It's Not Snowing Here...

I was right!!! First of all, Tessie pulled the usual "Show me how to do that" thing... I knew that she would and I went along with it. I got it done in a lot shorter time than it would have taken her to do..

I did all of the sculpting of the rocks.

She started in with the old buttering up routine.  "Show me how to get the rocks just right. You do it so much better than I do." I played along and she followed me throughout the sculpting of the rocks.   I did some with her watching closely... But when I asked if she wanted to try it, she simply said, "Show me more!".  This is what it looked like when I started. 

 I did "More" until she told me to stop... That wasn't here.  It was after I had done the last edge of the last rock.  Then she said... "I think that I know what to do now... Then she proceeded to ask help with the painting... Again she told me how much better I am at painting than she is...

No.  I wasn't snowed.  I just wanted to get the whole thing done.  Then she wanted help with finding bushes for the front yard.  Well. That's what she calls it. 

Not much of a front yard. She then volunteered to show me how it works.  She went in the door and closed it... Yup. I could hear her on the other side... I didn't ask questions... I just waited.

Then I heard a call for help from the bathroom on the other side of the wall that she had the door sitting in front of. 

Yup.  She was in the other room.  About two feet higher than the door in question...

When I asked her what happened, she said, "I forgot that the door was facing a blank wall and I had to zap myself up to the towel bar to save myself!"

Sure she did.  It was either that or falling on her face... However, I do believe that I heard a Zap from behind the door.  She always makes a swishing sound when she zaps from one place to the next... I am not falling for the magic door routine. 

Please don't tell her that.  She is very proud of her magic door...

Back to the magic!  See you tomorrow.

It Works!!!

Sure it does, Tessie.

This morning I found Tessie adding more stone to the top of her "Magic Door".

That's what she is calling it now...

She still has to do the foundation. It still looks like ceiling tile.

 She volunteered to show me how it works...

She got as far as trying to open the door.  Then she claimed that it didn't work properly because it was not finished yet.

She kept mumbling to herself. "It will work when I finish everything. It will!"

I used the usual magic words... "Don't hold your breath, Tessie!"

I have a feeling that the space behind the door is what is going to make it work.  She is going to let herself in and then Zap the rest of the way into the room that she wants to go to...

It will be a good trick... If it works... She is going to have to make it so that the door really opens though. Right now, it is just a pasted on door.

She zapped herself and her magic door in here to watch me write this.  She refused to read what I was writing.  She says that if I don't believe in her door, she doesn't believe in my blog...

Oh dear! What shall I do? I guess I will have to pretend to believe in her magic door... And she can pretend to believe that I write about her all of the time in the blog...

Maybe if I leave her out for a couple of days, she will start behaving like a normal person... Nah.  That never works.  Tessie is Tessie and I just have to live with it.

Yes Tessie, I believe in your magic door... Now do you believe in my blog???

See you tomorrow.

It's Tessie's Turn...

Tessie is playing with leftovers again...

I took the end off of the conservatory in one piece... Kind of... There were a couple of bricks missing, but it was mostly there.

She had me cut a base for the wall and then she started making plans for it.

I over heard her and Daisy talking.  Tessie told her that it wasn't quite as good as a time machine, but it could work for getting into all kinds of places that the big people don't want us to get into...

For example, the workroom, where all the good stuff is stored.

Her theory is, you put her wall next to the room that she wants to enter and just like that!  Open the door and go inside...

I am not going to break her bubble, but I am wondering how she is going to get the wall that her wall is fastened to out of the way?

 She heard me question that and she simply grinned and said one word... "Magic!"

I am not holding my breath until I see if this works.  I have my doubts.

Daisy seems to believe every word that Tessie is spouting.

I didn't realize how slanted the sides of the conservatory were until I saw these photos.  Oh well... Maybe that's part of the magic???

Anyway, stay tuned to see how she does this... I know I am going to  be listening to see if I can pick up any tips on how to make something like this work...

We shall see how she does it.

And I will see you tomorrow.
