Clematis

One of those plants that isn't so different in German "die Klematis" (and also "die Waldreben").

Friday was a blessing.  It was not brutal.  It was difficult enough though, but nowhere near the energy sapping horror of the rest of the week.

Today and yesterday were the first really hot days of the year.  I've had over 27°C in the office for the last 2 days.  That tends to scramble what I have left for a brain.

I am really looking forward to weekend where I intend to do things that are not work related.  If I get lucky with the weather tomorrow morning there will be lawn mowing.  And if I don't, then I'll find something else to do.
