The Weather

Let's see.....

It's June here....

It's 57 degrees outside.....

It's raining....

Can I get some summer here??

Hannah planted some strawberries out front a week or so ago.....

Will they survive?

We want to plant some tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, cilantro, and some flowers...

Will we be able to?

When is this horrible weather going to end?

I need me some sun!

I don't know about you out there, but I do get sick of endless rain and cold. I love, love, LOVE sunny, warm weather! I lived in CA for the first part of my life, and that's what I love. I do miss it......but where I live is beautiful too, it's only the weather I hate!

The weather directly affects whatever is physically wrong with me. In this constant cold, damp, rainy weather, not only am I depressed, I'm also totally wiped out! It's so fun trying to be a good wife/mom when you're body's screaming at you to quit!!

Can I have a pity party for just a second here???

I've been praying for warm weather. I mean, it's JUNE, for the love of potatoes!

Do you think God cares what kind of weather I like??

I think God wants to hear whatever is on my mind and in my heart, and He is the maker of the weather, so yeah, I do think He cares! I long to see blue skies, whipped cream clouds, and green tree branches swaying in a gentle breeze. I want to feel the warmth of a golden sun on my face and feel its restorative heat seep into my bones....

And so, I'll keep praying for good weather!

How's the weather in your neck of the woods??

Hot, hot, HOT!!!

And occasionally sunny rain. Weird, huh? It's almost 9:30pm and still 82. I would LOVE to have your cooler weather right now! And for us, it's ONLY June... not even oppressively hot months of July or August.

I'm wishing for some weather like Marsha's having! It's raining up here too. We're headed east over the mountains tomorrow, and it's not even supposed to be nice there either...UGH! :(

We have HOT and HUMID. It was 90 and sticky today. It's suppose to be hot for a while. I do love warm sunny days. I will take humidity over snow and cold any day. I was driving home today and I was driving in and out of heavy rain, light rain, and no rain. It was very weird. Just keep your eyes on the Son and you will be smiling again:)

G'day
What a great blog you have - I stumbled on it through someones (way toooo much blogging)!!!
Well here in Australia (western NSW) we are in desperate need of some rain. And as for the temperature, well it was so warm today I would have thought it was spring, not winter!! Aren't the weather patterns wierd at the moment! So I'll swap you some sun & warmth for some rain!! Haha

57 degrees??? Last Friday we had highs up in the 90s....ugh, nearly 100 degrees!!! and we are on the EAST coast!!!

When I talked to my mom she said it was in the 80s in the midwest (MO)...so I guess we are having a heat wave. In fact, today is Saturday June 14...we are having heat again...near the 90s!

Your date with your hubby sounds fun! My hubby and I usually go out on our anniversary (June 15), but I don't think we will be going anywhere tomorrow as our caretaker job (of the property we are living on) calls...as does the possibility of us having 2 extra children (my friend, nearly sister, has been in false (maybe real) labor last evening & today...

Anywho, it is good to read your recent posts...don't feel bad about being "lazy" as we all have our moments! LOL!

Talk to you soon! Blessings!
