After seeing Anna's pics of Venice and the washing hanging out to dry, I remembered some of my photos...the bottom shot is Venice itself, the top one one of the islands on the lagoon. Looking at these pictures I can remember the wonderful sunshine and the warmth. Yesterday it rained almost the whole day. J and I went for a long walk...it rained. I did housework...it rained. I went out for another walk...it rained some more. It has been varied though....between heavy rain and really heavy rain. I am getting seriously anxious that I won't be able to cut my lawn before we go away!

At least today it's been sunny. P is off in Wales taking photos with his friend and I took the girls shopping this morning along with the usual chores. Now it's off to riding with S. Hope everyone is having a great Saturday.

Two more images from our trip to Ness..

I wish it would stop raining. The garden is looking good but it's too wet to go outside and enjoy it.
I went on my evening walk tonight and got totally soaked! It was funny in a way to be out walking with the rain trickling down my face and neck! Well, at first until I got CHILLY.

I'm glad the week is over. I got quite a lot done. In a way it's easier when it's just me in charge. Guess what...I sort of like it. But don't tell anyone. I now have four weeks to go until our holiday and I have a ton of stuff to do.

Tomorrow we are going to start painting K's bedroom. I'm looking forward to some time pottering around the house as next week promises to be lots busier...
