First Tomato's of the Season and a Beautiful Butterfly
I picked my first ripe tomato's one that came from one plan and the other from my cherry tomato plant. There is nothing better than the taste of fresh tomatoes! This is what I had for dinner last night - all of the tomatoes, the cucumbers are fresh but not from my garden and then I had some chicken potato stuff. It was all very good. I just wish I was up to the presentations that some of you do. I guess I tend to throw it on a plate and eat it!! :)
These three photos are of a butterfly that was outside the Church when I came back to work the other day. I've never seen this butterfly in Indiana before. Isn't it beautiful? Did I blog about this before? I'm on medication from my sinus surgery and maybe I shouldn't be blogging at all. I'm doing okay though I had a bad morning with a terrible headache until I got a pain pill to working. I hope to go to work tomorrow at least for part of the day. Okay - everyone have a great day/evening!

View Out My Office Window
This is the view out of my work office window and do you see my new friend? Is he/she ever cute. Well I wanted a closer photo so I went out and as you can see at the top of the blog; I got pretty close. There is also a baby rabbit running around but I've always been on my way to another part of the Church or to a meeting so I haven't been able to grab a camera. I was able to take a photo of a butterfly that I've never seen in the Midwest before. In fact it let me pet it with my finger. I left my camera at work but I'll post that soon. I'd love to know what kind it is. Tomorrow I have some sinus surgery but I should be back on by Saturday I hope!

Evening Storms and Sky Photos
We've been having a storm come through every evening. Lots of thunder and lightning (Monday night on the TV weather during the storm there was over 7,000 lightning strikes in 3 counties and my county was one of them). Last night the sirens went off because just SE of the city I live in there was golf ball size hail and very unstable weather. I have a basement but I don't run down there as I like to watch how the weather is developing.
Last night I went out on the side porch and the above photos are of the sky to the west. This sky was beautiful but not what we normally see. I like those pink sunsets that mean it will be a nice day tomorrow! But I am glad that I took these photos since these colors were great and the storm was moving away.
It's 6:30am here and quiet this morning. I can see the birds starting to play outside the window that my laptop faces. I hope it will be a nice day but I wish the humidity would go away! I want to do some more redoing projects and I don't think the paint will dry. Maybe soon!
Have a Great day or evening!!

A Package by Royal Mail
Okay this is upside down but bear with me! :)
I received a package with the Royal Mail tag
If you start from the bottom and come up you can see the envelope and the little pieces tied together.
I LOVE little pieces of cloth and especially when they were someone elses as I've never seen them before.
Look at those little cars and the flower!
Are these pretty or what?
I love them all!!
This one could be more than one!
Look at these buses! Where would I find them here!!
Look at the wellies and the animals all dressed up!
Cute!!
Hippos and Lady Bugs!
The package!
The Royal Sticker!!This came from my friend Jo http://www.bellsjo.blogspot.com/ and please check out her blog. It's amazing all of the things she makes and her Flicker photos are wonderful!! I thank you soooo much and this is such a sweet thing to do!
Saturday's Garage Sale and Farmers Market
This I found out at the thrift store and it's in wonderful shape and the embrodiery is on both ends.
I found two of these at the thrift store and I'm painting them for my granddaughters and we can hang them on the wall, Will show this when I have them painted. Sorry about this mess but someday I'll clean up this area.
This I found on clearance at Hobby Lobby and I love black and white polka dots!! I love polka dots.
This I found at the farmers market! this is a cup, saucer and spoon glues together and then attached to a plumbing pipe. I don't usually go in for this kind of stuff but I'm starting to so I wonder if I'm getting old?
This is a shoe that I never wore but I picked them up at a garage sale and thought I'd make a little planter. Well this is all I have for today. I purchased other items this week-end but haven't taken photos yet. It's either so humid you can't go out or storming! We have some kind of storm or rain every day. But it is so green and lush that it's worth it.
Have a great day or evening!
