Sun

May 26, 2025 at 8:49 am by Claudia

The clematis is blooming. Strangely, most of the flowers this year are not on the street-side of the boxwoods, but are blooming on the porch-side. So I get to see them when I’m sitting on the porch. I guess they decided to give us a private viewing this year.

It’s sunny today. That is a big deal because most of the last week has been gray, rainy, windy, and cold. Even on days when no rain was forecast, there would be sudden showers coming out of nowhere. I am over it.

We have to mow today or tomorrow – most likely, tomorrow. So today I’m going to pull some of the many weeds that have sprung up from all the rain. Mostly, I just want to get outside. It’s been hard being house bound.

I hope you have a lovely day today, especially if you’re getting together with family and friends.

On this day, we remember those who lost their lives while serving our country. We honor them today and always.

It always seems ridiculous to say “Happy Memorial Day” when we remember what this day really means. So I won’t.

Stay safe.

Happy Monday.

Welcome!

Welcome!

I live in a little cottage in the country with my husband. It's a sweet place, sheltered by old trees and surrounded by gardens. The inside is full of the things we love. I love to write, I love my camera, I love creating, I love gardening. My decorating style is eclectic; full of vintage and a bit of whimsy.

I've worked in the theater for more years than I can count. I'm currently a voice, speech, dialect and text coach freelancing on Broadway, off Broadway, and in regional theater.

Thanks for stopping by.
