Hello Everyone...
Mid August already...but I'm back!!!
It has been another stinkin' hot month here in Ontario...
Seems that this will be the way it is for a few years...
Grin and bear it, I say...but it has not been the best gardening Summer, for sure!!!
On another note...my trusty Canon camera, has seen better days...:o(
The last few weeks, the pictures have been out of focus, and very dark...
I took to using my older camera...the one Miss V uses when she chooses!
I was not very happy with the last few photos, especially when both my granddaughters were visiting at the cottage...
My son tried to change a few settings...but I think the old girl just had enough...
So I got myself a new camera!!!!!!!!
yes indeedy!!! Canon Powershot SX420SI....almost the same as my old one...with a few less bells and whistles...but my trusty auto-zoom is included!!!
So.....hopefully my next post will have clearer crisper brighter photos...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hope you are all well...
Enjoying the heat????
We are off to the cottage Friday am...raining here today and down there...and i think rain tomorrow too....
My sweet friend Devon...who moved to BC a few years ago, is in town for a wedding, and her and her lovely hubby are coming to the cottage on Saturday for a sleepover!!!! So excited to see her....I have missed her dearly...
I got a cat mat made for her cats...and 2 of my dishcloths ready for her...
Have a great weekend my friends...
See you soon...
Cheers! :o)

Can you believe that August is already upon us????
Time sure flies when you are old!!! Hahaha!!!
We have been having a VERY hot Summer here in Southern Ontario...
Temps in the 30c range...with humidity into the low 40's!!!
I think that translates into the low 100's F...
And where I live and cottage...not a lot of rain at all...
I know that Ottawa and Quebec have received record rainfall the last week or so...
My gardens are really suffering here...
Supposed to get thunderstorm last night....nothing!!!
Lots of cloudy days too...with thick black swirling clouds...and then nothing...
Oh well...I guess Mother Nature is mad at us...and trying to make us pay more attention to the climate changes that are inevitable....

On a happier note...
Our sweet Miss V celebrated her 6th Birthday in July 🎈🎉🎈
She is crazy about UNICORNS...so I went with that theme for her gifts...
Unicorn lunch bag...Unicorn sweatshirt...Unicorn Beanie Boo...
And I even found a sweet Unicorn paper weight while thrifting!!!
What are the odds,eh???
And I kept my fingers busy for a few weeks, making her a cross stitch of a Unicorn...
I thought this pattern was different...so cute...and SOOO Miss V!!
Love the bikini and her belly button!!💕 👙💕
I am quite liking the cross stitching...have a few more patterns picked out for Christmas gifts...and I am working on some crochet as well. Never too early to start eh??
Anyway....she loved her gifts...Her Mom threw a party at the theatre and all of her friends watched Incredibles 2...I remember the first one...my kids loved it! So funny and creative....
Miss N made it to the party, and delighted everyone with her smiles ❤️
Hope you are all well....And enjoying your Summer...
Gosh....AUGUST already....still trying to get my head around that!!!
Long weekend here in Canada...
Hoping to see my kids down at the Cottage on Saturday...
We are off Thursday am...
Another scorcher weekend predicted...
We will see how long we last......
See you soon...
Cheers! :o)
