We don't have the best of weather today, but I decided I'd go for a walk anyway, only really half an hour stroll, but I managed to not get rained on. Alistair was hoping to go for a cycle later, but I've washed his cycling gear, you know the kind of thing...pants with a padded bum, so he says he can't go. What did he do before he he had these pants??? Anyway, he's been for his walk, and it bucketed rain, aww!
I hope you are all keeping yourselves occupied and importantly, laughing. Having a good laugh, you know the kind of belly laugh that brings on tears, well it raises the endorphins and give that good feeling. I do hope that you can find something in the day that makes you laugh,cos this enforced isolation will play havoc with mental health well being too.
When I was still working I used to run laughing classed, I worked with people who experienced mental health issues, and the feed back from staff and client alike was that they always felt better. Have to say sometimes you felt daft starting to laugh from nothing but by the end of it tears were running down the face and we all felt lifted. Sometimes it was telling funny stories or jokes, whatever it took. I know times are scary for so many folks, but it's important to stay as positive as you can.
Anyway, I've got a card that I saw on Faye Wynn-Jones blog, and I just had to have the fun image, it's a free digi from Whimsy stamps and you can find Faye's blog here
So, that's me for now, keep yourselves well and safe, and Big Virtual Hugs to those who need them,

Hi Kate,

He sure is a cutie and you have coloured him wonderfully too.
Great backing card stock as well.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

I think your coloring is great, Kate! And I love the crackle background! No one can figure out the TP situation. I mean, yes, there was a run to get it, but that was two weeks ago. Why haven't the stores gotten more in by now, which they should then limit one per? Did all the companies stop making it? It's confounding. I wholeheartedly endorse your philosophy that laughter is the best thing to get us through this. Even if you end up dead, might as well go out laughing!! You and Alistair take care and be safe!! You're a good wife to wash his padded bum for him!! Hugs, Darnell
What a fun image, just make me smile.
Hugs Diane
It is such a fun image and yes laughing is good for you
As soon as I saw Dudley he made me smile, It is starting to get to me now, I will just have to grin and bear it. I was speaking to my friend on zoom this morning, felt better after that, she has mental problems, it seemed to cheer her up. Keep well and safe. Marlene
Seeing your fun image and beautiful card made me smile,also a chuckle about the padded bum

very sweet card and yes I cope with the virus. not sick iam happy Our weather has turned from sun to grey.
You did a great job coloring up this fun image. You have to laugh at the people who are hoarding toilet paper, insane. They restock our big gox and grocery stores every night and by 8 am it is gone from the shelves. Paper towel and napkins and tissues too. People are nuts........ We are staying in and just going for a walk with the dog once a day. Stay safe...
Hugs
