Finally.....summer!!

Hi everyone. It's finally summer here with temps in the high 80's and even 90's in some places. We went from winter to summer over night. Unfortunately I've had to work all week so haven't been able to enjoy it as much as I'd like.

There's not been much going on here lately. I see from reading the posts that Bea has some photos. I'll take a look shortly. Kaci, I'm sorry to hear about your dad, but am sure he's in a happier place now. Rosemary, welcome back to the US. When do you go back to England to help with the new baby? I believe I see a new name since the last time I checked in. Welcome Joan. I'm Diana from Maine, only an occasional poster these days.

It's getting late and I need to iron a blouse for work tomorrow and then head for bed. Am I the only one who still irons? My ds helped me set up a small water fountain in an old galvanized tin washtub in one of my perennial gardens recently. It's right under my bedroom window and I've been sleeping to the sound of gently flowing water. So nice.

Keep well everyone, and I'll still be checking in from time to time. diana

Hi Diana,

Good to see you. Glad you all have finally gotten into summer up there. If you are anything like me, I complain when it is too cool and then before I know it the weather is ghastly in SC and now I am complaining about that.

Hey, what is an iron? LOL.. Nope I rarely iron.

I always wanted one of those fountains. I should break down and have one put in. I have the perfect spot for one.

Have a good rest and a nice tomorrow.

Becky

So nice to "see" you again - you must be keeping busy. I'm very glad to be back - but will be going back for baby duty in 5 weeks. And yes, I iron - a lot! Have a pile waiting for me now, but it's too hot. It can wait for cooler weather! Don't work too hard - we miss you on here. Rosemary

Diana, so nice to hear from you. Yes, isn't it wonderful to listen to the sound of water as your falling asleep. We listen to the small lap of the gentle waves here at the lake because we leave the windows open most nights unless temps go down to freezing, and let's hope we are not going into that again. We sure welcome the summer weather but it took a long time in getting here. Yesterday was downright miserable because it was too humid and I was in the lake more than out. I'm a'gonna turn into a fish! Keep in touch, it's great to know that things are going well for you. Hugs. Bea

Good to see you Diana! You're working mighty hard in your "retirement"! LOL!

How's the garden coming this year?

Hugs, Darby

Mindy, I thought for sure I'd be getting up every half hour to head for the bathroom but so far so good. However, the dog and cat are waking me up instead all night long to let them out!! diana
