Spring!

I am so happy it's here!
My flowers are coming up! These are my crocus. My chiondoxa are now coming up. So pretty. I dread Friday's cold and rain. It's going to do mean things to my flowers. My tulips are starting too. So lovely!


To help usher in Spring and my birthday (April 15) I though I needed new shoes. Not just one pair, but three! Collected over the last few weeks I now have the Primary colors!

Remember the song? The primary colors are one, two, three,

RED!
YELLOW!!
And BLUE!!!! These are the best - they are microfiber. Sweet! They are gorgeous and happy!Anyone jealous? I am. Now all I need are green and purple. Orange is just one step to far for pumps. Right now. Ask me later and I might tell you differently.

Spring

I know it feels like spring will never come. It's my favorite season. New
life, flowers, my birthday and my anniversary. Could it get better? Well as part of my
avoiding depression the last few weeks of the cold, I planted Crocuses. (I do love snow and
how peaceful and beautiful it is - I like to enjoy each season as it's here - but Spring is
AMAZING!).

For the last two weeks my crocuses have been
pushing up through the bark and snow. This morning they achieved full spring glory. They
are small flowers but so happy. The yellow always come up first, then the white, and next I
should have some purple ones. So for those of you who are spring lovers, I suggest planting to
snow crocus. They come up in early February and are guaranteed to bring hope of spring. There
are also other early bloomers, in bulb form. Look in the fall at places that sell plants. It's
great! You plant them once in late October and then they come up every year with no more
effort on your part but to keep them weeded. Yay flowers!!

Time Waster

I set out to post to my blog and ended up playing with the look for two
hours. I think I'm on my way to where I want it. Not there yet. But I have an update on my
flowers. My hyacinth came and are on their way out. Sad, but they smelled so good while they
were there.

Then the tulips started coming up. They are
wonderful. My favorite flower.
This afternoon we were at my parents and my
cute sister was getting ready to go to Accolade. A friend of mine, who did my hair for my
wedding, came and did her hair. It looked great. I hope she has fun at the dance. She took
some pictures with my little Winston dog.
You are now looking and the sum total of what I
got done today. I am a time waster.

I Love Ikea

We went to Ikea on Saturday and we finally have enough book shelf room for
all our books!
I'm finally feeling like this is the house how
I want it. They were cheap and easy to put together! I love Ikea.

Spring has sprung. Last fall I planted a few hundred bulbs of
different sorts and they are starting to come up. The crocus were first.














The
puppies are going stir crazy. They are driving me crazy. Lacy started to lick her wound and
now she has to wear the cone for another week or two until it heals properly. Winston thinks
he's just the cleverest thing since sliced bread and
acts like it too. Fortunately they get along pretty well.
