Oh My! It Is HOT Today!

When I went downstairs, this morning at 7:00, and looked at the thermostat it said 85degrees.....I wasted no time in starting the closing of all the windows and turning on the air conditiner!!! I wait with such anticipation, for spring, to open the windows and doors and let the soft breezes in, none today!, and so it was with great reluctance, that I finally give in to closing them, again, for some cool air! :(

The sky has been hazy with humidity and now big fluffy clouds with seeminly no edges, are gathering and I am hoping, fingers crossed, we might get a storm to cool things off....I was out early watering the gardens and the grass as in this weather
they get droopy fast!

With the house cool, I could finish this little pillow....didn't she turn out cottage cute with her bouquet of little vintage posies? You can find her on my website....

Where has the day gone? It is almost dinner time, but it will be easy tonight with fresh corn on the cob, my pasta salad, hamburgers and chocolate cake for that man of mine!!!

Hello blog friends....I hope your week got off to a better start than mine...lol! Nothing serioius, just little bumps and all of a sudden I have gone stupid about putting a link on! What is this about?? I have put lots on, believe me, but now, when I think I have a link on I do not....I am doing some little thing wrong and not seeing it! Ugggg....I will study on it after dinner...

But...I was able to finish another Southern Belle Pillow..great for taking your mind off troubling matters....I love these little Belles and think they are so charming with ribbon embroidery....I love the ones with the full crocheted skirts, but I am all thumbs with a crochet hook, so this is my take with them....

~SOLD~

And, now my camera is not behaving....and the sun actually came out when I took these....I am going to have to go and give it a little sweet talk and get out my book to see why they are so dark....see,.... another little bump in the road...
