    Sitting with your book sounds an ideal way to spend the day - a day well spent indeed.

    We had rain yesterday but the sun has been shining again today - it's been beautiful - not as hot as it was but much more pleasant. Hope it doesn't burn itself out before we break up in 2 weeks time.

    Loving the book in the garden in the sun :)

    Glad you enjoyed your day and seem to be in better spirits.

    We do need the rain Beanie - as much as I hate to say it. There are some very large cracks in the soil in my garden and all the grass is brown - but at least Mr SA doesn't have to mow it - even the weeds aren't growing :)

    I have no grass, but sadly the weeds continue to grow at a great rate :(

    Had a lovely wee day with my mum today.
    We went out & had a late lunch/early tea.
    I had a very yummy strawberry sundae :drool: :drool:
