Monday in New England

Monday…Fun-day…Workday!

Monday found us having…more rain. Yes, it is true. The rain and dark skies have not left the northeast part of the USA. I do not wish to complain because there are parts of my country far worse off right now than we are. I pray for those who have lost everything in the floods and the tornadoes.

Anyway, it was cold again on Monday and wet. I washed my hair, and the next thing I knew I had frizzy curls. So much for the natural look.

Monday found me potting my tomatoes, eggplants and peppers in patio pots for the summer. It went well, and I worked like crazy and then set the newly re-planted pots outside to enjoy the slightly warmer temperatures, but continued rain.

Hubby sat down rather unhappily today as we had to face the fact that we will have a significantly smaller fruit crop. You see, this is the time when the bees work our trees and pollinate the crop. It isn’t happening, so…..the fruit crop will be greatly reduced.

It’s just a week and a half until we leave on a short vacation for Hubby’s 50th college reunion. He graduated from Middlebury College, and since this is his big reunion, we are going back and doing the reunion in style. We have a house sitter coming in to care for the dogs and the house, and we will be staying in the beautiful Middlebury Inn . I told Hubby that since this was his 50th reunion, we should do it right. I will be reporting in from the reunion, as the motel has WiFi.

I am praying for warm, sunny weather for our trip. Vermont is so beautiful at this time of year, when it is warm and dry!

Fingers crossed for good weather!
