Monday night. Am wishing summer would get here! It's been an awfully cool & wet spring, and though everything's green and blooming, enjoying the outdoors is kind of hard. Other than watching the robins in the backyard bird bath enjoying a bath in the rain. :)

I've also seen finches, blue jays, chickadees, blackbirds and cardinals, among the requisite squirrels and chipmunks scampering on our backyard fence. Having wildlife in the backyard is a simple joy in life and more people should sit back with a cup of hot tea in your hand and just watch nature take its course.

3 and a half months until my England vacation. Patience. I haven't been on a plane since 2002. Longest time ever between flights. I'm even looking forward to jet lag.

I'm watching So You Think You Can Dance on TV, I've been watching since it's first season, and I'm always excited by the new bunch of dancers. That's what makes summer so.....summer. C'mon and get some!
