Morning Bloggers! It is a grey and foggy morning here. I’ve been out to feed the cat(s) and take out the trash for trash day and now I’m just waiting for the sun to peek out and I will try and weed for an hour or so if it’s dry enough. Temps are heading back up and it’s been nice to have the cooler weather and have the windows open. Tomorrow its…Read more

Morning Civatar, rain moved in yesterday afternoon and it’s just been a spotty shower here and there. Today is supposed to be a bit of the same with most of the rain forecasted for this morning. So far, just overcast but that can change. It’s looking like it’s going to be a lazy indoor day, and I am thinking I should make a casserole, what kind is…Read more

:wpds_lol: Totally understand. It’s a bit more techno and I usually can’t stand that stuff, but this song kind of reminded me of a Bollywood sort of musical number. It’s good to see you on here, you have been missed!

Morning Civatar! At the moment the weather can’t quite decide what to do, looks like rain, bit of thunder, but the sun is peeking out here and there. It’s cooler so perfect weather for getting something done, as long as it doesn’t start raining. So, I am waiting for a short bit before deciding what today will bring. Yesterday was rather warm so I…Read more

Morning Civatar, a quiet day today after a very busy one yesterday. Waiting on an order, doing some laundry and then who knows? I’m thinking cupcakes sound like a plan. They are so much handier than a whole cake. I usually freeze them and just take out a couple when I want one so everything doesn’t go stale or dry as with a whole cake. What are…Read more

Morning Civatar, finally some wonderfully cooler weather! I’ll be heading out after bit to putter a bit outside. Not sure how muddy it will be for weeding. But hopefully I get something accomplished.

Morning Civatar, on this very last day of July. It won’t be long and the kids will be going back to school, leaves will be falling, and things will be cooling off. But then again, we could have some miserable dog days of summer ahead, who knows. Rain overnight has made things a bit soggy so it’s indoors for at least this morning. I’m thinking…Read more

Morning Civatar, been outside for a bit, but quickly got chased back in by a rain shower that popped up. There is a chance of rain off and on all day today, so I may not make it back out there. The weeds will just have to wait a little longer. I should have known it would rain, I watered late last night.
