Winter in Florida … yummmm!
I received a call from a delightful lady who lives in Indiana yesterday afternoon. While we were talking her husband asked what the temperature was. Initially I said that, although I didn’t know the temperature, it was quite comfortable. Then I started laughing when I realized I was outside talking on my portable phone!
We were sitting in the shade (in T-shirts) in our yard here in Sanford repotting my plants. (Yes, I told each of them how absolutely beautiful they will be this spring!) My husband cringed each time I cut off their lovely blossoms. I acted as though it didn’t bother me to give them a “crew cut”, but I could relate to his discomfort. (That’s probably why I allowed them to get so “leggy” in the first place.) It was a positively glorious January day here in Florida!
In addition to our neighbor Neill (one of the best neighbors on earth) we also had some “company”. Our friend Steve who owns Holt’s Mobile Service was here to work on our truck brakes and keep us all safer on the roadway. By the way, if you ever need someone who is knowledgeable, thorough, and honest to work on your vehicle, consider giving Steve a call. He’s been in the biz in the Lake Mary, Florida area for decades (his website is: www.holtsmobileauto.com/) It was a productive, social, and very, very enjoyable afternoon which continued until after nightfall.
Much of the country has been buffeted by snow and ice storms for weeks and I feel badly for what they’ve had to deal with, but, I gotta tell you, I’m sitting here in Florida in January and it’s is heaven! I looooove living in the Sunshine State!
The weatherman says there is a slight cold front moving in. He’s projecting rain tomorrow and temperture highs in the high 70’s with low’s in the mid to high 40’s so it’ll be a bit cooler, but not too severe.
…gotta go feed and water all those plants today while it’s still nice outside!
