my foot. Walking stopped, and now I buy shoes strictly for comfort! (But I really miss my pretty high heels LOL)
After my 25 minute, 3/4 mile walk (talk about slowing down!) I had some MOJO time with Betsy (ya know, my desk), making three large Christmas tags, due to be posted later. Then I went into the spare bedroom (more like the house hold dumping grounds) and did a thorough cleaning, even did the ironing that had piled up. Yep, there are still some shirts and thing I do like ironed. As I was cleaning and dusting I decided to share this box I have had for years. I had taken part in a domino swap, I think it was 4 for 4, and I did a large number of them. These are the ones that I received in return. They are glued to the top of a large cigar box that had been my FIL's. Now there are a few that I have dusted off the designs over the years, but in part most are still as pretty as the day I received them.
So, that's my mug shot and my share. What are you drinking today, and what have you been doing since last we met?

You put my cigar box to SHAME, dear. This is awesome. Really like the mosaic style you came up with from these swap doms.
Thanks for mugging me today! Love this red one, especially. It would indeed make a great gift and, as an added bonus, would make a good gift holder, too.
Ouch to the walk, but so glad you are starting again, just don't overdo it!

The mug would make a great gift whose contents could also be personalized.
What a fantastic way to display the dominos you received! Reminds me I have some boxes waiting to be altered.
I'm another walker with problems. Long story. I still get out and walk for an hour every morning. Not fast but at least I'm consistant. Too bad we can't walk together.

My walking routine has lessened and I need to start it back up and stick with it this time. Seems this last year I've gotten lazy. Wishing you luck on yours.
