Where is Summer?

Here we are in mid July and it still feels like Spring, not Summer. Now, don't get me wrong, I like the weather to be "liveable" around 75F (I don't use Celsius, so sue me LOL) and a little breeze is nice. I would like to go swimming in my neighbour's pool or at the beach, so could 'the powers that be' PLEASE get the weather up to par so it feels like summer?
No more whining, about the weather. I'm not up to much today, a wonky stomach....probably my body's revenge for eating those fantastic, tastey cookies I had after supper. Won't admit how many, but obviously I can't eat that many again! Oh, pain and nausea are such good deterents aren't they? I've learned my lesson (again!) that I can't undulge like that anymore.
Now, after some ginger tea and a banana, I'm off to the great outdoors....my garden to pull up some weeds and wage war against the squirrels and chipmunks that invade the bird feeders.
So, my friends, take care..........and stay out of the Cookie Jar! (at least for today ;o) )
3:00 pm: I'm going to post pics of my garden when all the renovations have been done. Right now it's all dug up and kinda bare looking. My intention is to separate and replant the Hostas, the Tiger Lilies, the Peonies, and the Irises on the little hill at the back of the yard. So, my friends something for you to look forward to!

Oh, I've been a glutton for punishment many a time with dipping my hand into the cookie jar one too many times. And then I swear off them (for awhile) until I weaken! And the viscous cycle starts all over.

My family and I have been saying the exact same thing about the weather, it feels like May and we are all still waiting for summer! It's too cold for the pool, and the few attempts we've made have been pitiful. Everyone is usually in there for hours and hours playing game after game of volleyball, but so far only one game has been played. Oh well. There are worse things in life.

Feel better!
Enjoy your garden!

If you want to know where summer its...don't look too hard...it's down here in Georgia and it is sweltering hot. It was 95 F yesterday and the day before but the humidity index shot it up into the 100s! Can I send some of this your way, please?

Will we get pictures of your garden?

blessings and hugs,

Forgot to tell you that oreo cookies have been my recent downfall and now I am using the excuse that I need to finish the box (sadly a BIG box too)!!

O.K. since we are all confessing, I ate two ice cream cones in one day.
But I am sorry that you didn't feel well after the cookies! Everyone has been gardening lately and I feel guilty as I have just not been in the mood. It's hot here today too, 90 degrees and horribly humid!
