Spring Is Here!

We might have another frost, but we just had one the other day. Might be our last. No biggie - the temps are higher, and it feels great today! In the mid 80's as I type, with a little breeze. Might be 50% cloud cover, but pleasant clouds.

Spring means work - fixing up the yard and house after winter. In celebration of Spring's arrival, I already completed a couple jobs this weekend. A badly needed wax seal got replaced on our toilet, and I put a new fart fan (pardon the expression, but it's the trade name for it) in the bathroom just about an hour ago. Since then, I've been tending to the garden and back yard, giving them a badly needed drink. Later on, I'll have to mow the yard - or maybe just use the blower/mulcher and get rid of those pesky elm seeds. There are so many of them out there that it looks like it snowed.

We've got to start cleaning out the garage this weekend, too, so we can start filling it up again. Next weekend, I plan on replacing the front porch lights with motion sensing lights - one in the alcove, and one on the outside wall above the steps.

Sounds like a lot, but not really. It's all in the interest of making our home more pleasant and secure.

Have a great Spring, everybody!
