To Read on the Journey

Saturday, June 27, 2009

Dear June,

dear month of june,

you spoiled me with 24 unusually cool days.
thank you for the opportunity to sit outside on my swing and enjoy a cool breeze. thank you for letting me run a few errands with out sweltering heat. thank you for mild temps, mid-day play dates at the park. thank you for meals on the back patio. thank you for open windows and screen doors, for letting the sweet fragrances from my flower filled yard drift in with your breeze. thank you for not killing my hydrangeas.

but june, today it is HOT! and it has been hot for the past few days. so hot i am stuck indoors. indoors with 3 noisy, need-to-go-outside-and-play-and-take-their-noise-with-them-kids! indoors with ms."i'm bored," and ms."i have nothing to do," and mr."mommy, can i play wii." indoors huddled up together under the air-conditioning vent. june, we do not function well cooped up indoors.

so please return to those breezy, cool, sunny days. please.

oh and could you tell your friend july to do the same!

Where do I sign that letter? I hate days like today and even worse I hate the cheery weather people that praise weather like this. I mean honestly, go report the weather from outside! Then tell me how perfect and beautiful it all is. No standing under the shade either, right in the middle of the sun.

Love and Hugs ~ Kat
