Spring

It was a beautiful day here yesterday, getting almost to 80 degrees. I went out and made it around the house with my camera.

Signs of spring were everywhere. I did not see my peonies coming up, but everything else is.

Monday our neighbor girl and a friend were sunning in the back yard. Monday wasn't as nice as yesterday. Shannon laid out yesterday. To cool down, she grabbed a couple of the grandkids water guns from the shed and filled them. When it got too hot, she would "shoot" herself. I guess it worked.

If you look close, you will see I even included my first dandelion of the season! I also included a weed.

Do you know which one it is?

Puzzled

Fourteen weeks. That can be a very looong time.

The first month was flat on the couch 24/7.

Then I progressed to the kitchen table. I gradually got to where I could sit up longer each day.

Casey had gotten me four puzzles for Christmas and I started on those.

Then Bob got out a box of my puzzles that I just never had time to do. It was a great way to pass the time when I would wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to sleep.

I haven't done any now for almost two weeks. Shannon got here and I thought I was going to be going back to work soon. Shannon will be leaving before we know it and it doesn't look like I will be going to work real soon.

Thirteen down. Eight to go.

DELIVERY !!!!







We had a delivery at our house Friday. It was for our anniversary. It had a great assortment of candy bars anchored in a floor of "kisses".

I went to pull out the card and there was three of them. None saying who it was from.

Later, Bob re-checked the envelope and found a fourth. Some " Smart Alec " put four in it !

Thank you Colleen and family.

Our First Sleep Over !!
