It's been the most glorious week.
The sun has been shining.
BBQ's have been enjoyed.
Dresses have been worn.
Books have been read.
Pimm's has been drunk.
The flowers in the garden are out in bloom.
I'm sunburnt.
It's too hot to sleep.
There's little breeze.
I keep forgetting to water the plants.
My Achilles hurts from wearing sandals.
My head is thumping from too much sun.
But ...
I'm happy.
I love the outdoors.
Wearing a dress and sandals without having to fluff around with a jacket or remembering to carry an umbrella.
Leaving the table set up so it's ready for use, comfy and relaxing.
It reminds me of our lives abroad, a lifetime away now in South Africa and Dubai.
Your garden looks like a beautiful retreat. So lovely to spend time outdoors. Sorry about the sunburn, but glad you are happy. Hope you have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you've had a wonderful week enjoying the sunshine. Your garden looks like the perfect place to sit and enjoy a books and a Pimms. Have a lovely weekend.
ReplyDeleteIt has been a glorious week but too hot for me for the back end of it. What lovely photos! I keep forgetting to water the plants too. Oops. Your garden is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt's been lovely to get in the garden, but it got a bit too hot for me at the end of the week. Your plant pots look lovely and colourful and Pimm's in the sun sounds perfect! 😉
ReplyDeleteWe havent exactly had sun but there has been lots of reading :)
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a lovely week, of course the little things like headaches and mugginess are the pains of sun in the UK, I guess that Dubai and South Africa have good air conditioning. We should really have more here, new homes should be built with already installed. I have had trouble watering my plants, but thankfully the kids have helped. Once a day I can just about manage but twice is too much for me. I really need to get my garden water butt re-connected.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you've been able to enjoy the sunshine. Nice to have BBQs, enjoy Pimms in the sunshine and spend some time relaxing and reading and I'm glad the outdoor time has been making you happy. #WotW
