A few pics from yesterday and this morning? Are you thoroughly sick of flower pics yet? I promise the daylilies will be done blooming soon. Also included an oriental lily and some misc. pics. Have a good Sunday Civatar!

Couple of pics taken this morning… Both of something white!

Morning Civatar! It’s another start to a new week which means Music Monday has rolled around. I chose this classic Phil Collins song, hard to believe it was released over 40 years ago, (doesn’t that make me feel old!). This is a live version, that has a rather long introduction, you can skip ahead about 2 and half minutes or so to get to where he starts singing. Just an amazing performance where he doesn’t miss a beat with that iconic drum performance.

Have a favorite tune? Feel free to post it for today’s Music Monday!

Been out wandering a bit on this soggy day. Much too wet to weed, hoe, or do much of anything, but I snapped a few pics of a few blooms.

And heck, one more bonus pic for 8!

For today’s Music Monday, I chose another Teddy Swims song. I know I posted one of his big hits several weeks ago, but I just love his voice. He and Chris Stapleton have such wonderful, raspy, soulful voices. Feel free to join in and post your own favorite tune for Music Monday. Music is always a good way to start the day or week off with and life one’s spirits a bit.

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, no it’s a hummingbird moth… Sorry these pics aren’t the best, I was getting ready to head out the door and I spied the moth out the window, so the pics were taken thru the window so I wouldn’t scare it off opening the door.

Also included, a couple of more bloom pics…

Despite the heat yesterday, I spied these two guys when I stepped out the door. Today promises to be just as hot. At the moment not much is moving outside, but I hope to grab some more pics today. I took a few flower pics yesterday. If I get around to it, I will post them later.

Stay safe in this heat!

Morning Bloggers, it promises to be a hot one today with triple digits and I have already been out and tried to get everything watered before it gets much worse out there. Please remember to put out water for your pets, birds, and the critters and have a shady cool spot available for them in this heat.

I chose this song for today’s Music Monday since it is officially summer. Stay cool everyone and feel free to post a song for today’s Music Monday!

There evidently needs to be a follow up to the last blog I wrote about “brokenness”. That blog was written in response to a petty and spiteful “update” that was posted on the activity page. It was the first posting of the day by an individual to needle and goad another member here. That member hadn’t posted anything to merit that particular “update” and it was seen for what it was.

I’m sorry if that poster of that update is unable to see clearly, or doesn’t like seeing their reflection. No amount of excuses, deflection, or feigned innocence is going to cover up that fact. If you post such remarks, you can expect to be called out for the rudeness and cattiness you displayed.

Here is an idea, how about not posting such negativity and vitriol in the first place? How about not criticizing what others post and spend the time productively writing a more “personal and heartfelt” blog yourself instead of spamming the activity page with nonsense and repeated postings of the same thing every day? How about taking your own advice and ignore what others post and just set your preferences to “friends”? I don’t think any of those suggestions are too difficult.

Easy-peasy problem solved.

Some quick pics taken on my walk to the mailbox. It’s another hot and windy day here so the blooms will be fading fast.

The reds seem to be in abundance today. I tried to post different daylilies than the ones posted yesterday. It’s always a toss up to see which ones will be blooming early, and which ones are wanting to take their sweet time. There is still more to come, so I guess that is a warning to be prepared to be bored with more pics later on this month.

A bonus pic…another red/pink variety blooming today again.
