It was another beautiful warm day, hot almost. It got up to 75 degrees again today, partly sunny with a little breeze. I spent quite a bit of it at my desk working edits into a manuscript and finding places to insert new scenes. It's very satisfying when ideas occur.
The day started with a little thunderstorm without lightning but with about 15 minutes of nice rain. I liked the line of drops on the edge of the platform feeder.
All of the bulbs are showing off. The daffodils are a-bloom with three different styles of blossoms. This one is the only one that cooperated by facing the camera. The others drooped and averted their faces and I was not about to prostrate myself in the damp grass to get a head-on shot.
I think this clump of hyacinths looks like a bouquet. It smells good too.
Yesterday I noticed that there are leaves emerging on the honeysuckle...
... and the rhubarb is up. Maybe this year I'll actually bake a pie with it.
Today's toss was a fleece jacket that is waaaay too big. I don't know why I thought it'd still fit but I slipped it on and, nope, doesn't fit. Not even close.
The prompt today asked about emotions on a summer day. Oh, pleasure in the warmth, happy in the sunshine, fragrance of flowers. The usual. Ho-hum.
My laptop was acting up when I was writing this afternoon so I went to Office Max for ink and to look at new laptops. I lucked out and the guy who offered to help me find ink (which I already had in my hands) turned out to be the tech guy. He said that I should bring my laptop in and he'd give it a look see and tell me whether I need a new one or just service. I'll do that tomorrow. I'm so glad that I've had both vaccine shots so my mask and I can confidently go to the store and get this taken care of. I'd freak out if my computer crashed. How would I blog?

Don't even think about your computer crashing. I'd freak out too! That spring bouquet of hyacinths and daffodils is so pretty. Even the rhubarb peeking out through the mulch looks pretty. I see a pie in your future.
