What I'm Reading This Week #25

Hello and happy Friday from the land of the scorching sun.  We are in for absolute Hades conditions the next few days, right on cue for the summer solstice.  You know I'm not happy about that. 😒 Thankfully, my other 50% shade cloth just arrived and is airing out so they can go on in the afternoons.  I have stuff in the big planters that are not fans of scorching heat so I need to be as on it as possible if I don't want it to go to poop for other reasons to add to the current reasons.  (Rain, pests, etc) I'm tryin' y'all!  I just got my little lint rollers to roll aphids/larvae off instead of wasting shipping tape.  I swear to you I have not seen ONE BEE since everything went in.  There was this chubby bumble bee that would hang out when our lilac was in bloom and just zone out levitating so I thought for sure she would be here for it all.  Nope.  The second it bloomed, it was gone.  I haven't seen honeybees at all.  I've checked ...

Sharing YOUR trees!

The holidays are in full swing and it's time to share your trees and holiday decor!

Diane was the first to send me her tree...isn't it beautiful!?  I love white trees, the ornaments really pop on them and they just somehow seem more wintry to me.   I also love how the stockings are hung all ready to be filled!  I'd be tempted to keep it up and put red ornaments on it for Valentine's Day!  :-)  Thanks for sharing Diane!


Pam sent in all four of her trees.  Her love of cardinal ornaments couldn't be contained on just one tree and not wanting to keep them caged during the Christmas season, she just bought another tree!  A lady after my own heart!   These trees represent 46 years of collecting these ornaments during her marriage!  Thanks for sharing your trees and sleepy pup, Pam!


Christine sent in her gorgeous tree decked out in teal and silver with beautiful white lights.  I love the little snow couple in front and the decorations on the window framing everything out.  I've noticed this color combo is very popular this year and if she's had it for a few years then she's obviously a trendsetter!  Thanks for sharing Christine!



Dawn sent in pics of her beautiful tree all lit with multi-color lights and the perfect angel on top.  It looks like she got a beautiful layer of snow as well...what a perfect winter scene!  Bagel the pup is stylin' in that sweater and I'm betting not too anxious to get the paws in that snow!  Thanks for sharing, Dawn!



Donna says she and her hubby are self professed "Christmas lunatics" and they decorate with gusto! Their beautiful tree is all ready for a visit from Santa but first he's going to have to move Mr and Mrs Snowman from the front of the fireplace to drop them off!  I love the wintry mantel scene and all of the family pics on the hearth!  I can't quite tell but I think the stocking on the far right are butt flap pajamas and if that's the case, she's got 'splaining to do on that one!  Thanks for sharing Donna!



I'm so happy to have gotten these submissions to share.  I love seeing the way others decorate and the things that make their heart smile this time of year!  If you didn't get your tree submitted in time and usually put it up later in the month and want it included for next year, feel free to message me a current pic if you don't think it'll change much and I can include it in next year's post!  :-)

Hope you all have a wonderful holiday!
