Home sweet home...and boy is it hot!

     Wowsa, did it get hot or what?  I'm not sure what the temp is in your neck of the woods, but in Texas it is altogether hot, hot, hot!  The last few days have been a whirlwind of emotions both incredibly happy and sad, and it feels amazing to be home.  I have spent the last few days up in Indiana where it was also a whole lot of crazy hot with a side of humidity that makes it extra special.  Now that I'm back, all I really want to do is take a two day nap to get rid of the dark circles that have made a happy home under my eyes, but sadly there is no time for that.  My poor little lady planters are a disaster from neglect, and the daylilies are looking sad indeed, so this weekend it's back to the nursery to start from scratch.  But right now the only thing I really want to do is cool off with a dip, so the first thing I did when I got home was put on my bathing suit and head for the pool.

I'm bringin sexy back...

     Alright, alright that's not really me, but I swear I had to wear something dangerously close to this once in high school for a semester of swimming that quite possibly was made out of wool...it most certainly was not anything remotely like this...

Which is essentially what I wear to the grocery store, filling up my gas guzzling suv, or hanging out with Jay Z and Beyonce on my yacht...like here...Summer is just around the corner...

So when it's hot in Texas you need to be in one of these...

or if you are lucky enough to have a home on one of the many lakes around here...a dive off the pier might be in order...

At night there is nothing better than having dinner alfresco while the sun goes down...

Or you can stay inside, put the AC on low, low, low, snuggle in your vintage watching Real Housewives on Bravo...oh yes you can...
