I usually ask how your summer is going, but I guess I need to ask how your fall is going. How is your spring going if you’re in the Southern Hemisphere? I hope, if you’re anywhere in the path of Hurricane Helene, you are safe and have power. We have had quite a bit of …
Holy heatwave, Batman! It is just plain miserable here in Central Indiana. Most of you can probably tell I’m a night owl. The temperatures have been in the 80s at 11:00pm! That’s approximately 29C! Thank goodness we have central air. The heat also makes my hair go flat right away which makes me feel even …
When I look back at this month, I don’t feel like I accomplished much of anything. But, I did get almost all of my plants planted. Do you ever buy flowers and plant most of them right away, then run out of steam? That’s me. I have a few left to plant, and there’s even …
What a month this has been! I’m sure you’re tired of hearing about the eclipse, but I was just bowled over by it. I doubt I’ll see another, but here’s to hoping I do! The weather is sunny, and I’m ready to get some ferns for the back porch. I still haven’t decided what to …
Spring has arrived in the Northern Hemisphere! But, I don’t think Mother Nature got the memo! The days are sunny but cool. I’ll take it as I am completely over the cold weather! Anyway, welcome to the last Monday in March and another edition of Songful Style! Suzy and Shelbee decided to riff (see what …
I have been taking naps! We got a new TV for the third bedroom. I turn on the electric blanket, crawl inside the cozy bed, turn the TV onto a baking show, and sleep! I guess I’ve only done it two days, but it’s a little out of the ordinary for me. I need to …
As I write this, would you believe it is about 60 degrees (15.6C) warmer than it was last week? We had an Arctic freeze, polar vortex, whatever you want to call it, it was frigid!! And, today, we had a high of 53 (11.7C)! The night before, we had such dense fog, it was a …
The weather has changed quite a bit since last month! We’ve had several heavy frosts and even a few snowflakes. The leaves are all gone from the trees in our yard and from most of the trees around us. It’s hard to believe Thanksgiving has come and gone here in the States. I did quite …
“Meet Virginia” Last month, I said I thought fall was definitely on its way. We had fall, and then summer came back for quite a few days. The last couple of days, it’s been a bit chilly and drizzly. Our temps are supposed to drop drastically in the next day or two. Anyway, welcome to …
“A Thousand Years” I think fall weather is on the way. Mother Nature uses a calendar about as much as I do! That calendar may say one thing, but Mother Natures does her own thing! We have warm days and blessedly cool nights. Nigel and I washed windows and took out the screens. That lets …
