...

hello weekend.  you're teasing me you know - promising me all sunshiny days like today.  bright flowers, warm air, cute boys in worn jeans.  festivals and people smiling happy.  but i checked up on you.  you are pulling the bait and switch on me.  promising the sunshine but i just know you're going to wake me up with rain on a saturday.

that's not very nice you know.  not when it's a long weekend and i spent the last beautiful weekend moping around the house sick.  i cry foul.  *sigh*

but you never really listen to what i want.  you just do what you feel like...you're sort of funny that way.  and yes, even though i know rain is good for the flowers i planted last weekend, i don't want to hear it.  *pout*

what?  you might give me a bit of sunshine on monday.  well...i'm going to hold you to it.  don't be mean now...deal?  *holds out finger for pinky swear*

********************************************************************************
hope you all have a beautiful weekend - no matter the weather.  xo

    I love reading your thoughts. SO witty and clever...kind of reminds me of ...well ME! I'm hoping for a passing shower this weekend. Just to wet the earth because I'm too lazy to water my plants. Have a beautiful weekend doll!

    I'm hoping for sunshine as it might help me to get out and take some pictures. I'm so lazy about getting outta the apartment when the weather is gray. Enjoy the weekend, Char!

    Isn't it always the way :/

    Only Sunday is predicted for rain here. A park a few towns over is hosting their annual daffodil festival this weekend, with over 600,000 (yes, that's right) daffodils in bloom :)

    Loved this, Char. It's exactly how I feel but you put it into words so much better than I would have.

    I'm planning on snuggling up with my Netflix movies...The Blind Side and Young Victoria. I just hope we don't get the tornadoes.

    If you lived closer, I'd tell you to come enjoy the sun-shiny days at my place. I have lovely guest room, and cut boys in worn jeans play at the basketball court when the hot rays are pouring down.
    I'm sure you'd love it here!

    Oh, and one small detail... that basketball court is at the park behind my house. You could even just watch them from my back deck!

    It's gushing down by the bucketful here. So, we are all piled up with books and the soundtrack from Out of Africa. Yes, a beautiful weekend. Take care, friend.

    It's been pouring rain all day here... But it kind of suits my mood today. I hope whatever weather you got where you are, it suited your mood, too, dear.

    xoox,

    ...this photo is Yummy!

    The weekend here in RI started off with a beautiful, sunny, warm not hot, breezy Saturday...perfect for walking, an outdoor birthday party, photos of flowers...but today, Sunday, is rainy, chilly, grey...perfect for reading blogs, for writing some long overdue thankyou notes, for watching some movies on tv...got to make the best of what you got!
