This Perfectly Imperfect Life

just a neat pic i didn't think would come out!! 5/18/06 lighthouse ~ on our anniversary down in cape may, 5/25/06 a beautiful sky at the end of memorial day, from home, 2006. boardwalk/beach ~ i took these from the hotel we had bfast in down in atlantic city, 03/06.

i've fallen in love with summer ~ well, sort of! to say that is a tad hypocritical since i also hate it with equal passion! i love: my gardens filling in & bursting with colors ~ wearing less layers ~ longer days ~ bbq's (at home & elsewhere!) & fairs ~ steamy nights with their hazy sunsets, the quiet (no one out & about on the streets or in the stores!) & the warmth is almost comforting when you walk out into it; it wraps around you, makes you sigh & relax ~ the trees are full ~ passing by everyone's gardens & seeing all the bright orange lily's popping out against their green foliage... strange how one moment the heat's giving you chills & the next it's knocking the wind right out of you! yet i hate summer too! overwhelming heat & humidity ~ cars without ac ~ when the ac breaks down in the house on the hottest of days ~ how everything inside gets sticky when the ac's on too long or the humidity is too high ~ the bugs...

last but not least, as of 6/15/06!

as of 6/15/06 cont'd!
