Time to Kill

Here another one of those brain teasers. A new set of 6 puzzles. I didn't get #2, but have to admit, it is rather clever. So if you are stuck as well, don't give up as quickly as I did.

Solutions - as always - right at the end of this post in the smallest font size so you don't accidentally scroll all the way down and read the solutions without having had a proper go at quiz. 




Animal Happy Day

A long but very touching dog rescue story that happened in Spain. 

Imagine you are a homeless big dog with a huge lump on your foot and people are shooting at you and chasing you over gravel and earth piles because they think you are dangerous...evil even. You can hardly walk and you are in enormous pain because the lump on your foot is very heavy and infected and you always step on it. New faces show up and they, too, chase you and again you manage to get away...however, this time you have run out of luck. They don't give up and after many hours they catch you. 

This is ALMA's story...




On a more Private Note:

New Year Resolutions. I had a few for 2024. Finish the Stepouts of the Month from last year, which I have done and will be included in my next post. Partake in the Fragment of Your Imagination 2024 challenge, which I obviously did as well. I was also doing all my Daily Yoga Challenges, 4 in all, every single day! Yes, January's days were a bit stressful at times, but only until I rolled out my mat. Then the world was OK again.  

One of my Yoga challenge sessions ended with poem, which I would like to share with you here. I am not at all a poem person, but this one made me listen. It is by Erin Hanson and in case you are interested, it was at the end of Charlie Follows' practice day 20 called 45 Min Full Body Yoga Flow.

You are your Home

If there's one thing I may tell you
Let it be this : You Are Your Home
Your body is the only house
that you will ever truly own.

Maybe it's got some broken windows,
Maybe there are tear stains on the floors,
Maybe you lock the things you wish you weren't behind its many doors..
But there is wisdom on its bookshelves
And, a laugh to light the rooms.
There's a vase on the table, where the love you've grown all blooms.
Dreams sit on the mantelpiece, next to kindness and your trust,
Where you use them all so often, they have no time to collect dust.

Your body is your shelter, so you deserve to love it all
Don't let the world stand around outside, and tell you how to paint it's walls.

How lucky that you have somewhere to protect you from the night
And, if there's cracks left from the past? 
Well, then they just let in more light




Thank you very much for visiting!

Solutions:
1 – Forehead
2 – Good looking
3 – Waterfall
4 – Wake up
5 – Tuna fish
6 – Foreign language

Refreshers 248, 249, 250, 251, 252, 253, 254, 255; Step-Out of the Month June Huila; July Azura; Inspired by...; and a cardboard tile.


A Look Back


2023 was a bad year for my Zentangle 'artistic' endeavour early on. Just the thought of having to draw a certain tangle for a running project made me shudder. No kidding. After about 6 months I was sure I, drawing tangles, was beyond the point of no return. Then INKtober came along. I joined INKtober in 2018 and didn't miss a year. Would 2023 end up to be the one I had left out? It took 2 weeks into the project before I actually woke up from my sluggishness and longed - yes, longed! - to put pen to paper. I thoroughly enjoyed picking the tangles from the list, mixing them together and at times messing them up a bit. INKtober 2023 was my first post after the April tiles. . 

I have to say, now that I have overcome my lethargy I am a much happier person. I am somebody who needs her daily goals, hours filled with activity. I cannot couch-potato, or sit somewhere quiet and read a book. That affects me negatively. I need to be hands on onto something, to wake up to, and to fill my days. 

After INKtober 2023 I caught up with my steady going Refreshers* from Linda Farmer's website. Yes, all published 255 tiles are done. I am now waiting in my starting blocks for the publishing of January's. I am currently working on the missed 2023 Step-Out of the Month tangles. I plan to follow FYI, another challenge I participated in since it started, ...and then there are 3 more challenges waiting for me in January, but they are of a different kind: Yoga. So it will be a very busy January, maybe a bit stressful to get it all done, but I would not want it any other way!!!! 

* Anyone else doing those Refreshers on a regular basis?

Step-Out of the Month

♻️ Step-Out of the Month July - Azura, a beautiful botanical tangle by Theresa Fessler drawn on packaging paper. 
Hashtags: #azura #sootm #sootmjuly23 #stepoutofthemonth #conzentric on their FB page.

Tangle Pattern: Azura



♻️ The Azura tile below, drawn on absolutely beautiful packaging paper you usually throw away, was my initial idea, but while working on it I decided that the 'stretched' Azura is better drawn on a longish tile. However, I still wanted to finish the square one and went through 3 (THREE!!!) tries to make it look OK. I added a likely Blattwerk, Tipple and Fescu.

3rd and final Azura tile with the most recognisable Azura tangles. I packed one with Blattwerk and added Coffeebean Flower.

Inspired by Zentangle Artists' Video Tutorials

♻️ This tile has been lying in my 'TODO' folder for ages. So end of year means cleanup time and that is what I did and added a reverse design - Rayz outside-in - for good measure. This is a Video Tutorial by AKASKY using the tangle Rayz. Paper used: Packaging paper from the flower market.

Tangle Pattern: Rayz



♻️ The reversed version as above and injecting some of the Rayz tangles with a bit of Toodles. Paper used: Packaging paper from the flower market. I was really surprised about the 3D effect this tile created. To think that I almost threw the paper out! Unfortunately, there are not too many yellow leaves left (only dull red and dark) and I can't remember which shop used it, else I would hurry to get another plant just to get the paper.

Same as above but with reversed design with Rayz and Toodles adaptations
Tangle Patterns: Rayz, Toodles adaptations



Cardboard Tile Drawing

♻️ My first attempt to draw on cardboard and then pull the paper off to reveal the wavy part. It was a lot of fun, I have to admit, and not difficult to draw on at all. Tangles used Bireel Flipped, Taiga, Printemps and the video tut was by Emiko.

A new set of 6 puzzles. #4 is enlarged...just in case you can't read it. Solutions - as always - right at the end of this post in the smallest font size so you don't accidentally scroll all the way down and read the solutions without having had a proper go at them. (I drew a blank on #3 and I had a different, but - I insist - more accurate result on #5. I add my result to the bottom answers in ()) 





Animal Happy Day

How do you get 3 big cached dogs down a step hill without freaking them out? On one wheel...once you got the team together to trap them that is.



I wish to all my visitors a great

2024 

with much health, wealth, and happiness
for themselves, their families and their friends..



Sleeping innocent Coal
Coal keeping watch over me when I am in the shower.
Well done, sweety, but you'd better keep an eye
out for those snakes I have in my garden. 
Oh well!


Solution to puzzle above
1 – Many thanks or thanks a lot
2 – Download
3 – No idea
4 – Comfortable
5 – Forty years (42 years - reasoning: each YEARS, YEARS is already in plural. Should have been only one YEARS or YEAR, YEAR)
6 – Excuse me

Animal Happy Day...

...and how TikTok is fake? 

I first came across a TikTok video in Facebook where a mother Deer blocs a car and leads him to her bambi entangled in a soccer net. At the end a really fantastic scene happens and I decided that I check whether youTube has the same video so I can place the video here. 

Yeap! Found it. Or better said I found the exact same footage which is shown at the end of FB video, but it was a different video. One is fake.

Here the link to the FB TikTok video...

Snakey, Snakey

Winter is acoming. Well, not exactly here in Thailand, but we do have a cold season. And in cold season our snakes are looking for warmth. A few days ago I found this beauty in my garden. I never kill snakes or rodents or whatever. They all have a purpose in life and on this earth, so I quickly fetched my too snake catching tools (fishing nets) and captured the intruder. While I carried it out towards an open field I noticed how docile it was. So before the final release I hurried back to get my mobile to shot some images. I believe it to be a baby Boa, but what do I know about snakes.

Snake still resting in my snake catcher fishing net
Still caught in my fishing net, but...

Back in the wild again
...released and happily back in the wild again.



Finally the over-and-out and a thank you for visiting my post. However, not before showing Coal in his latest exercise routine. Caught him just before doing the corpse pose Shavasana. 

Coal following my Yoga lead
...twist your knees to your right, arms to your left and
get comfy....



Solution to above puzzle:
1 – Trip around the world or around the world trip
2 – Lemonade
3 – Long legs
4 – advice
5 – Spaceman
6 – Big bad wolf
