WET, COOL AND DARK, MUTTERING BUT SWEET, AND CHORES CAUGHT UP!
1.At last the heat wave has broken, resoundingly so, with a wonderful day long rain that shushed down all during the time the sun should have been out, and went drippingly quiet as soon as a wonderful red, gold and purple sunset shone through.As the Violet sky dwindled into darkness,I sat with the door open, with the fresh cool breeze coming straight in blowing on my face,making my hair flutter back, lifting it off my neck, and listening to the night birds,and Teddy calling softly back in my ear, just enjoying the quiet of the fans and the air conditioners turned off. Beautiful, beautiful moments! I felt like I was flying!
2.Before he left for work, Yon son went, a little mutteringly, to pour the excess rainwater off the Lavender plant, which sits in an urn on the portch.Not realizing how much rain we had had, he was somewhat annoyed, because usually, I am asking him to water it, and now that the rain has done that, I now want him to pour it off? His muttering stopped when he saw that the urn was almost overflowing with water,and realized the lavender could easily drown, otherwise. Then, even though he hadn't said a grumpy word aloud to me, he came and asked me to forgive him and kissed me.What a darlin' man!
3.We changed the hours of my help, and she came during the cool of the evening, so she was energized, and so was I.Amazingly, for the first time in months and months, all the chores are caught up,and what a wonderful feeling THAT is! Instead of spending the evening with my nerve endings singing with irritation, I got sleepy, because I was sooo comfortable, and relaxed, so I went to nest early!
OUI?
