Good morning all
What a beautiful start to the day .. .. .. could we be having a bit of summer today do you think? Beautiful blue skies here with sunshine and a bit of wind for drying that washing .. .. .. it doesn't take much to keep me happy does it?
I was quite disappointed the other day to hear on the radio that the nights will be starting to "draw in" next week!!! What is that all about?!? I haven't even spent a summer evening sitting in the garden yet!!!
Anyway on that depressing note let me see if I can brighten up your day with a little share.

Have a lovely day everyone - I hope the sun shines on you!

Well, it took a while Jules but the sun is shining here now too and yes I'm smiling 'cos I can get my washing out as well. I know the nights start drawing in next week because it's Jun 21st which was my late Mum and Dad-in-laws wedding anniversary and they were always teased that they got married on the longest day (shortest night????)
ReplyDeleteLove the card. The sparkles are so pretty. If you're using up scraps do you want mine? I have 3 boxes full (small, medium and large). I hardly ever think to search in there when I want a scrap but can't bear to throw them away so they just keep migrating to bigger boxes, Lol!

ReplyDeleteeeI spent the whole day outside in the garden - got lods done and also managed to have a sit watching the view for a while before cooking the diner. It was such a lovely day and the sea was so blue I could have sat there till it was dark (but it's not that warm yet in the evenings.
