What a difference the sun makes !!
The sun is out this morning, the springs flowers are blooming and all's well with the world ! What a difference it makes ! We've had a remarkably dreary winter here in NZ, so this is very welcome ! DH is even out there mowing the lawns ! I have a bunch of daffodils smiling at me and the washing is blowing on the line. I am a happy chappy...We have just had three days away (which also has contributed to my sense of well being !) We went to Hanmer, a small settlement in the mountains, known for the hot thermal pools. We figured that even if the weather was miserable , we could soak in the pools and be warm ! We went with friends and, as good fortune would have it, the weather was great. The two men went off and enjoyed a game of golf and the ladies enjoyed a soak and a leisurely walk around the few touristy shops there. Altogether, a very relaxing time. The pools are in the open air so it was rather special to sit there, up to the neck in hot water, and gaze at the surrounding snow-capped mountains...
All is well on the home front. The DD's are busy with their lives and their children, and my sister in U.K., rang this morning , for a "catch up". My DBIL is approaching his 80th bday but that doesn't seem to have slowed them down any . They have had a summer travelling through England visiting, school friends, university friends, work friends and family. She did sound tired but what a great summer they have had.
Must go now and walk around the garden to see what else is emerging from the soggy soil..
Enjoy the day.

Marion- The sunshine is one on the main reasons that I live in Florida. It does make a big difference doesn't it?
