Buff, is that the Summer solstice? Omg, we look forwards to Spring solstice! The flowers are out by then. My tulips have already died. I'm feeling for you in the 'cold' zones. Carol and Ron might like your temps. But, me, no thanks.
Carol, I think i might be a little like ur hubby. I'm looking at fb marketplace to sell the clothes and shoes i never did wear in 20 years, lol. I'd like to raise a little money for wildlife charity. There's none of those around our way. So i'd prefer to sell cheap and give money to the charities i support. Mind, i can't pass by a charity shop just looking for a book to read. So i give to all charities. That's the way i see it. I've lived a little on the cheap due to my health and my income (part time work only). I needed those that donated to charity and quite a lot has gone to other charities already.
Today was beautiful. I had booked a mini bus trip with friends. We went to the Peak District for the day. Was lovely, just a tad too long for my energy levels. I think we Crohnies know about energy levels. On the way home i so wanted to sleep, but to be at home and sleep. I didn't get tetchy with anyone on the trip, none of my friends knew how i hurt, ached and just wanted to be home. We smiled, joked, the sun was good, and not too hot. I love a trip out. I was never too fit for them, little did i realise. God, i had a lot to learn so many years ago with just Crohn's disease. Now i'm older and feeling gaunt and in blast beruffled plume. The dandylions are amazing this year, as are the bluebells. Wow, how the seasons have changed.
I'm tired and i hope to sleep well. Thanks for being here friends. I'll probably tell you my weather tomorrow.
