Damp


 My 6.30 am coffee needs buying from the McDonald’s drive through.
I’m leaving for work shortly
It’s a grey, wet and depressing early morning and even the cheerful plants on the kitchen window sill are looking down.
Flaming June soon

  1. He looks like he's come out of the shower and not found his comb! All the UK blogs are complaining about the weather! Look on the bright side - the vaccines are being administered, and Lockdown is easing.

  4. I find I have to work hard to be positive on a dull damp day. It's especially the lack of light which can feel a bit grim.

    "needs buying".... you are getting more American by the day. A comment, not a criticism. It will help you find a US publisher, perhaps, or help you to have gotten one, ha ha, but not a UK one as they would say the coffee does not actually need anything, but rather than it is you who needs to buy the coffee.

  10. Just been out to inspect the veg plot - damp and dismal indeed, with another bad day forecast for tomorrow then some sunny days to follow. Here's hoping! Are you still out and about with work, or nicely sheltered indoors?

  13. I am no gardener, but it looks as though you have over-watered that plant - unless you have holes in your roof.

  15. The sun has finally come out here in sunny Southport and I've even got washing on the line. That's tempting fate! Hope you have a good shift and the sun is out on your next day off. xx

    Ah, John, how can you not smile at that plant pot face even on a gloomy morning?
    About the damp, as long as it's not rising ... :)
    Please send rain to Chesterfield, Virginia, USA! Ta.
    Wishing you a good day at work and a delightful drive home.
    Hugs!

  22. My plants are in a funk too. Not because of rain. No, just the opposite, heat and no rain for days. Everything is dust.
