This mid November weather has me thinking spring without witnessing winter! lol
As much as one moment - I am bouncing around the backyard, chatting with the birds (those who are still here- thankfully, the grackles have gone) looking at the green leaves still on the oak tree, the green grass... yesterday, I pulled up a chair and sat in the sunshine for a couple of hours! Then, I realize it is Mid November and never in my life before can I remember weather like this.
'Hello Global warming... your warm face glowing has me confused for a few moments.
Come on... do you think Global Warming is not a reality? Eh?
I find myself like many Canadians feeling guilty - Sure, I've always admired the southern states- warm all year.. sunshine, cactus and swimming - unlike COLD, icicles & skating, but I find I go from feeling elated to defeated in moments. The world is melting.
So, rather than beat myself up - I'm having hard time controlling this climate change on my own... I will enjoy the sunshine, lovely weather and turn all my lights off!
I'll use less water & try to make less garbage... I'll do what I can.
It's all I can do.
More than many still, who do not even acknowledge a problem. WTF Eh?
Enjoy the weather Canada.. I know I'm not alone as I reach for my sketchbook to go out and draw a few remaining plants - the good news:
Friday it's going to be 15!! Saturday 14...I will be out there you can bet- Sunday 4, Monday 2 and I'll be inside snuggling with Poppy - Canadian weather creeps in as you find me dreaming of cactus & swimming for a few months more.
Have faith

Kids and pills tomorrow.. and cannabis of course.
