It is Sunday. It is early. I woke to the song of the mockingbird that has taken up residence in the recently planted oak tree on the other side of the fence. He is definitely a song bird and he has quite a medley. What a great way to wake up. The day isn't fully awake yet and the garden is quiet -- except for -- what shall I name him? Bennett -- for Tony Bennett. Another great singer.
A wonderful day planned for us. Church first, then just a light lunch at home and then DD and her husband and our granddaughter -- Bean -- will be over to swim in the paddling pool. By that time, it will be hot outside and the cool water will feel good -- hope she doesn't mind sharing with my feet!
This evening will be filled with sewing and needlework -- getting a jump start on Christmas and I have a birthday gift to complete for the Sweet Bean who will be turning one soon.
All in all it looks like the day is shaping up nicely -- I wish the same for everyone here! Happy Sunday.

Hmmm, I really ought to be making a start on Christmas gifts, but there is so much to do outside right now....and I try to spend as much time as possible outside: summer is so short here.

Hi, Jane -- well, I decided that this upcoming Christmas was going to be a "homemade" Christmas -- not entirely, of course, but I thought it would be fun to do a little bit of needlework/quilting and such. I understand about wanting to be outdoors -- summer here is really long but it is also so hot that we don't get out as much as we do in the winter!
