in preparation for my trip to australia
i'm making last minute
spinnings
while the weather is moving all
around
the skies are
strong
in the distance
the high peaks
and down the road
but today it peaked
over 90 degrees.
wendy is panting
i fell into a huge nap after work
and now, now maybe i can breathe
a quart of strawberries
amish grown
filled my kitchen with ripeness
a suprise for
supper,
with tea and toast.
I like seeing fibers, there are stories in the making.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's wierd about your weather. its been cool here all day, in the 70's. I wore socks and now have on a sweater. Suppose to be in the 70's and sunny for the rest of the week, but 50's at night.
love the spinning and the clouds. it was 100 here today.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we can speak even tho we can't see each other while you're here, unless of course you come up to Sydney, then i can catch the train down to meet you. Xchange phone nos?
ReplyDeleteit might get to 65F here today. 90F would be unheard of! how do you survive? oh...the strawberries!!
ReplyDeleteyou are so good at preparing! we had wind today. i thought of you a lot as i spun paper scraps!
ReplyDeletevalerie, stories seem to appear these days! send me your cool!
ReplyDeletedeanna, how can you manaage?
kaite, let's keep that open, huh?
lF, struggling here! and the strawberries, sublime.
aimee, not really so good. spin away.
ReplyDeleteThis is like a weather post. No rain in days n 90 here. My puppy pants n I with. It's not fun especially with no AC. But I prefer breathing air from my window instead of a can. You spinning is grand n excitment is in the air too I'm sure. The clouds are making lovely designs for you to imagine n play with. Cheers.
ReplyDeleteSpinning the clouds! Beautiful :) It was about 92 degrees here...but it is that hot or hotter everyday it seems!
ReplyDeleteoh, it's getting close - exciting. The strawberries sound delicious. It's still coolish here on the West coast but no floods and no forest fires, I'm thankful for anything.
ReplyDeleteprepare for a whole mess of COLD over this side of the pond! (I'm still beating myself up that I can't get to melyborn while you are on aussie soil) insert unhappy face here
ReplyDeletehenrietta, i applaud you for living sans a.c. me, too, but it's usually milder here!
ReplyDeletenancy, spinning clouds, indeed! tooooo hot
jean, i wonder if we'll be having fires soon, if this keeps up.
ronnie, well, you know, i like cold! should i bring my skiis? i will miss you, too.
What wonderful clouds. Not so wonderful temps. Ah...a nap after work. That sounds delightful...as do the strawberries.
ReplyDeleteIt's nippy over here in South Africa (a dusting of snow on distant mountains) but the sun is shining and the sky is the most beautiful blue. A quart of strawberries .... yum!
ReplyDeleteweather and spinning. same here.
ReplyDeletejennifer, i fell into that nap, and soundly.
ReplyDeleterobyn, how i would love to see south africa! when you come here, come in june for strawberries!
jude, little wheels spin and spin and the big wheels turn around...
Those mountains and views are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGet lots of sleep, take all those extra naps....
nancy, i will keep trying to nap! the mountains are so healing, though i'm in the foothills, the big ones have a different presence.
ReplyDeleteV-beautiful spinning that will translate into gorgeous weaving. B
ReplyDeletebarry, that's my hope!
