Where is the sun?

June 2010

rain, rain, rain,........

temperature: 53 ° F!


I can´t remember a year, when I had to heat the flat in June!
Took the photo at my parents house- it was so cosy with the fire.
While I am writing these lines I am smiling because of having to heat nearly in summer and because I ´m sounding like an old aunt, always complaining about the weather.
Have to stop that and drink my lemon balm tea - but not an iced one;-)


I like that photo of my glass of tea- taking a glass instead a cup is cool for taking photos but not so cool for drinking hot tea.

But I nearly do everything for a great shot;-)
My mood is getting better and better- I just have to avoid looking out of the window. Will bake some white bread, then it´s warmer , too:-) lol

I organized a meeting in an ice cream parlor in the mid of June, but fortunately there is a coffee shop around the corner where we could have some tea and coffee instead of the cold icecream.

It´s so crazy! That should be spring- nearly summer???
But the good thing is, I have to spend time at home. So no excuse for not writing.

And I make good time , gladly!! Now I write one assignment after the other ( or 2 at the same time) and although it had been a hard weekend, I finally finished one piece of writing. At the end of the working year- before holidays -writing isn´t that easy sometimes. But all in all there is progress! Yeah! And tomorrow again time to relax! Again a longer weekend here. Great!

Dark, darker,....

Thunderstorm, hail, floodings, tornado!!! Yes, really, there are tornados outside the USA- even in Austria. I haven´t heard about this before. And today it took me more than 40 minutes to drive about 10 miles. Floodings everywhere. Sometimes I had to stop driving because I couldn´t see the street any longer. It was horrible.

But it´s the best weather for working inside;-) I try to revise my MS without much success. Everything is so obvious. Nearly no surprises. I think I have to add much more than I have ever thought of. Well, that´s life. Full of... - what? Surprises? Ok. Unwanted or wanted. Have to deal with them. Or even better, have to learn how to deal best--during a car-ride through the floodings and during revising my draft.

Something else- I got another book for my course, so I get everything little by little. I was told that the last one should cross the big ocean in about 2 weeks. Well, what should I do? Have to wait and drink some tea. Fits to the weather.It´s so cold outside!!!

Quote-corner:

Maybe we can laugh together;-) even if it´s gallows´ humor.

“Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.”

John Ruskin Have to keep that in mind!!
