Spring has arrived

Yip it's the 1st of September today so officially it's SPRING... just someone PLEASE tell that to the weatherman!!! It's cold and blowing up a storm today.... poor little guy went to school in civies today dressed as if it's WINTER... hehehe. What happened to that lovely spring weather we had last week?? Well I don't think we've EVER had a 1st of September where it's been HOT... so reckon this is just par for the course.


And then to prove even more so that Spring has arrived we got our first Clivia flowers in our garden this weekend. We've had this plant for over a year now and this is the first time EVER that it's had a flower... so here it is in all it's glory.



And just an update on the "sick patient" (as Aaron calls me!)... I'm still coughing and spluttering! Went back to the doc on Friday as I was no better and got yet more meds... have been inhaling Karvol all weekend but the cough still does not want to disappear. Am having yet another day at home! Next course of treatment is xrays to see why my sinus aren't clearing and then possibly scrapping my sinuses surgically.... no thanks I'd rather cough!!!

Well off to rest a bit more... cough, splutter and cough some more. Enjoy your spring day wherever you may be!

Ag shame Cathy - and this "lovely" Spring weather we're having is not helping aa bit to get you better now, is it?! I remember as a kid - Spring days at school were ALWAYS cold and windy! We all wore our most beautiful summer dresses but had to wear warm jerseys or jackets which spoiled the entire outfit! I think they must move Spring day to 1 October. Usually the weather is sorted by then. Hope you get better soon! :)

Love the clivea flowers. I see them flowering everywhere here in Gauteng at the moment. Even saw some yellow ones flowering in Bryanston yesterday. Hope you get better soon
