I haven't spotted any yet (but haven't looked all that hard). Did you read Nabokov in Russian? I don't think I have read much Russian Literature at all. I hope your week is a good as the weekend! I am glad you are feeling better and hope that you manage to sleep better soon, too.

I've been wondering where my frogspawn is. I usually have some by now. Has yours been there long? I cleaned out the pond a while back, maybe I scared the frogs away. I love the image of Joe feeling it. Boys! Have a good week Sarah. CJ xxCJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14311693185700341580noreply@blogger.com
