Five on Friday

Monday:

 The morning was cloudy, but not raining. It was very pleasant. I decided to take a long walk in the morning. The tress beside the trail were blooming with white, pink , purple , and more colors. The Spring has come out with full life. The creek on the side of the trail was full of water. The water was flowing in full force, as if it was a mountain river. I had never seen that much water in that very creek. The coots were swimming merrily in the creek. 



Tuesday:


It had been raining since last night. The alarm clock went off exactly at 5:30, though I woke up long before that. It was pitch dark outside, the gentle tapping sound of rain resisting me to leave the bed.  What a pleasant feeling to lay awake in the bed. I could feel that the clock was running in full pace. At last I could overcome the force and came out from the blanket. The bed room was tar black. I peek through the blinds of the window, I could see nothing but dark except the falling rain near the street light. I try to see the clock in the dark it was 6:30, though the outside signaling wrong. Today I had not much work in the morning. At 8:30, while I was taking my son to school, as I took turn from the lane I saw the hill nearby was covered with gray-white cloud. The cloud was so heavy , it seemed that it would directly come down on the earth.


Wednesday:
I woke in the morning in the drumming sound of the rain. Unlike yesterday, I got out of bed as soon as I opened my eyes.  The pelting sound of rain, and the pitch dark outside tempting me to back to bed. However, a tons of jobs were waiting for me. When I took my son to school the sky started clearing, and soft sunshine started coming out. However it was too cold to take a walk. I came back home. Also, I had swimming class. Still I’m struggling with side kick. Am I getting too old to learn swimming? 


Thursday:
Today, at last the day had started with beautiful golden sunshine. Morning I’d plenty of time to do all my jobs, as Mr. Man took the kiddie to school. Around 10 in the morning I went to take a long walk. Though the sun was bright , but the breeze was very chilly. Today I finished all the small bags I was making for my friends. Now, only little finishing touches are to be done. Everything was fine, until I went start my car. To pick my son from school, when I tried to start my car, it was just not making any sound. Wednesday everything was fine. Then again I walk all the way to school. After Mr. Man came home from office he also tried to start the car. Then we realized that the battery died down. Actually, kiddie was paying in the car yesterday. He opened and closed the car too many times. For that reason I battery died down.

A bagful of lemons came from my friend's backyard


Friday: 
Since morning, the sky was dark gray. My car at last got back in life with a jump-start. The whole day it had been raining. Hopefully, tomorrow it was going to stop. As usual it was busy Friday. I couldn’t go to walk in the morning due to rain. 

Perfect for rainy afternoon- coffee and cake

Sounds like you are getting plenty of rain, I am sure that is going to be great for all the pretty flowers to bloom so nicely :) I am glad that you didn't have anything bad wrong with your car, just a dead battery, Hope you enjoy a nice weekend

Wow, a lot of rain has fallen on your area. How strange. We are behind in our rainfall for this time of year. Hopefully you will have a sunshiny weekend. ♥

It looks like Spring has arrived in your area. We got the Pink blossom trees too, but this week is raining. That bowl of lemons looks delightful. I love anything with lemons.

Have a pleasant weekend, and I hope the sun shines for you.

Never to old to learn to swim.
The lemons look good and weeds always weeds.

Nancy Chan said...

From the 1st photo, I can see that it was a lovely place to walk. I just bought a lemon plant and I hope it will bear fruit soon. Glad to hear that it was only a flat battery and not some serious problem. Have a great day!

Hello, So sorry about your car battery but glad it is charged again. You have had a lot of rain lately. The colorful trees are pretty. Glad you could enjoy a walk, despite the cold. I hope you will enjoy the weekend.

We've gotten lots of rain here, too, in the past couple of days. Doesn't happen often in this desert country so we take it when we can. All too soon summer will arrive and it will be 50 C and way too hot to do much of anything. Have a good weekend.

Tomoko said...

Many flowers are beginning to color your area! They are beautiful and, wow! a lot of lemons from your friend's backyard.Happy weekend to you!

Jeanie said...

Spring has come to your world. It's beautiful. Shouldn't be too long here!

Jean said...

I enjoyed reading the account of your week. Sounds like you've had lots of rain. We need it very much around here although I do enjoy the sunshine. Glad you figured out what was wrong with your car. Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend!

I'm going to guess that the drought is over in California with all that rain!

Love your five randoms.

Oh, to be able to go out and pick fresh lemons, how divine. What a lovely bounty!!

Thanks for your visit and sweet comments. : - )

Betsy said...

A good read of the account of your week. The picture of the dandelion is a perfect picture for sunshine. Pretty flower or weed when it takes over.
I think it's wonderful you are learning to swim, I never did. I regret that.
Happy Week ahead to you with clear sailing
Betsy

Backyard lemons have so much more flavour than store bought ones don't they? excellent for cooking and baking :) Thanks for joining in with Five on Friday

Hello, Your walks sound nice and peaceful. The blossoming tree and flowers are lovely. Sorry about the car battery, we had to replace one recently too. I would love to have a lemon tree. Have a happy day!

Karen said...

Hello, I'm so glad to have found your blog. Thank you for visiting me. I was an adult before I learned how to swim properly, so keep at it! Glad to hear all is well with your car. Your photos are beautiful.

Karen @ Beatrice Euphemie said...

Oh, the rain.....it is non-stop rain here this week, too! I keep telling myself that it is good for the Earth and the flowers, but I wish it would stop! Beautiful to see the flowering tree and little wildflowers on your walks and a lemon tree sounds wonderful. Sorry to hear about your car battery, but glad it was nothing more serious. Have a lovely week ahead! xx Karen

Great post! Have a good week :)

Judy at GoldCountryCottage said...

Krishna, it looks like you have great trails to walk. I envy you laying in bed hearing the rain on the roof. It is something I have enjoyed since childhood, but our Cottage has a very high attic space above us so we can't hear the rain at all and I miss it. Thank you for you kind words to me. I do enjoy writing and taking photos..Happy Wednesday..Judy

Lady Jane said...

I love rainy days, especially when I can stay home! There's nothing better than sitting on the couch on a rainy day, with a book, a cup of coffee, and some cookies by your side!

I am very busy. I hope you will forgive me.
Kisses:)
