Yup, spring... Gorgeous sunlight may have given way to clouds, but still rather mild. New blossoms. FIRST BEE OF THE YEAR! She seemed to be working really hard to collect enough pollen on her legs. Nice forty-minute walk with Nora, with a safely-socially-distant chat with friends mid-way, and two times crossing the creek. Some yard work. Visible progress... but got hung up with lack of proper equipment... um... needed a chainsaw... And I wrenched my back a bit... yeah, let's just call it a bit. Got seriously frustrated... angry... and then... down. But... onward. I'm good. And I'll keep plugging away at all the things it seems I'll never catch up on.

Back in my favorite comfy sweats. Dinner eaten. Thinking about dessert. Watching Voyage of the Dawn Treader with the reds. Equanimity restored. 😉😊 #signsofspring

If it required leather gloves, and I got muddy, it must have been at least a little fun. And I think I found the currants under the blackcap overgrowth... 😊
I didn't just read yesterday. 🌱

Social distancing activity pic of the day...
Watching SNOWFLAKES fly and fall?!? 🌨️🤷❄️ It IS pretty... but it's not warm or green. I'm looking forward to warm sun on my skin, and green growing things.

Social distancing activity pic of the day... Reading a library book on the couch...
In my favorite comfy sweats. 😊

I stocked up on books when I knew my local library was closing in interest of public health. And isn't a nice stack of books wonderful?!? Did you know you can also borrow e-books and digital audio books through your public library even if it's closed? You can. They also offer various free online resources.
