I am enjoying sitting here in my covered patio, for we have many mosquitos here, but now, I don't have to worry about them! I am listening to the water fountain and the birds, as I peruse Blogland. I hope your weather out in the UK is good; we are enjoying one of the most beautiful summers ever.<br /><br />Sending loving greetings to you and may this day be a magical journey for you and yours!

My mum wrote the exact same words in my autograph book when I was a little girl. She also wrote, “My heart is like a cabbage and when it’s cut in two the leaves I give to others but the heart I give to you” I’ve not thought about that for years. <br />Your little kitty is pretty indeed as is Matilda, and she’s not at all scary!<br />I wanted to call in and say hello before heading out into the sun. <br />It’s such a beautiful day I feel a glass of wine and a good book coming on. Now where did I put that pretty sun hat?

With so much rain, our flowers are exploding in size! Our neighbor came to the door one day and was joking around. We answered the door when he rang and he says, "I'm from the city inspector's office....I understand your flowers are on steroids...." teeeheeee....<br /><br />HAVE A FUN DAY MY FRIEND!
