Springtime is officially in the Midwest

My trees in front of my house bloomed OVER NIGHT.

I am wearing sandals; NOT snowboots.

I went for a ride today in a convertible and GOT A SUNBURN just in one hour's worth of not wearing sunblock!!! (redhead)

My neighbor grilled out last night, it smelled sooo good!

I'm cutting my grass this weekend; haven't touched the lawnmower since November. My neighbor cut his grass so now I have to.



I'm still jazzed about the sunburn. Finally, some color.




Been a long winter, or is it just me? Feels like ions since I saw leaves on trees.

Lots of people have been sick over the winter... weird stuff... throat & lung illnesses & stuff never heard of... or it is just around here?

(I still keep bracing myself for the Weatherman to say, "snowshowers this weekend with record lows...")

Ok, none of the pictures are of the trees in bloom or of the "sunburned lass". Time to update the web album!

I share the lawnmower pain. My daughter reminded me that grass DOES grow and lawnmowers are occassionally needed BEFORE April 8! Talk about chopping down a jungle. I have 3 dachshunds - all I would see was a ripple in the grass and then ...

!VOILA!

Instant weiner dog convention waiting for their treats.

Cheers to the TCS favorite "Lady in Red"....

Well it's like that over here, and it's Autumn! We have had the odd rainy day but so far it has been just as nice as Summer!
