Autumn will be mine… (woyww #487)

October 3, 2018 By Marit 20 Comments

Hi there sweeties… here I am to show my desk and a few other things but I keep this post short (Julia, our woyww-hostess, will be pleased) because yesterday was my birthday (…thanks ๐Ÿ˜‰ ) and my friend Lena will visit me this morning. In the afternoon, she and I will drive to a nearby town to visit an old teacher… we were both in his class and haven’t seen him in 35 years! We ‘met’ with this teacher again on Facebook (Facebook CAN BE nice like that) and I am looking forward to meet him again because he was one of my favorite teachers.

So here is my desk today

WOYWW #487

Another EDM drawing – a bit better than the former one…

And an art journal page I created last Monday

Summer is yours but Autumn will be mine

Have a beautiful Autumn day! Enjoy the coloring of the trees. Enjoy wind and rain. Go do something that makes you happy. Drink tea with a friend.

    Morning Marit. I commented and it disappeared telling me it was a duplicate – so if this becomes number three – simply delete! Trust you had a great birthday yesterday – belated happy birthday wishes! have a lovely time today with your friend, visiting your old teacher. The drawing of the specs is really good – well done.
    Take care. God bless.

    Loving that sketch and that journal page is awesome – very striking visually and I’m sure very meaningful as well if I could read it. It seems to be birthday season – we’ve had three in our family within the last two weeks alone! Happy belated and have fun meeting your old teacher! I know FB has a good side too – you just have to know how to use it to your advantage! Happy #487 zsuzsa #19

    I am drinking tea with the builders who are replacing the roof tiles. Does it ever end? Next job is the hole in the ceiling caused by a leaking pipe then maybe the new bedroom will get done before Christmas.
    Love your journal page – what a lovely sentiment that is about summer and autumn and your drawing is super.
    How exciting to be visiting a teacher after so long. As an ex teacher I am so chuffed that one of my pupils who is 53 in December has sent me a card every single year since leaving school at 16. We went to her wedding also. It really warms your heart so I am sure your teacher will be thrilled to bits.
    Hugs, Neet xx 7

    Hi Marit, Belated birthday wishes. I enjoyed my tour round your desk again this week – the labels are so helpful. How lucky for you that you have contacted your former teacher. At my age, I doubt whether any of mine would still be around, let alone on social media. Your art journal page is fabulous. Have a wonderful week. Elizabeth x #17
