This Is Me--2024 A to Z Theme

My A to Z Themes in the past have covered a range of topics and for 2025 the theme is a random assemblage of things that are on my mind--or that just pop into my mind. Whatever! Let's just say I'll be "Tossing It Out" for your entertainment or however it is you perceive these things.

June in April ( #AtoZChallenge )

 


       June seems like it's here already.  At least for me.  Since one of my daughters and her family have been visiting it seems like summer because that's when we usually see them.  And what happened to winter in California anyway?  We seemed to have a very short cold season this year and now the weather is definitely springlike if not like summer.  But in Los Angeles it doesn't matter that much.  Our weather is usually pretty nice.

Happy Harbingers ( #AtoZChallenge )

 



        Harbingers of spring is a term I've heard most of my life.   They seem more obvious back in the Eastern United States than here in California.  I'm sure they're here, but mostly not noticeable to me.  Weather is probably the biggest indicator, but that is not always a reliable way to look at the seasons.  We had some very warm winter days.  Come to think of it, we didn't have much of a winter at all this past few months.  I guess the warm weather was maybe a harbinger of spring?  Seems kind of silly to me, but that's L.A.   La La Land as they sometimes say.  La la la.  I can't hear you...
