| Sun's Warming Rays Through Fog on Patio |
Welcome September – really? already? / today is a holiday Monday – Labour Day / why
do I remember that today would have been Queen Elizabeth I’s birthday, ah school / in the ongoing exercise of increasing
spontaneity in my life, I said yes to a last minute invite to join a friend at
her home for new deck viewing & a dip in the pool / spent lots of time in
the pool – I forgot how much I like being in water / introduction to Smirnoff’s
Ice (alcohol cooler) / anxious to start the garden clean up / everything in the
pots & ground looking thirsty & tired / working hard to stave off that
end of summer blue feeling / shopping & then returns, wrong plug for iphone
/ a little time for scrapping / walking in the mall where it’s cooler – oh the
humidity has been wicked this past week / heat records for September 2nd & 6th
/ creative menu planning that did not require any heat source for a couple of
days / Formula One watching - oh Nico so sorry for your engine failure / fur girls transitioning between
kittens & cats (adults) so there is a last hurrah of naughtiness (well
that’s my story) / searching for a series on DVD that I can use for treadmill
walking / from garden lots of tomatoes ripening; yummy / still waiting for library to call with
Rising Strong book / mailing birthday
cards / not sleeping well at all !!!!!!! / patience finally rewarded with capture for Pairs – I have been stalking all summer for this photo op
(not turtles) / finishing up SPSH, awaiting permission from people in a
particular photo to share on line / gathered up my entire blank ready to use
journals – oh my, I need to just stop buying & start using ! / wow, found a bunch of
diet journals / colouring / had my first Gelato – thanks Chapman for Tiramisu
gelato / enjoying tea/coffee on the patio in the cool of the morning - everything so foggy.
Well Monday - bring it on and I hope that includes some much needed rain and a reduction in the humidity!
Lovely patio picture. I like the idea of time in a pool. I could do with that now!
ReplyDeleteSpending time in my friend's pool really makes me want my own pool. Mr Man says he'll buy me one of the blow up kiddie pools :(
DeleteWow: heat records! we've had the coldest summer for 20 years. I hope you get some nice autumnal weather soon. And enjoy your holiday day!
ReplyDeleteEnvironment Canada issued Extreme Heat Alerts today - I would gladly trade today for some better sleeping weather, but the official government folks tell us no problem with climate change ... I'll say no more for now.
DeleteCould you send us a little of that sun and heat - summer seems to have passed us by here :)
ReplyDeleteLovely photos, what a beautiful view x
Oh Louise H I would gladly share some of this heat. Maybe your Autumn will be lovely and warm :)
DeleteHot and humid here as well, but the forecast is for thunderstorms for most of the next 10 days! I'll stick with sunshine, thanks! Love your photos!
ReplyDeleteIt seems that all the thunderstorms are moving south of us but they do predict cooler temperatures by Wednesday. We really need a Woman's Rain (gentle) all night to help the trees.
Deletewhat summer..we haven't had one. I can only dream of spending time in the pool. Sounds like you're enjoying the warmth x
ReplyDeleteI am counting the days until we get air conditioning - this humidity makes sleeping really difficult. I will send warm thoughts your way.
DeleteI'm like you on the stationery front... SOOO much writing paper and I rarely write a handwritten letter any more. And still the purchases continue...!
ReplyDeleteHave a good week!
I keep hoping I will have profound and lovely words to record in these journals. As for the diet journals, this last 6 weeks have been filled with dietary naughty pleasures of which I am to embarrassed to record!
DeleteThe sunlight in your photo is just beautiful, and I so envy what seems to me like your gloriously warm weather :). We've already got the fire on here!
ReplyDeleteThanks. Oh Alexa that thought of a fire gave me a hot flash :) This morning we are experiencing some light rain which is driving the humidity up again.
DeleteI'm with you. How on earth can it be September already? It's a shame we can't meet in the middle on the temperature front and then we'd all be happy!
ReplyDeleteWe have had a return to more livable temperatures but still need rain, the sprinkles we received yesterday are just not enough. While I enjoy Autumn I am not prepared to relinquish summer yet.
