This was a very large bee–like a little hummingbird. I took this pic today in my backyard. I love bees, perhaps because my name means honey-bee.
Too hot to sit in the shade even with a cold drink. I walked to the park in the forest with the girls to meet my mom for an iced tea party in the pine forest. We brought a blanket and books–for a lazy old fashioned afternoon in the forest. It was too hot to stay.
Happy Birthday to my dad today! He is almost exactly thirty years older than me.
The sleep over last night was a tad exhausting. The girls dragged their bed mattresses down into the family room for the night. Tabs woke me in the middle of the night to say Pip wet the bed. I was too tired to move and instructed her to grab her some fresh PJ’s and put a towel down until morning.
I worked this morning on the lit review until I was burnt out.
Miranda just called to say they are heading to the beach at Bertram’s tonight. It is about a 1/2 h drive from our place so I declined. I don’t feel like doing much tonight in this heat wave. A dip in the lake would be nice but I don’t want to venture any farther than the nearest beach. We rented a few movies tonight in case we all felt like a night in.
This weekend I will work and Peter is taking all three girls to the computer lab at the Uni from 9:30 AM to 2:30 PM. He wants to be there for his students. I’m sure the girls will keep him busy. They’ll find the lab amusing for a short time and then insist he take them to the cafeteria for snacks.
Change of plan–beach behind the hospital–we just might go for a quick dip before the movies.
