This Week Is Spring
Today was a wonderful and sunny day. The air was still a bit cold but I couldn't resist working outside in the yard. I put on my boots and gloves, got some garden tools and dug around a few plants today. It always amazes me that the first things to appear are weeds! Why is that anyway? Oh well, I did see rhubarb making its way to the surface and some chives. I managed to pull out some weeds and then decided to sit in a chair, enjoy the sun and soak it up. Here's to spring! I welcome you this week!

Feeling Like Spring Cleaning?
I don't know about you , but when the sun shines after so many dark and wet days, I feel like cleaning. I guess its because you can see the dust and dirt so much better, especially at my age. I want to get the floors scrubbed, the windows clean but I also want to get outdoors , so it is a bit of a struggle trying to decide where to go and what to do. Today was a clear and beautiful morning , with the moon out and the sun coming up. I opted for outdoors today. A long walk, then home to light an outdoor fire with a cup of coffee was perfect. I couldn't help but notice a few things coming up in the garden. Chives, primroses, and the leaves on the rose bushes are starting to bud. Soon the cherries blossoms will be gracing us with their beauty. Spring is such a wonderful and beautiful season. This is the time of the year I like to take long drives in the country and look at the animals with their babies. Lambs, calves and colts, so wonderful to see them lying in the sun or kicking up their heels. Anyways, enjoy the soon to come sunnier, drier (hopefully) weather.
