"I simply can't resist a cat, particularly a purring one." Mark Twain.
It doesn't feel much like summer. It's not that it's raining. Summer is our wet season so some rain is to be expected. It's not that it's overcast & gloomy. That's what you'd expect with rain in the offering. No, it's the fact that while it's not exactly cold it is not exactly warm either. More coolish ~ & that is just wrong for this time of the year. We should be sweltering with humidity at 80% +, temps constantly in the high eighties, an oppressive heat pressure cooking the bay.
I know it's summer because the poinciana is poincianaering.
The Illawara Flame Tree is flaming.
The cat is flat out for Australia. He thought Ditz's guitar case was his brand new bed bought just for him.
When I disabused him of that notion he commandeered the poof Liddy bought me for Christmas. He's sooo cute ~ but that little twitch of the tail says the poof's all his ~ & he's
not sharing!

It has been dipping in the teens here. Brrrr!
What? You don't for one second mean to admit that our Victorian weather is better than your Queensland climate now do you?!!
Off to the beach today!!
Hee Hee
NSW climate beats both Qld and Vic. After 2 lovely temperate days, it was sweltering at 8.30 this morning. At least the sun and brilliant blue sky are back - but my, did the lawn grow over Christmas!
Seeking: all yours, m'dear,
jeanne: Um, no. I was rejoicing that it wasn't stinking hot. As for the beach...why? The water is wet, the sun is hot & the sand is itchy. ☺ I'd rather stay home where the coffee, the chocolate & the books are. heehee.
Siano: As a Sydney girl I so appreciate what you are saying. ☺
the temps are up and down all over the place here too!

Hi Ganeida,
It's beginning to feel a LOT like summer down here, but that's great, as it means swimming and that our friend, Gwenda will soon be here for a week's holidays. :D
Have a great week,
Blessings,
Jillian
Hojos: Og good! It's not just us being erratic.
Jillian: We've had some scorchers ~ just not consistently. Can't count on anything.
Every time I see pictures of your surroundings, I want to move. Got room for a family to camp out under those beautiful growing things? :-P
HELLO CAT. *snuzzle*
