As I promise in my previou content, I'm back here to show you the final result of the artwork I painted this morning. At first, this month is my eighth years with this fantastic community. I started to be here (at the start, like many of us, on steemit and, after, here on hive) in January 2017 and it was really an interesting, exciting "adventure"! Here I knew a lot of awesome people from different parts of the world, I read a lot of interesting contents, I watched a lot of beautiful pics and one of the first thing I use to do when I wake up in the morning is to open my laptop and to give an eye here. ❤️ I'm proud to be an hiver. ❤️

Hello hivers. an happy Thursday to you all! It's raining a little and the sky is full of white clouds, but the life in my backyard seems doesn't care about the weather and there are some birds flying and singing as usual. This morning I decided to try to take some pics of the robin who uses to eat the food of my cat in front of my window (some times he seems to watch me while I'm watching him and it's a very sweet thing) and I was able to take a couple of nice pics of that robin:

At first I want to wish an happy New Year to everyone! I hope you spent a nice end of the 2024 and an happy start of the 2025! Me and my hubby spent the last hours of the past year at home in a simple but cozy way: something good to eat, watching a movie on the tv, drinking a glass of spumante waiting the midnight and, after all the fireworks (I don't like them so close to me), finally the quiet came to us.Just to know, fortunately my furry friend Richy is a little deaf, but even if the municipality banned all the unauthorized fireworks because they are dangerous for animals and people, there were too much of them all around and, sure, stupid people who thought it could be great to play with gunpowder had to come to the hospital and there were also some little fires. People is stupid, really.

Hello hivers, an happy December 31th! Here in Italy we use to wish "buona fine e miglior principio" that means "a good end and a better start" and here we are, just few hours and the 2025 will start. Me and my hubby will wait the midnight at home (sure, with our furry friend Richy). A good dinner, something good to drink to celebrate the new year and some cakes sitting on the sofa in relax. Maybe we will watch a movie on the tv (I'd like to watch again "Going postal",a movie adaptation of the novel "Going Postal" by Terry Pratchett) or maybe we will enjoy to sing some songs while my hubby will play his guitar, I'm not sure about what will do, but I'm pretty sure it will be a nice end of the year together. 😁

Hello hivers, an happy Monday to you all! These days between the Christmas Day and the New Year are a little strange days. In my mind is like to be in a long long weekend with a sort of magical atmosphere full of lights and decorations all around, smell of good things to eat and drink, smiles and a lot of wishes from people to people.

Hello hivers, an happy Sunday to you all! I hope you arer spending a nice weekend! Today I'm here to show you how I used a small cardboard tray where there were some dried dates. Here in Italy is common to receive some dried dates during the Christmas time and I remember that my grand mother used to eat them with a few butter and a walnut inside of them (and the dates were really good!). This morning we finished to eat the dates on the cardboard tray and I thought to use that tray as a surface for one of my (fast) paintings. A nice way to give a new life to an old tray. ❤️
