FRIDAY's FAVE 5
more participants at Susanne at Living to tell the Story.
1. Since autumn has begun officially, we have warm sunny weather with 24° (75 F). Global warming came back. Nevertheless I checked all windows if they were properly isolated for the winter.
2. Two girlfriends came over for a cup of tea and cake of course and we could sit outside in the warm sun and discuss how we could change the world, but after a while we gave up and chatted over people. Mr. G hid in his office.
3.
Probably for the last time this year I could take a sun bath and read a book, with cat Arthur under and Rosie besides my deckchair not behind grids in a jail but behind the laundry drier.
4. After they had announced rain I quickly put salt and chlorid dissolved in water on the gravel in front of our house, because it's a cheap remedy against weeds and is also not dangerous for animals.
For the moment it doesn't look very nice
5.
And the rain arrived the day I had my painting class and I finally finished the painting I had started before the summer holidays.
It hasn't been a very exciting week !

You're killing me here with global warming and cats in jail. ROFLMAO that is a beautiful painting. You did a great job. Arthur is a star now. And fit some reason Madame Chat
ReplyDeleteI doubt you have slow days and weeks ever. LOL
Glad you had a sunny day and visit from your friends. I loved Rosie "behind bars".I was just wondering where Arthur is when I saw him on your BEAUTIFUL painting. Well done! I've never seen a cat licking itself in a painting and you depicted his action/s perfectly. Have a good day. Button up those woollies and enjoy yourself! (((Hugs))) Jo
ReplyDeleteI,m glad you are still getting a warm day now and then. Chatting with friends is a great way to spend time.
ReplyDeleteWe will have a warm day here too. I like Autumn and the cool crisp air. I also love sweaters and turtlenecks!
ReplyDeleteLove your painting on Arthur!
ReplyDeleteLOL! You turn even the mundane into a FUN and lively post, my friend! I never thought of salt and chloride... GREAT idea! I like your new painting!
ReplyDeleteLove your painting. That is sweet!
ReplyDelete"Mr. G. hid in his office". Cracked me right up! Too funny.
Nice painting Gattina!!! Arthur is a such cute égérie!!!
ReplyDeleteWe had a little rain today too but very little. It's a such good thing to have the possibility to sit in the garden under the sun! I set in the yard of the school in the middle of about 9O pupils!!!
I'm used now but a little tired after school!!!
Ha. I love your # 2, chatting about changing the world, but finally giving up. Hey, at least you tried! It’s a big job.
ReplyDeleteSometimes those “non-exciting” weeks are the best kind. Hope you have a nice weekend.
Your painting reminds me of my white cat Speed!! Great job!!
ReplyDeleteNever tryed salt on weeds in the cement before, so I am going to give it a try. Thanks for the gardening tip! On the next sunny day - really!!
I like all your cat paintings Gattina. They're lovely. It must take special patience to paint cats I think.
