| A camera, the great outdoors and the most amazing man in the world. What more do I need? |
But yesterday, the most amazing man in the world and I ran away from home, and spent the day outdoors. It was a gorgeous afternoon, and because we’ve had quite a bit of rain, and our weather is not too warm, everything is so wonderfully green and colourful. And there are lilac flowers everywhere. Here is a capture from yesterday’s outing:
Aren’t lilacs the loveliest and most wonderfully fragrant flowers? Most definitely.
This week is dedicated to the garden. I’ll be spending most of my time outdoors digging in the dirt, and enjoying the sights, sounds and smells of Mother Nature, and the endearing antics of all my backyard critters. Speaking of which, baby Calvin flew the coop on Friday. I didn’t see it happen (darn it!), but I’ll be keeping a lookout for him to grab a photo. I can hear him chirping, so he's somewhere nearby.
Right now, let’s laugh out loud...
I wish you all a beautiful week!
It ia as usual work in weekends. Cleaning and laundry. Laughed seeing all your comic characters. It will be enjoyable when we go out of the house. I use to enjoy traveling!
ReplyDeleteTraveling is the best! I could spend my life doing that. But, of course, I can't, so I enjoy whatever I can enjoy. Even if it's just a day out.
DeleteRelax - they're just wheezing LMAO !!!
ReplyDeleteWe have a slew of lilacs in the back yard - huge bonus with buying this place :)
Have a great week Martha!
XOX
I bet it smells wonderful with all those lilacs, Suzan. It's such a heavenly scent.
DeleteSounds like you had an amazing day. Looks so beautiful outside there. And I agree about lilacs being the most fragrant flowers. They really do personify spring in many ways. I hope you have a good week gardening :)
ReplyDeleteIt was a great day. I love being outdoors, particularly if there is a body of water nearby. It is my favourite place to be!
DeleteOillelujah! That one made my day, LOL!
ReplyDeleteI know! Corny but funny!
DeleteI can just image you happy as a clam out in the yard digging and planting and being outside! enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteI love being out there. There is a lot of work involved, but because it's so enjoyable, that work is welcome!
DeleteWhat is this strange word "relax"? I find that so hard to do on weekend. Too many chores.
ReplyDeleteWell, I hope you squeeze in some time to relax! We all need to recharge our batteries.
DeleteFUNNY!! Amaazing Grease....!!! And Viral Home videos!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed, Jim! We all need some humour to keep us healthy and happy.
DeleteLOL on Amaazing Grease and Oilleluia, maybe you've sniffed a little to much paint, lol you look wonderful by the way....you deserve a rest, and you make us laugh out louD, you are amazing, you deserve the wonderful man in the world, love lilacs too
ReplyDeleteOh yes, Lorraine, I sniffed my fair share of paint! LOL... This week I'll sniff my fair share of garden scents, which is much nicer!
DeleteGreat collection of comics!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed!
DeleteGorgeous shot of the lilacs and of you too, Martha.
ReplyDeleteYou got it made with your our camera, the great outdoors and that man of yours!
Loved all the funnies .... thanks for the laughs ;o)
Thanks, Margie. I don't need all that much to be content. And being outdoors always makes me happy.
DeleteFine portrait of you working with your camera. And, thank you once again for a Monday morning laugh. Hope your weekend was restful.
ReplyDeleteIt was a very relaxing weekend. This week is busy again, but a good busy - garden time!
DeleteI had a very stressful week, and weekend no better, so this was just the post I needed, Martha (plus, now I am humming the Spiderman theme... win/win) :)
ReplyDeleteI hope this week is better for you, Monique! And I'm glad the humour did you some good!
Deletehahahahah. Where ever do you get these cartoons!! I loved the apple and the wrench ones the best! hahahah. Glad you took a wee break from painting - it was a beautiful day!
ReplyDeleteI won't be getting back to painting for awhile - unless the weather is really bad. There is a lot of work to be done outdoors, and I'd rather be doing that!
DeleteFun post Martha. And happy Monday. It's a very happy Monday here at The Manor. Just finished rolling touches on the Lemon Tart. Garden time soon for me as well.
ReplyDeleteHot dog!
It's nice to get outside and do garden work. I'm really happy with all the progress I did on the painting, but now it's time to visit with Mother Nature. The work outside is quite tiring, but I don't mind because I love doing it!
DeleteYou are having a great time in spite of the painting. You have the same color of lilac I have. I've never seen another one like it.
ReplyDeleteThose lilacs are everywhere around here. They are quite beautiful, and they smell wonderful.
DeleteYes, I recently decided lilacs have my favorite fragrance, along with lavender.
ReplyDeleteI chuckled and chortled a lot, especially at the apples.
Glad you chuckled and chortles, Robyn! I gotta keep you bloggers happy :)

You're a young chickie inside, Carolyn; no doubt about that! You've got more spirit in you than most people I know.
DeleteYou know, I really don't need much. I like the simple things in life, and I believe that this is the main reason I'm typically happy and upbeat.
