would somebody please tell the atmosphere that it's the END of MAY? these cooler temperatures and rainy days are supposed to come in April, and May is the month of flowers. i guess the current atmosphere wasn't taught the "april showers bring may flowers" rhyme? geez.

we've got two more days of rain and highs in the 50s to go until we can experience warm sunshine again (starting friday!). it's been like this for about two weeks now.

we already put away our winter wardrobe, so i've been washing and rewashing sweatpants and sweatshirts and socks for this family of five.

i'm so ready for summer!!!!

To help you feel better, you can think of me, who is pregnant in the summer. It has been nice to avoid broiling hotness.

I've been on vacation and just now catching up on my blog reading. Sorry to hear about the cold weather and the bear eating the honey. If i lived close by, you would have to set Reynie traps to keep me away from eating the honey. I bet it will be really good over hot biscuits! Best of luck keeping him away!

You might check out this Web site for some easy craft projects that might make the prolonged indoor time slightly more bearable (and get ideas for next winter!):
