Blog Neglect

There's just been so much to do. My poor little blog surely must feel neglected. We've had some very exciting events take shape in the last few weeks so I've dropped in to share them.

First of all it looks like Spring is making an effort to pop in a bit early then usual. No complaints here. It couldn't come soon enough for me. I start getting a bit of cabin fever or garden withdrawal this time of year. I happened to find the Snowdrops on January 29 and they are still out there hanging on in the cold days that have followed. On Wednesday we had temps in the 60's and I was truly excited to get outside and start cleaning the flower beds. Which leads me to the next segment of exciting news.

We bought a small cottage! We found a small parcel with a bit over an acre and a small house on it. I am proud to say we are in the midst of plastering and painting, scrubbing and installing. We are hoping to have it all done by May 1. Told Dear Fred that it can't be later then the 24th as that's when the gardening begins. Hey, I have my priorities. It was such a great day out on Wednesday we spent the day cleaning the yard. It's amazing what a rake and a bonfire can accomplish. And am very much looking forward to the surprises I see peeking thru the ground already. Something else looking forward to Spring. So there you have it dear blog. I have not forgotten you or the things that I want to accomplish this year. Things have been put on hold a bit, but I promise to stop in again soon.
