A burning 🥵 Summer!

Hello Friends!

I still have some problems with blogger! But this morning I was able to write!

The pictures below are from the small village I go to have my pedicure done. As I was early, I sat on the bench near the pound in the shade.

This weekend we went out on Saturday morning to do some shopping and stayed home on Sunday as the temperature was continuously rising!

Today the second or third heat wave is starting… again and again! It is very tiring and critical for the plants and animals.

This week it will rising up to 35 C again and  no rain.

Tomorrow morning early I have an appointment for a morning relaxation only to look after myself!

Massage… after all the health problems I went through these days I need a break.

We still are thinking about our September holidays?? We want to go up north! Iceland 🇮🇸 Norway 🇳🇴 Sweden 🇸🇪??? We have to decide!

We did not have taken our June break because of our dog big health problems and couldn’t leave him at the kennel. But in September it will be ok.

On Saturday Mr L bought me some perfume for the Summer! I like Escada yearly perfume it’s a very nice fragrance of different fruits for Summer.

I don’t have much pictures from outside as it begins to be all burnt by the heat.

Unfortunately I go out only in the mornings it is even too hot to do barbecues.

On Saturday we also had time to get clothes for our grandchildren the sales have began here, so they won’t have too much luggage when travelling.

I wish you a good week and I hope blogger will still work!

 

Jardin Agapanthes

• 
  

Hello friends!

today I have problems to use blogger! Don’t know if you also have problems?

As I don’t go out much ( in fact I write from the doctors waiting room of the clinic in Rouen)

We usually go and visit this garden each year “ le jardin des Agapanthes” this is a beautiful garden in the countryside with Hydrangeas, Agapanthes and beautiful landscaping.

A mix of trees, flowers and water.

I hope you enjoyed the visit!Hope blogger will be fixed soon 

A short message.

Dear Friends

I am not on my blog for the moment due to a second health problem. I had to go to the clinic and I feel exhausted for the moment.

As you may know we had a terrible heat wave. At the moment we are having a few days fresh air and in two days we are back to heat!

Our downstairs AC is finally installed just on time before the new heat wave. I am not doing much at the moment but rest. 

As you can see on the picture the trees are suffering a lot and loose their leaves. The birds are asking for water a lot and stay hidden under the leaves or in the hedges when it’s too hot and are very quiet.

I hope to be back as soon as possible. I am resting a lot before our son’s family arrive from Dubaï pretty soon now, with two toddlers we will be very busy!

See you soon my friends, enjoy and take care!

 

Hot!🔥 🥵 hot!

🔥 Hello Friends!

Today France will be the hottest place on earth!🌍 

I am having health problems at the moment and I must rest.  

I am staying inside with the AC. Yesterday the temperature felt was 47 degrees C 116,6 F in Normandy! And most places have no AC ! It may come down at the end of week. It may last for a number of of months with temperatures coming up and down!

I ‘ll be back as soon as I feel better 😘 

À big, long heat wave!

 Hello Friends,

Here in France we are having a heat dome. Thunderstorms and hail. The temperature is rising and more than 40 degrees in some places. Schools are closed and some trains cancelled.😞 it is very a very serious moment.

Hope everything goes well. Damages have already occurred around us so I will be back in a few days . We will eat ice creams to get a little freshness!

It will be a long period of heat!

See you soon.

A visit to Giverny and a painting.

Hello Friends.

Today it is very, very hot here!

I am going to stay inside. ( blogger is a bit difficult to use these days have you noticed?)

 

Well, today I was remembering visiting an exhibition in the American museum at Giverny about motherhood.

I love this painting by an American woman “Mary Louise Fairchild” from Connecticut . I love everything, the lilies in back ground and the freshness of the scene with the mother and child. I fell in love with this painting and I wanted to share it with you today.

Isn’t it beautiful?
 

Do you remember this view?

Thit was in Spring.

Hope you had a nice visit!

Some things I like.

Hello Friends,

Today, it will be hot and thunder will arrive.

I went out early to take pictures of our hydrangeas 

Lilies are starting to to bloom

This hydrangea was a present from a Vietnamese friend 

Who has left this world so each year it’s a reminder of her for me. We did drawing classes together.

The flax field is not blooming yet

I am waiting for the blue field!

Something I like ❤️  pansies ear rings ( les nereides)

Will stay inside away from the heat!

Have a good day!
