      At this point, I’m nearly 100% confident we’re quickly approaching summer now. Nearly 90ºF today. Sigh.

          Best ‘herbicide’ ever! And the lupines always have aphids. That ladybug has to be in hog heaven.

      Thank you. That red is what caught my eye. Then I took in the whole view with the stalk and walked back to photograph it in our garden. Norman and Elsa were a bit cheesed since they thought “hurrah, we’re finally off.” We (meaning me) were a bit waylaid that morning. 😉

  13. BellaDharma an BellaSita Mum – On Georgian Bay..... – Welcome to THE Purrfect Pad. My name is Sherri-Ellen & my current Kitty Girl is BellaDharma a black part Siamese cat. I started blogging in August 2005 on Yahoo 360 with Mingflower my Bluepoint Siamese. Then transferred to Multiply...Mingflower went to Summerland & NYLABLUE my BluePoint Siamese/Burmese cross took over. When Multiply was closing a handful of our blogging friends recommended WordPress & we found a home here & made many new friends. Everyone followed the antics & struggles of NYLABLUE until her passing Nov. 22nd, 2014 to Summerland. A week later a little bouncing Burmese boy I met at a local adoption event joined me here! Dec. 9th, 2014. Purrince Siddhartha Henry came to live with me & regaled us with his journey towards 'Enlightenment'. He was a Burmese Buddhist with many health issues but he searched for meaning in his Life. After his lifelong struggle with Panleukopenia. Siddhartha Henry lost his battle & left for Pure Land August 28th, 2018. He was only 4 years & 1 month old. I've never totally gotten over the loss of my "Little Man". And this is where I get VERY serious. This Purrfect Pad blog is not all sunshine & roses. This blog is about REAL life with special needs cats who come into my life. We share our time together & we share the good, the bad & the ugly. This is a REAL blog. Yes we DO laugh & have fun & take Selfies! And we share each cat's struggles whether health issues or behavioural problems. And we share about my ongoing battle with 3 health conditions that can render me unable to walk plus having Cirrhosis of Liver & Seizures. We ask our friends & followers to respect that THE Purrfect Pad is anything but 'purrfect'. I am disabled & each of my cats' have had special needs. Everyone is welcome here as long as you are kind & respectful. If you have questions feel free to ask them. Sept. 6th, 2018 BellaDharma aka Baby Girl joined THE Purrfect Pad. We hope all of you will follow our life together as BellaDharma learns how to be a domesticated cat instead of a semi-feral one.... Love, Peace & Treets, Sherri-Ellen (BellaSita Mum) & BellaDharma & 'angels' Purrince Siddhartha Henry; Nylablue 'Sweet Feet' & Mingflower the Merciless & all my other cats who have shared my life with me. You are all loved & remembered...

      I love watching them devour aphids – they’re the best ‘herbicide’ around.

    I don’t get this weather at all. This past weekend was hot and humid, around 90 degrees in Annapolis, MD, and today, Wednesday, I woke up to a temperature of 56 degrees. Oh well!

      I think that will be the norm in the future. We’ll all have to be prepared to ride the weather roller coaster. Personally, I prefer the lower end on the temperate scale but can’t remember receiving snow so late in May.

        Omg! And I already put all my sweaters, jackets, boots away! I enjoy the weather between 50 to 80 degrees. No humidity please, but living in Maryland humidity is one thing for sure you will encounter as temperatures go up.

          Yeah my sis lives in Frederick; I’ve heard about the humidity. Springtime in Colorado is always a crap shoot but it seems it’s getting more severe and extreme all the time.

            From personal experience, I believe that the best weather for Summer you’ll find it in Massachusetts. I lived in MA for 5 years and the one thing I miss the most are the gorgeous Summers. The only down fall is that the Summers tend to be shorter than in Maryland.

          Here in Colorado, it’s a dry heat since humidity is a rarity. Usually hovers in upper single digits or very low teens. When it gets hot, it’s like a pizza oven, but not a sauna. 🙂

      Thanks. I love ladybugs and they love the lupine which always seem to have more than a few aphids. Insert crawling skin emoji here. 😄
