Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. It's sunny and warm, and today will be close to 70. It will be a doors open day for sure, and a day to get outside as much as possible, get caught up in the yard.
Yesterday: We didn't end up doing much outside, it was much too windy (and even though the sun was warm, the wind was not! LOL!). So, instead, after taking DH to dialysis, I went on a hunt for tea cups. I wasn't very successful - but I did find some wonderful wrought iron dragonflies for my garden! LOL! I also had a friend come do some measuring to give me an estimate on building a "real" porch (instead of just a cement pad). I don't know if that will actually happen, but nice to dream about. :)
Today: I've gotten a good start on the day, and hope I can keep my momentum going. I have a bit of catching up to do inside; but by this afternoon I really hope to go play in the dirt! LOL!
Today is "Tweed Day" ... "Anniversary - Pony Express Mail Service" ... "Mothering Sunday (UK)".
