Texas. Summer. I’ll start my seasonal bitching about now. Here it is, early April, and we’ve been having temps in mid to upper 80′s (F) for several weeks now. I know some people don’t understand my problem. There are four seasons. Spring, summer, autumn and winter. But, with that in mind, you have to remember I live in TEXAS. We have our own seasons. Three of them. Almost summer, summer, just past summer. I’ve been known to wear shorts and a halter top on Valentime’s Day. About the same with Christmas a few times. I will admit we did have snow mid April. On Easter Sunday no less. We still joke about being sure to color the eggs before hiding them. Anyway, here it is, early April and we’re enjoying mid 80′s. 85F to be exact.
Other great things going on in my little world? I have the habit of divding people in my world into two categories. Relatives and non. If I speak of a ‘best friend’ that can either be a best friend=relative or a best friend=non relative. This past week I lost my very best friend=non relative. No death or anything like that. Just a lose. Someone I’ll miss very much. (don’t ask for details. There won’t be any forthcoming from me.)
Chat room: About the same. One of the idiots from the past has started lurking. He changed his user-name in hopes no one will recognize him then just logs in and sits. Cute. Oh, and there was almost a real conversation going on the other night. A few of us were chatting about design related things. Fun for about fifteen minutes.
Husband and I have been giving a bit of thought to selling our house. Neither of us have been overly happy with it. The house is just smaller than we’d like and the yard is way larger than we want/need. Not something we’re going to jump into without serious thought. Right now isn’t the best time to get top dollar for any property. And no one in their right mind would want to move to our town. We’re just way to far from things. I’ll keep you posted.
Today’s photo is another from my front lawn. An antique, cast iron, wash pot. This was taken a couple months ago. Right now it holds yellow and pink flowers . Oh, and I just noticed. It’s a tad dull looking in the photo. Since this was taken, we’ve repainted the pot and frame. Maybe I should consider a new photo?
