Well we did get Spring (cold and slow) and now heading toward Summer. The trees and grass are so green and beautiful. Flowers bloomed and died but were so nice this year. Seems there is always so much work to do around here when Spring hits. Sid wants everything done at once. I like one step at a time and boy my steps are slow and hesitant, to say the least. Oh well, such is life when one feels pain in every joint and the feet don't want to work. But one must get up and get at it or suffer the consequences.
It was a pleasure having Kay & Gary & Andrea & Tim here for Sid's birthday. They all pitched in and did a lot of work and cleaning up that needed doing. They replaced around 15 deck boards that had rotted, cut down a dead tree,put up the new deck swing and shelter, and took a load of junk to the recycle place. We had a big dinner and a good time chatting. Wonerful having the kids help out as well as celebrating Sid's birthday.
Sid and I planted the front flower garden and cleaned out the weeds around the sides of the house. We also planted ground coveer plants over next to the line of pines. Things are looking better and we have hired a neighbot guy to clean the walk downstairs around the lower deck. Busy days getting things in shape after winter.
I started on Facebook after a neighbor saw my son Bob on his and got me excited to try it. I like it but it is sure a time taker trying to keep up with the system. I already have 19 friends and made 2 groups, one for family and one for friends. I suppose it will give me something more to do, ha ha ha.
