Trying to Think Positive Thoughts About Summer

I hate summer. Wow, that wasn't very positive....it just came out.

But yeah, I really do hate it. I hate the HOT weather, I hate the bugs, I hate spontaneously combusting when I get in my car.

I don't see how it's possible for anyone who has grown up in the great state of Alabama to like this mutiny. Life would be so much better with a pool. Jason, are you reading this?

I'm trying so very hard to enjoy tolerate this summer because I am 20 pounds lighter than last summer and my skin no longer has it's vampirish hypersensitivity to sunlight.

In the spirit of being tan(ner), thin(ner), and surviving this summer, I thought I'd share a few positive thoughts about summer this year.



Summer means Barons games!


Summer brings new growth.

Like my new tomatoes!


And my gigantic blueberry!


And my wonderful gardenias!


And my knockout roses!

But...summer also brings loss....

Like the loss of Joe's second tooth!


Seems like just yesterday he was growing those teeth.

I'm determined to make this summer a great one. I still hate the heat so if you have a pool.......want to be friends?

Please?

  1. Hmmmm.. I'm not sure what's worse. A hot summer or 8 months of winter! We're still in the 60's here and I am begging for warm weather! You definitely need to find a friend that has a pool. Maybe find a house that has one and then take them some of that bread! :)
