WOYWW #611

Welcome, it's another Wednesday, a day we share our desks.  Ms Julia hosts our fun HERE and you can play along or visit anyone who's name shows up on Mr. Linky.  

My desk: We had electricity turned off this morning, with the bitter temps of -17 so the mother board could have a break.  And only off for less than an hour. But I have a bright sunny window to work with so thought I'd make some  "Lacey" paper clips clusters for later use.  Was fun and I used up "scraps".







Here is a Valentine my Hubby made for me !  

You should be able to clip the photos to enlarge.  We also went to our favorite restaurant on Tuesday to avoid the crowds and had our favorite LARGE Shrimp

In a post following this I will have  a Valentine Garland, and his hanging Valentine. 
I've also posted a few In previous posts as I shared on a few group posts. 

I was saddened to hear of our friend Shaz. She will be missed, I loved her style and always could present a question and she'd get me through. Thanks Julia for the wonderful post.  It is a treasure.  May you all enjoy good health and Happy Times. 
Thanks for your visit

It’s been lovely reading the tributes to Shaz today, she meant such a lot to everyone. Blimey you’ve had a lot of snow, your hubby’s valentine was inspired and made me smile! Keep safe and warm,

It's always good to see your smiling face my friend! Are you guys staying safe and warm? These winter storms have been a terrible thing. He it is very cold for this time of year but hopefully if we can get through this week it will all be good. I am so sorry to hear about Shaz! She was always so very kind to me when I was able to be a part of this group. I lost touch with so many when I had to stop being with you guys each week.

I've heard about the winter storms over there and it's quite incredible that even Texas is struggling. Your clippy clusters are fabulous - what a perfect adornment to so many things. Much love on this difficult day, Lisa-Jane #7

Great valentine from your hubby! what fun. though I'd not like so much snow! Being without power in such cold temps is no fun, so glad it wasn't for too long. Helen #2

I started off okay today with the visits, walked dogs and went into the cabin and now I don't know where the time went to! Looks like you had a lovely Valentine surprise there. Shaz will never have really left us because her blog will keep her alive for us and I can tell you it wont be the last time I pop over there for some ideas when I get stuck, God Bless her. Have a lovely creative woyww, Angela,x18x

I love the Garland, what a lovely idea, and I particularly like the weights you used waiting for the glue to dry, just as well you bought those punches, huh! His Valentine for you is just the sweetest thing, I confess that we did nothing, in fact, woke up on Sunday without even realising, wasn’t till our gal messaged us with valentines greetings that we realised! Awe have a really close friend who has a birthday on the 13th and even in lockdown, what we do for that seems to wipe the next day clean out of my mind! Love the Lacy clips, and the way you casually just made them, it would take me an age to come up with those. And crikey, your weather. Bonkers. Stay warm and safe.

Well, Sylvia, when I was in hospital over Valentine's once, I thought the card my hubby brought me had to be the biggest and most over the top one I'd ever seen (all the hospital staff had to come and look at it and they loved it!) but now I realise that it was rather small compared with yours!! It's absolutely brilliant. Well done that hubby!

Such a sad week, missing Shaz and grieving for her and my heart going out to Doug... Your post at least put a smile on my face and I thank you for that.

Have a good week.

Thank you for your return visit, Sylvia - I thought our kitties were heavy at just over 7 lb each, but 20 lb?? That's a BIG kitty! I know boys are usually bigger than girls, but even so... Hope you didn't get too much more snow, and I hope you will soon be able to get together with your lovely family again.
