summer time and the living is easy?

I had to do a double take as according to my calendar and the general population when polled, it is June...
First of all how did that happen? is it a leap year that skips April and May?
Did wonder woman actually spin the wrong way and shot us into the future?

All of these are valid and totally believable explanations to how it got to be June without me knowing it!
Sadly I have not heard my beautiful serenader lately not because I have not been home but the windows are all closed and the flannel I am dressed in head to toe muffles any sounds I may encounter!

It is cold.... not just cold but cold and wet... my back yard garden is sadly green... not many flowers yet I think they are scared to come show their pretty faces.

So the approach of June brings me to another dreadful realization I have been going to the gym for 6 months... yikes I thought I would be so much svelter than I am... I am still a potato with toothpick legs... yes good visual yes? I am tired of all the fruit-related body types I am going for veggies. hey I am potato who wishes to be carrot like instead I am a potato with "man calves"

There is no denying my genetics these days I have gotten back into running after a not too brief hiatus and it was hard at first but I am up to about 3-4 minutes with just a minute breather in between so I am happy with that I am not training for a marathon just training for a healthier me. It was unfair to tell my cardiac patients to exercise when I myself didn't now I can tell them hey if I can do it you can do it. They take better to that and if they disagree with me I just flash my man calves at them and they comply... kidding!! really I am ...

But I highly recommend making summer resolutions, me? I am learning Spanish, what will you conquer this summer? there is something magical about summer time it is a time where anything seems possible, people are happier, air smells sweeter, and there is nothing like the smells of a bbq winding its way on the breeze into your house --- it's just a shame all my windows are closed up and my BBQ is still in the box!
Bring on the summer I say and here's to a summer time challenge!
Cheers~
