Summer is upon us

And as always I seem to pine for warmer days and summer sensations during the long dark days of winter and frozen springtime.

Here's a post back in March (and a pic of my sweet lil man) when I wanted summer so bad I found it hard to make it through the Spring weeks. Of course I enjoyed Spring, but it just seemed to be for two weeks then Summer came straight away. Now it's hot, hot, hot.

I sit and write this as I listen to a summertime thunderstorm. The air is moist and humid, and steam rises as the cool rain falls on the hot ground.

Finally we have some reprieve from ankle swelling heat. Funny how in Winter I welcome this hot season and when it's here, I long for the rain.

(Be content Lissa, enjoy each time for its own pleasures)
