Mild May

We're enjoying an unusually mild spring so far, with sunny skies and afternoon temperatures only in the low to mid 70s. Frequently I hear people passing me on my walks say things like, "Enjoy it while you can!" And I know exactly what they mean. The combination of heat and humidity that this region is known for is bound to return. In the meantime . . .

Sit a Spell

 

It seems that I have become quite obsessed with gardens recently. I happened to find this one a particularly nice place to sit and rest one fine morning this past week.

April showers may indeed bring May flowers, as they did again this year, but these were brought to my house by florists. :-)

Rebel with a Clause

 

Started reading Jovin’s book yesterday and it’s already a lot of fun. This, for example: “In New York, a fashionably dressed young woman told me, ‘I am an obsessive lover of footnotes,” then pulled out her phone and showed me a photo of her foot with ibid tattooed on it. I had met my first footnote fetishist!” — Rebel with a Clause by Ellen Jovin
