Sunday musings...

Uncovered the tulip bed for what I hope is the last time this morning. Yesterday I drained and cleaned the humidifier so it can dry for a few days before I bag it and put it away. The grass is starting to green up and the dog wants to spend every minute she can outside as long as someone else is out there; I don't know if she's worried about her hips or that she can't see well enough to know if she's safe or not. Going on 14 and not a small dog, we know we're on borrowed time and my heart aches thinking about it!

I've spent some time yesterday and today trying to dig my bench out from a winter's accumulation of things it was too cold to sort or put away because I need to make use of it. (Things to work on that are too messy for the kitchen table, lol.) I've been filing job apps and soon enough someone is going to call then all the hours I spent doing other things I'll wish I'd spent making better use of!

I did pick up the county lake permit for our boat on Friday, so that's the last of the state and county licensing for the year. Hopefully I get enough time to make it worthwhile...

So, with that, time for a latte and pb&j then back to the garage!

I hope you are all having wonderful weekends and that Monday is kind to each of you!

Busy as always, but at least it's fun "getting ready for spring" stuff!
We're a few weeks behind you. I can't do any of that stuff safely until after tax day. But, I can't wait. (We did get to uncover the grill a couple times though!)

Fourteen is pretty old for a dog. I always remember what an early commenter on our blog wrote several years back when my sister had to put her aging great dane down: Every puppy is a potential heartbreak, but oh the in-between. I hope your dog is feeling fine, and enjoys the first hints of spring.

Good luck on the job hunt.

Putting away the humidifier? -so you have dry winters and moist summers? -that would make the cold more bearable, I suppose...

Here's to the end of winter (I hope)...we had snow last week, freezing weather this weekend, blah!
