after a short nap tonight, while I was making dinner, a lovely guest arrived for their dinner…

20140609-214956-78596702.jpghad a few minutes to take some shots and am looking forward to checking out the camera photos…

had a visit with a friend and then went out and started emptying the hot tub…

20140609-215251-78771492.jpgthe last few weeks there has been lots of foam so I think it is a good plan to put in fresh water… hope I have the time to start filling it tonight, but that might not happen until after work tomorrow…

some days those big girl pants seem to fit fairly well…

first thing I had a very peaceful hot tub in the rain…

then I spent a good portion of the day watching some PVRed shows once I talked to MTS because it hasn’t been working since Friday night when the tech person was here to work on the wifi…

did take a walk to the Park to check out the tulips in the English Garden… they were nearly done but I got a few pics, although they are on my camera, not my phone… this picture is of the pond in the Leo Mol Garden…

20140608-194917-71357335.jpgspent a few moments sitting on a bench and watching a red-winged blackbird… arrived home just as the rain started again…

napped, watched more tv, and got a few pictures of the planters on the front step…the plants have obviously enjoyed the gentle rains over the last few days… good timing to get them all into the ground or pot, lol…

Friday night was supposed to be a great night for the Camelopardalid meteor shower…

it was clear, so I set my alarm to get up at 1:30 am… best time here was supposed to be from 1 to 3…

took a blanket and pillow out and saw one shooting star as I was setting up my spot…

stayed out there for an hour or so without seeing anything… the weather was beautiful and warm so it was cozy…

eventually I decided to have a hot tub, which was lovely, and then went back to bed…

tonight as I was working on this post I found this from the torontosun.com – Not many people got to see the Camelopardalid meteor shower. It was that estimated more than 200 meteors per hour were expected to drop. Unfortunately, only a few meteors spotted during that two-hour time period of the storm.

didn’t start work until two today as I was working a trade show into the evening, so I had a lovely morning…

started with a hot tub, listening to the birds and enjoying the beauty in the back yard… there is NO snow left…

20140502-214003.jpgwalked over to get a haircut, picked up a breakfast sandwich, and had a little nap when I got home…

vacation is over… but it was wonderful…

lovely Easter Day…

started with time in the hot tub listening to sparrows and a woodpecker, seeing my first robin, and geese flying overhead…

later laid out in the sun and actually have a bit of pink on my arms and face…

kids came over and we had a lovely afternoon hunting for eggs, painting chocolate, colouring and reading…

then a great dinner with turkey and all the trimmings, and a small rack of lamb…

cupcakes and a visit from friends before everyone left…

20140420-212342.jpg some Easter eggs from the hunt, left behind for me… yum…

ready for my bed, lol…

thank goodness it is Friday…

seems like it’s been a very long week…
difficult times for friends, technology issues and possibly a cold coming on…

some good news… an appointment made, conversations with my girls and my grandson getting into a great program…

have enjoyed some lovely times in the hot tub as the weather has improved…

my violet is getting ready to bloom again… this is what it looked like the last time…

a beautiful day… had a lovely nap in the warm sunshine this afternoon…

20140405-215012.jpg
the neighbour had his motorcycle out…

when I was outside, in my bare feet on the deck, putting chemicals in the hot tub, I could hear the snow melting from the garage roof… you can actually see the snow melting away…

had windows open for the first time for a good portion of the day… very nice…

just had a wonderful hot tub… finally the temperature feels like Spring…

wondering when all the snow will be gone…

last night I spent some time in the hot tub…

was thinking about the conversations that George and I used to have there late in the evening, in the dark…

we’d talk about work, the house, the kids, everything…

went through the day missing him… we had a few jobs at the office that he would have helped sort out…

had problems with some technology during the day and this evening as well…

feel a bit like spring will never come… reminded me of a card I received from a former colleague, a number of years ago… came across it when I was working on the shelves in the hall… it mentioned that spring always comes…

trying to hold onto that… need to get some more flowers I think… they often help…

these crocuses have all died off now…

took this picture from upstairs this morning… sun was shining

20140315-213941.jpg you can see how the snow is melting on the deck rail and even on the bench…

went for dim sum with the kids and then we went to pick up a bit more wool and of course we found a few other bits and pieces… I got a ceramic knife and look forward to testing it out tomorrow…

stopped at the mall for a while and when I finally got home I had a nap…

later I had the left over dim sum for my dinner…

last night I had a lovely hot tub… it wasn’t very cold and clouds were floating across the sky while the nearly full moon shone brightly… lovely and quiet as the jets didn’t come on… nice treat…
