Weather whiplash

That is what "they" are calling the weather this spring - whiplash. Some days the high and low temps vary by as much as 30 or 40 degrees. I find it difficult to figure out what to wear. Today it is a pair of shorts and a tee.

Crocus of some kind

I saw an article about the "March mehs". Apparently, some people find the interim between winter and summer tedious and blah. Maybe these people have no yards and/or live where there is very little green space. Seeing the spring bulbs emerge despite a brutally cold winter gives me hope that everything will be okay. In fact, the flowers seem particularly joyful this year.

First daffs

While wandering around the house the other day, I found a plastic flap on the ground. It must have broken off the exhaust fan housing during one of the extremely windy days we have experienced. Fortunately, my daughter is in the remodeling biz and sent over a contractor to take care of that (and several other little jobs around the house).

Yes, I know the siding needs to be cleaned

Fall cleanup continues. The north and south sides of the house are now (relatively) tidy. All that remains is the backyard. Cataract surgery is not holding me back - one more eye to go.
