I am going to be that person and say, “I can’t believe it’s the 10th of August already!” The last couple of weeks have been sooooo slow and yet have gone quite quickly…if that can even happen. Well, it can’t really happen unless quantum something or other is involved, right? Anyhoo, Nigel got a really …
I’m not sure about where you live, but here in Central Indiana, many of the schools are already back in session. Gosh, I remember not starting school until the Friday before Labor Day. We only went for half a day, and then school began in earnest on the Tuesday after Labor Day. These days, it …
July seems to be going just as fast as the other months this year! Two of my grands will be heading back to school before the month is over, I think. Isn’t that sad? I started school the Friday before Labor Day (only a half day to get forms and such) and started for real …
And, we’re off! Summer is here (in the Northern Hemisphere)! It’s sweltering where I live, and the neighbors are shooting off fireworks. There was a time when I enjoyed fireworks, but now I’ve got a dog who is absolutely terrified of them. I have to admit it’s much quieter in our new neighborhood even though …
10 on the 10th… May was one of those months that flew pretty quickly. Nigel had a couple of tests, and we’re now waiting for his appointment with the surgeon. He has been using a walker everywhere and is supposed to stay off of his feet as much as possible. That’s almost impossible with him. …
June is off to a beautiful start. We have had the most gorgeous weather though storms are forecast for the next day or so. I also love thunderstorms so all is well. My plants are doing well, though one of my salvias has mites. It’s funny because last year, I had the same problem with …
10 on the 10th… Wowza!! April just flew by, didn’t it? I really don’t like to hear that let alone say it, but the month just zoomed past me. May is quite the month in our family. Both my youngest granddaughter and my bonus son have birthdays as do my niece and my great-nephews. I’ve …
Those April showers definitely led to May flowers. My rose bushes are filled with little buds, and some have already begun to open. Unfortunately, the leaves on the bushes appear to be quite delicious to something because, in the course of one day, entire groups of leaves were lace! I hate using insecticides, but I …
As I write this month’s answers, I’m still celebrating the eclipse. You guys! It was one of the most incredible sights ever! I’ll admit the half hour or so leading up to totality was kinda boring and anticlimactic. I really thought it would be a lot darker as the moon moved between us and the …
Last month, I predicted we would have some more snow before the end of the month. And, I think we did, but if we did, it was just flurries. On Tuesday, April 2nd, we had snow flurries again! Mother Nature is not reading her calendar! As far as March coming in like a lion or …
