August Tag Take 2...

Hi folks...it's Friday and after 3 glorious days of doing nothing but sit in the sun and soak up some much needed Vitamin D...it was back to the same old yesterday and the cloudy and drizzly weather is said to continue into next week. So there was nothing else for it but to drag ourselves back to the cubbyhole for a "needs must/back to the hamster wheel" day.
And top of the list was another go at this month's tag for 
I wasn't too happy with Numero Uno and I don't know about you but when something bugs me...I've just got to fix it...so here we go with August Tag Take 2...


I'm taking some "get away from it all" time off in September and with no Friday Girls adventure today...I'm planning on getting  my head down and nailing a month's worth of DT projects and scheduled posts but can I resist the temptation of playing with all these delicious left-overs...
before I move on to yesterday's Happy Mail DT parcel from Simon Says...
a perfectly timed delivery means I'm all set to make a start on Project No 1...
but before I go...time to let you all know that my Furry Companion is back to firing on all cylinders...the stitches are out...the cone of shame is back in the cupboard and apart from a shaved left hip...you'd never know he'd had surgery unlike hubby who had a tooth extraction which required stitching a few days ago. Blimey it's obvious that the human male is not as resilient as the doggy variety...in a nutshell...he's driving me up the wall...according to him...it was touch and go whether he would survive the night...needless to say he's still with us and moaning at every opportunity in that familiar male "feel sorry for myself " voice...his tea is too hot...can I just have thin soup for supper. Seriously...another few days of this and my "get away from it all" holibobs may be happening sooner rather than later.
In the meantime...enjoy your weekend whatever you have planned and I'll see you all on Monday over at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge.

  3. Now you're just showing off! some of us haven't even started on tag number one, and here you are with number two. And a stunning one it is too!
    Glad to hear Buddy is bouncing back, and I'm not at all surprised to hear he's doing so quicker than the human male in the house. Men are actually wimps... could you imagine them going through childbirth!? hehe... Have a lovely day Kath. x

  13. Beautiful tag Kath, I love the wildflowers and the gorgeous colours you've used. I'm just catching up on visiting my favourite blogs. Sorry I've not been around as often. I was sorry to read Buddy has been through such a worrying time, but I'm glad he's recovering well. I've been so busy with loads of home life stuff, keeping an eye on our mischievous young puppy, work and running back and forth to visit my old dad in hospital for a few weeks now. I need more hours in the day. Trying to fit in a bit of creativity is difficult and to have a bit of me time, so when I can visiting you here with a mug of tea in my hand is good therapy. Give Buddy a hug for me, I hope he's feeling much better now and is able to enjoy his lovely walks again. Alexandra xx
