Monday Rolling Around AGAIN!

I can't believe it's Monday again! I feel like time is just getting away from me. The weekend wasn't too bad - Saturday started off raining but that was it. Friday night we had storms. Half of our neighbourhood lost power (not us) when a tree fell on an ice cream van! There were a couple of people in the van - I hope they were okay! We did our walk on Sunday, a nice walk in the woods. There were still bees and butterflies around! Because of the warmer weather we're also getting stink bugs again (yuck) and this morning I see hoards of flying beetle-like things on the garage door (shudder). I'm hoping for a cold snap just to get rid of them! I don't want them in the house. I see one and then I can't stop thinking about it until someone gets rid of it.




From yesterday's walk.

Today when I went for a walk the moon was still high in the sky! I'd been hoping to practise night moon photography the last few nights but it's been too cloudy. It wasn't too cloudy this morning!


It's a gorgeous day today. Still a lot of green in the trees - the autumn colours are coming late this year.


You can barely see the moon up in the sky on the left, but it was large and bright considering it was ten in the morning!

Hope everyone has a good Monday!

  1. I've never heard of stink bugs... they don't sound good! Beautiful photo of the moon and I could just make it out in the landscape photo, amazing to see it like that at 10am xx

    1. They are brown bugs that give off a smell if you squish them. Apparently there are a lot around right now. They are looking for warmth from the winter. Shudder!

  3. Oh gawd....what is a stink bug.....sounds horrific.

    I am ready for a cold snap to kill off the flies. They are really dozy now and driving me mad.

    1. Horrible things. I hate them. They don't bite or anything. They smell if you squish them. They are probably about the size of a 20p coin maybe a little bigger.

  4. I am not good with insects either. Thankfully the midges are gone here for now anyway.
