We are now in the Summer Season (believe it or not!) The weather has been horrendous however last weekend there was an afternoon of sunshine and so to take advantage I got out the blanket, book & water. I nipped back into the house for a minute and what happened when I came back out?

At 7pm this evening the sun came out – but very very briefly and now it’s raining again.
Today I needed to get good news but it wasn’t to be 
This is Mini and he had to be put down this evening ’cause he had Lymphoma that was compressing his airways. I’m heartbroken and look like a mad woman weeping randomly.

At the moment the weather here is going from dark to not dark and back to dark again. I’m sure there’s a sun up in the sky but it doesn’t seem to want to come out to play. So cheat time here’s a rather dashing sunset I took a few months ago and slightly grey morning.
This is my sister with her young son (who is now almost 2yrs). I was tempted to use this for yesterdays photo Smile but I think she has that happy glow of a new mother.
I may have mentioned on occasion that I’m not very fond of exercise however I do acknowledge that it needs to be done. However this morning wasn’t going to be the day I started to get up and go for a walk as it has been piddling out of the heavens since I woke up an hour or two ago. I did decide, however, that I could try one of my two exercise DVDs (while I still had the resolve). Do you think they were anywhere to be found? Nope, not a chance! I even looked in rather odd places – cookbook shelf, video shelf (yes there are still videos here), craftbook shelf, Desk, but no, nowhere to be found.
Do you think that the fates have decided that exercise is out for the day?
… or in this case a pair of smiles.
