2. DH was sent to England to work for a month when oldest DD was 6 weeks old. I wasn’t working and felt terrible about him missing those early weeks so decided we would go along. He worked almost every day and very long hours. For the first few days I just stayed in the hotel room, but at some point decided to venture out. The hotel was in a fairly rural area and I had to take a bus into town where I could catch other buses to go places. I was a nervous wreck, but quickly realized she loved being in the carrier I wore and was less fussy when we were out and about. I explored little towns, toured a castle and the grounds and some days just walked around a mall in the town. She was fine, I was fine and everything worked out. DH had 1 1/2 days off at the end and we took a train to London and did a few touristy things and then had another 1/2 day that we toured a castle in another area.

Ooh, whereabouts, over here, were you?

Cherry season

That reminds me... pea season! Fresh, raw peas straight from the pod.

June

Father's Day especially God, my Heavenly Father along with the precious blessing extra from Him to me of my dad here on earth and that he and I are both in health, safety, and together as we continue to travel through life together day of by day.

Memories of my beloved grandfather long now an Angel of God with my grandmother. His birthday was on June 7th. A church pastor and friend's birthday will be on June 8th.

Wamer weather to come

God willing come the end of July, my friend Sue from church will be celebrating her 100th birthday! Dad and I probably won't feel comfortable attending her huge party at church a few days before her actual birthday. However, on her special day we will be delivering a and (one of her very favorite treats) to her.

Rochester is the town that I took a bus to and would venture out from there. I believe it was southeast of London. Are you familiar with it? I think my husband was working on an upgrade to a power plant somewhere in that general area. I loved my time there. The people were wonderful to a new mom in an unfamiliar place in the world who was trying to figure out a lot of new things all at once. The infant I was schlepping around will be 23 in a few weeks so it’s been a while.

Allergy season is over.

I wish it was here !!

Extra to anyone with allergies seasonal or otherwise. Dad and I are blessed to have neither. I definitely have known people including kids from my teaching days and working at church camps who have, not fun at all.

June things

It's all green out, but not so overgrown, like at the end of summer.

Planning and anticipation of summer outings.

It's strawberry season!!!!

Allergy season is over.

I am still struggling a bit. Wore my contacts two days in a row this week for the first time in weeks. I wore them about 2 hours today and had to remove them. I usually start tapering off the Zyrtec mid June so should be getting close to the end now. Even the pataday eye drops with the Zyrtec isn’t enough this year.

Yes, Rochester is southeast of London in the county of Kent. I spent some time in Canterbury, Kent, but have never been to Rochester. Lots of history there, though - castle, cathedral etc.

I'm so glad you had such a positive experience over here and that people were so kind to you.

I've never seen fireflies in person, but they seem to represent a very idyllic kind of summer vibe.

Ooh, nice point about the green of early summer. It's like when you first put up Christmas decorations and everything is fresh and neat.

Hope you feel better soon, WDWEPCOT and mumto3girls.
