Week of May 16th
The weather seemed to go from winter to summer. I am enjoying the warmth and sunshine. It is great to get out in the yard again and play in the dirt. The grass is really growing fast now with all that water we received. I think mowing lawns is on the top of everyone’s list now. My new daffodil bulbs that I planted last fall are showing their bright shiny faces. When your outside the bad things in the world go away and the birds keep singing. I think that is what I’ll focus on this week.
