Old man winter just doesn’t want to leave the South. This is the longest
time we have had snow for so long. Just got another 5-6 inches overnight. It seems that just as the snow has finally stopped, it comes right back again. It wouldn’t be so bad if our roads would get plowed, but we are so far from the City that we are the last ones to see a plow. Have to wait until every place else is done first. Oh, well maybe by the time they make it here the snow will have melted. But I have to admit, it is a beautiful site.
As of this time, I know for sure that many of us are still wandering about looking for things that pertains to Christmas. Aside from gifts to give to relatives, families, friends and close associates, everybody is also doing shopping looking for Christmas ornaments. Well, here at home, we have all types of different Christmas ornaments and decorations already that we brought every Christmas and if you could just see them, you could say that if we put them altogether in our Christmas tree, you won’t be able to see the tree anymore. But still, my wife is looking for more ornaments especially these glass Christmas ornaments that she was talking about that she saw when she browsed the Internet. I’ve never seen some glass ornaments but I sure would like to see them and most probably, the only place to find them is the Internet. Yes, that’s for sure.
Today is my birthday. Where have the years gone, I can’t believe 63 years have now gone by. OMG I’m becoming an old lady. But I don’t really feel like one. I guess that’s the good part. The bad part is every bone in my body aches, can’t see without my glasses, I’m overweight and ANOTHER YEAR OLDER!
With all the plentiful rain this year, the trees have not been stressed out as in the past few years. As a result the Autumn colors should be spectacular this year. I can hardly wait, although it does mean summer is coming to an end. This summer has been rather mild and never got really hot, so I can’t complain. As soon as the trees begin turning here in Tennessee I will be sure to post some pictures. In the meantime if any of you have Autumn photos you would like to send me please do, I’ll be happy to post them.
The picture below is one taken by a neighbor of mine a few years back of our lake.
I am so happy. I just received news of being named to the top 50 floral blogs by Interflora in the UK. You can see my new button on the right stating this. It really makes me feel good to find out my blog is being read by so many people.
Seems like the rain just does not want to quit. Been raining most of the month. Everytime I go outside I end up in a small puddle. The ground is thoroughly saturated and needs a good rest to dry out. It really looks like this will be a short summer and fall weather will be settling in early. I don’t mind the cooler weather I feel much better and can get out and do more.
HOPE EVERONE IS ENJOYING THE LAST OF THIS SUMMER, I can’t believe it is almost August already. Where do the days go?
