summer

I really do like summer.

But I have to admit that it's much more fun when you're a kid. And it's SUMMER. And it lasts SO long! And you can't wait to get out of school ... and then back to school!

WAIT! back to summer. My summer means full-time work. Watching the hired mowers cutting the grass. Turning my heater on when 71 degrees is too cold for me. Wishing I was home.

But sometimes it's...

Finding your first ripe tomato!















Fresh green beans from your tiny garden.














Having a Jackson who loves to eat green beans. :-) Yes, he loves them.


















Summer. It's good. :-)

Fabio

an obvious boy/girl exchange this morning while I'm combing my hair.


J: "aw man, I can't imagine having hair that long."

L: "do you want hair this long?"

J: "no"

L: "Yeah, and I don't want hair as short as yours."

J: "Yeah. Well... if I had thick hair, I would like it long."

L: "EEEEEEEW."

J: "Ohh..... FABIO!!!" (Kiss on the cheek.)


No, Jeremy, I prefer bald men.

For Today...

Outside my window... drops of rain and wind-blown trees.

I am thinking... about going home.

From the learning rooms... why I can't be anything I want to be. I can only love being who I am designed to be.

I am thankful for... good people.

From the kitchen... week old brownies. :-)

I am wearing... my black $3 Ann Taylor LOFT shirt with tan & gold capris. Brown and Black -- I love you Europe!

I am reading... in blogland.

I am hoping... to have fun with my husband.

I am creating... living room curtains.

I am hearing... computer buzz and ladies talking.

Around the house... is my puppy and his hairballs.

One of my favorite things... laughing with my love.

A few plans for the rest of the week... seeing friends and a Saturday wedding.


Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...











Love from Slovenia. :-) Georgeous, isn't she?
