Spring?

Have you heard the news? Spring arrived here! Yes, and with it came more snow! Luckily, the ground is warmer now and so most of the drivable surfaces are free of measurable snow. Where we still have snow banks, in the yard, the snow stuck and sort of freshened, what a friend lovingly labeled, “SNIRT”!

Yes, Snow + DIRT = SNIRT.

The rawness sort of got to me by mid-afternoon, so we made a fire in the hearth and Greta has really been soaking up the heat. Lord, if I could lie down on the floor in front of the fireplace with a pillow and blanket I would, but I’m afraid that I would have all four dogs jumping on me and so, no rest for the weary.

Hubby did go skiing Monday morning and so is currently up to 48 days on the slopes! He is amazing! I really admire his stick-to-a-tive-ness!

It’s just a matter of finding what makes you happy, I guess, and I have been lucky to figure it out. Hubby as well.

We’re also both looking forward to spring when we can get back to working in our garden and on the fruit trees. Oh how lovely that will be!
