Awaiting a heatwave!!

Goodafternon everybody!

Sooooo late today. Seems to happen a lot lately LOL.
First little weather report. Last week it wasn;t too bad, although ...... no, not really good either. Temperatures stayed rather low for time of year and we even had a day or even 1 1/2 day with quite some rain. The garden loved it.
But..... weather is changing here again. Today already lovely weather with nice temperatures of around 22C our part. Graduately it will go up this week to really hot weather, expected temps around 30-36C! And that is really hot for our country! We will see how we survive that. It never can be more or less "normal"here. That is to say temperature around say 25-26C with a little breeze every now and then. And that for several weeks, and best with sometimes a little rainshower during the night.
No, we do in roller coaster-weather nowadays, or so it seems.
Okay, I am not complaining, I wanted some warmer weather and so we have it. Oh well, we have to pick the times to do the shopping and further on probably not moving around too much and some icecream at times can do wonders LOL.

Jan wasn;t feeling really great on Friday, he stayed in bed almost all day. Guess he catched a cold of some kind. Happy to say he is much better today , already yesterday he was feeling much better. So it was a one or two day story only.

I didn;t achieve a lot this week. I know I did several things, would have been mostly small jobs, not worth reminding. Perhaps useful, but not more either. Hahahaha. No, I am not loosing my mind, I just cannot remember anything really specific that is worthwile mentioning.
But somehow I had very busy days! How did i accomplish that???????No idea.
That sometimes happens, you know. You do all kind of things, all necessary, moost of the time, but at the end of the day or week, looking back, all vanished from the memory.

My friend Heidi went on holiday on Friday, they are in France now. They will stay there for about 3 weeks. This time they didn;t take theri doggy with them, because there are other dogs there who aren;t too nice for little doggies. So they left him behind and the parents in law are taking care of him. He will have a good time there, they will take good care of him.
When we still had our cats and we did go somewhere I always found it difficult to leave them behind. But we always had someone who took good care of them. Still I was glad to come home again and see them again.
We mostly left them in the house, so they felt safe and then someone stayed in our house or came once or twice a day to feed them etc.

I really should go this week on search for a new laptop. The one I am using now, is getting so very slow and I am afraid one of these days it will not even start up anymore.
I took a look in a store for computers and such this week(see, that i did too this week LOL) and saw a few very nice ones but I didn't like the prices. I think this time I will go another time for a good second-hand one. The one I am using now also was second and served me well during a few years. So then I will have to learn how to use Windows 10! Hmmmm, I will have some trouble I guess, but first I will have to get my usual programs on it(like Firefox, and the photo program I use with my camera, and of course PSE elements). Then I should consider what to use for virus program. I now have the free version of AVG, but lately it annoys me and I've read that for usual use Windwos Defender is doing not bad at all. Okay, payed ones do somewaht more, but I have to be careful with the finance, so as long as a free version is doing quite okay, I will use that.
Probably it will have to reconsider when I will install internet banking. (yeah, I am still very old fashioned, I don;t do that till now). But slowly you are almost forced into using that, and yes, it is easy and quick, I know.
First of all I will see if I can find another laptop, then Jan will need another one too. His laptop is somewhat quicker still than mine, but is copming to an end too soon I guess And also has Windows 7 and that will not be supported anymore next year. Oh my decisions, desicions.... hopeless! Wished I had someone who could install all nedded on the new laptop, get it all ready for use and safe and also some around every now and then to check on it. But that is just ishfull thinking, so I'll have to do it myself. I will get there, slowly, it always takes some time to get everything installed again.

Good, I think it about time to finish this post, it is already mid-afternoon9arund 15.14)so I would like to sit in the garden for a moment and read in a book I already read long ago, but started again. it is Shogun, of James Clavell.
Started again I love the book again(there also was made a TV serie of it, great!).
And I have here the second part of the Mysteries of the Woods kit.
Have a wonderful week!
