We've been having some beautiful days, too, but the last couple have been a little breezy and chilly. I kind of like going out in the rain as long as I'm dressed for it, and I love getting all dry and cozy when I come home. However, I don't like the rain when I have to run from my car in the lower parking lot at work. Sometimes I'm soaked by the time I get in the building!

I've always felt that, I wonder why? Rain happens, it's the same for the working week-day, employees are looking forward to a clear weekend. I love the little viola, will definately get some punnets of those for the winter months ahead still. Oh, I<br />'ve never seen the blue flower following it, a little bulb no doubt; beautiful, and the crocuses after that. Good idea celebrating the same month birthdays in one hit. Good one, on the new neighbour (she sounds like me :).
