It will be sunflowers. I am hoping to make a basket full of smalls soon. We will see.
Y'all the weather here is downright hot, humid, and miserable. I do NOT rush seasons since retiring. I did far too much of that during my teaching years, but I have to tell you that I am ready for some different weather (I think).
June was the rainiest month on record. I never checked on July, but it has rained so much that the bayou looks like a creek and my flowers are just tired of trying to make blooms only to have them pounded off. Things that are just green are lush, but anything that produces a bloom whether it is a geranium or a crepe myrtle is just tired looking.
It has been really hot as well. The kind of hot that even at 6:00 in the morning it hits you in the face when you walk out. Most of it is just humidity coming off the Gulf. A little happy medium of heat and rain would be nice, but it is AUGUST. August is usually this way, so I have no idea why I am complaining. Maybe I just have nothing to talk about but the weather.

Off to volunteer at church and grocery shop.

We have had some pleasant days mixed in with hot days. It is rainy and muggy here today. I am taking that opportunity to clean and do laundry. Kendall and Landon are here and this is their last day of summer. School starts tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteSchool starts here on Thursday. I can already tell it is happening as the grocery store wasn't as crowded this morning. The rain has literally hugged the coast here all summer. Not ok much sun at the beach. I am ready for a little sunshine.
DeleteI am ordering sunshine for our week at the beach in September.:)
DeleteNice sunflower is growing under your hands. Super! Here it is rainy too. I try to make it cozy at home: candles, good food etc
ReplyDeleteThanks. I have tried to enjoy catching up on things inside. It will quit in its own due time and I can work outside.
DeleteYou made good progress on small #2, Sandy. I love the looks of your August table.
ReplyDeleteBlues and greens always make me feel relaxed. I thought I better enjoy them before fall gets here.
