Chat, chat, work, work.

Time is what we want most, but... what we use worst. ~Willaim Penn

The days are wizzing by but mostly in a good way, a Friday evening with friends, an afternoon in a sunny garden, a morning learning a new word in French sitting by a fountain, a Sunday afternoon chatting with new folks in the village.

But while I enjoy company the grass grows thick with zillions of daisies and clover, come pick me, cry the peas and raspberries . Sit for a moment and the cobwebs are a foot across. Paperwork accumulates, weeds multiply, the dust on the car hides its true colour, is it blue or green?........So the rest of the time I am busy, busy, busy!

I pop into Blogland to see what you are all doing, there is not always time to make a comment but I read wise words, enjoy arts and crafts, and sometimes become concerned if a fellow bloggerpal is unhappy or sad!

Always time for friends

Time for a week out with the camera, and not clock watching..thats next week! I hope to be doing some of the following.

Visiting Old Relics

Tee..hee hee..........

Travelling around, well a wee bit


Doing a little shopping?

Looking around markets?

I hope you have some time to get out and chat with friends too!

A French word for chat is papoter

The French word for clover is trefle.

Lazing around

Deep summer is when laziness finds respectability. ~Sam Keen

Last week I took my library books back to the old library, it is closing its doors after 126 years and in September down the hill from the Bibliotheque a new Mediatheque will replace the old.

Children, students and workers are soon to be on holiday. That afternoon after I left the old library, I walked around to the Jardin Public. Teenagers shouted and laughed at jokes, some ran around calling out to one another.

I saw a small group looking up at a lad as he told them some story. There was a magical feeling of happiness, that end of term fever.

Everything starts a fresh in September, and the new library will be a building with walls of glass, named, La Clairiere.

If you have been dashing around, or studying like mad I hope that you can enjoy some lazy days soon.
