Hubby is out at Home Depot, supposedly getting the Crepe Myrtle tree (which on Sunday he said he’d get Monday, but now it’s Tuesday, but that’s A-OK.)<\/p>\n
The Yoshino Cherry trees we have in the front yard are coming along fine, one is putting up it’s many buds and many of them are close to opening, and one branch higher up has some from one place actually opening, tomorrow they should be lovely, the first instrument in the concert of Yoshino Beauty, the rest of the orchestra will join in eventually, sooner than later. The other two trees are behind in development, but fastly catching up.<\/p>\n
The tree behind our house that is blooming right now looks about Peek today, so I’ll get a picture of it again tomorrow (having taken one a couple of days ago, avail on my Flickr site, linked in a post from that day.)<\/p>\n
Temperatures hit over 80 degrees F. today. It wasn’t too hot though really, just nice, nice dry air, not too dry, not humid. If summer were like this, it’d be alright, but that’s not the way it is. Anyhow, the over-the-top temps are not normal for March in GA, nearly 20 degrees higher than normal. FWIW. It’ll be cooler in a couple of days, similar tomorrow to today, then about 10 degrees less the next day, then the day after that 10 degrees even lesser … and days following going up and down from there to the mid and higher 60’s and maybe higher here and there, according to accuweather’s site. All in all, a decent beginning to Spring. It’s cool enough at night to not have to have the heat on and not have to put the A\/C on in the day time. Not too cold, not too hot, all working out alright. (It’s not going to last long though, the South gets muggy for sure once Spring really gets going, especially once it turns to Summer, before the actual Summer solstice.)<\/p>\n
Since the “time change” we are getting up before 6am, and I always am thinking, it’s alright now, when last week it’d be 4am-something when I woke up, and getting up then to start the morning with tea or coffee and checking out computer stuff, reading something, etc. — seems so unreasonable! It’s fine with me though, I’m just not sleeping all night every night, and often awake for awhile somewhere in the middle, then falling asleep and waking again before 5am, but that was old time, now it’s later though the same time, and quite good therefore. So I say my thanks to the powers that be that changed it, though that seems so strange to thank some government entity for something. It is only that they made it so that MY actual ways are in tune with the clock, so nah, nah, nah, nah, boo, boo to y’all. I didn’t change, y’all did, in actuality. Me, the sun, the birds, the trees, are all in tune with the earth, the clock doesn’t really run us. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
