Jun. 18th, 2022 07:47 pmOur dailies are panicking, because temperatures might be going up to 36 degrees. Hello? Did no one notice that it's summer already, and that, at least for the part of the country I live in, summer seems to take place in June, with a short revival in July? Besides, here we will be up to 28 today, so no panicking is called for. Farmers here will be glad that they finally get two days without rain, to do hay instead of silage...
Hopefully we will see a lot of summer solstice bonfires this weekend. I love to see them come alight, when dusk sets in. Maybe I will sacrifice a bottle of wine and wander to one of our neighbours. Her view towards the hills and mountains is better than ours!
The family will meet up at son number one for BBQ in the afternoon. Tomorrow the same bunch will meet up at our house for frolicking in the pool and lunch, of course. I will do the cooking, and if it gets too noisy, I will retreat to the studio and do some knitting or napping. Swimming will have to wait, until family is back home.
I have been productive today, even though I should be tired- got my last Whatsapp message sent by number three around midnight (must be really hard to understand that I told him I was in bed early), was off at 3:15, could not sleep and had breakfast at five- and just when I was falling asleep again a former student sent me pictures of her budgies and told me, that she'd be off to Croatia this morning, budgies in tow. I was delighted to hear about this and decided, that maybe getting up was the best option. To prevent me from falling back into bed later I stripped the bedding and the cover of the mattress topper and put it into the washing machine. Everythings ready for being put back on the bed- so where's husband, when you need him?
