And a very happy Spring to you! It's rainy here in NE, and they're predicting...shh!...*snow flurries* for tomorrow! So I'd like a mug of your finest coffee, please, and I'll be popping in and out to see what folks have been up to!

I can remember Easter Egg hunts in the snow back in Buffalo. Made it a lot easier to find them!

Not sure what the weekend weather will be, they promised us rain, but right now it's sunny. Maybe I can get some laundry on the line (I love the smell of outdoor-dried clothes). We also just got a new-to-us motorhome that needs some organization. So looking forward to having more room and more comfort for camping. We got a smokin' deal and it's in really good shape (but I can fix that with help from the g'son and the dog!) We have a flock of little birds (not sure what they are) hanging around the feeders and making a racket, the woodpeckers are back, and there's been a pesky squirrel around but the dog has been diligent in warning it off so it might not come back. Just tea, thanks Gramma, and Happy Weekend everyone!

The temperatures dipped back down into the 20°F range, and we just got snow again... *facepalm* :P :) Back to a Winter Usual, I guess? (LOL) ...Thanks, and I hope you have a great weekend, gramma! :) *hugs*

We are starting our Spring Clean up

Inside for now as it is raining a cold rain outside. Snow a possibility tonight. I want to get all the too-small clothes out the door. *All* my younger kids grew at least 4 inches this past year. It will be official in another month or so - I will be the shortest. My 11 yo daughter looks me in the eye now. It's maddening and hilarious at the same time to have them all around me, patting me on the head calling me "Little Mommy". But when I need something from a top shelf, all I have to do is yell "tall person" and someone comes running. So, closets, basement, desk... all will be tackled and by the end of their spring break in another 2 weeks we will have a clutter-free house! ... Ok, at least that's the plan. For now, I think I'll have another coffee please. I'm finishing up a Georgette Heyer novel so I can take it back to the library. Books first, cleaning second. I have my priorities! Enjoy the Spring weather, GrammaBD! Whatever it may be.

Our librarian was supposed to help hold an Easter egg hunt in her town tomorrow, it got cancelled because half the grounds are snowed under, and half are mud!

Everything wants to start blooming during the day, then it gets so cold at night! I've heard that even the maple sap is running late this year...

Aside from working on another assignment, my mom and I will be watching AUJ and DOS over the weekend as a preparation for BOFA arriving in stores here on Wednesday. Can't wait! Have a great weekend, y'all!

I remember when we "graduated" from tent to a pop-up trailer before baby #2 arrived...something up off the ground is a lot more pleasant for sleeping in, and gives the kids more room as they grow! How big is it?

Hey everyone, just a quick hello as I'm headed off to the Emerald City Comicon. No Tolkien guests this year, but we will have some Buffy/Firefly/Agents of Shield folks, so that should be fun. Have a good weekend all! *zooms out*

as even my largest apple and the sugar maple in the front yard is still dead quiet. Nothing happening yet, which is good (its better than popping in and out of temperature ranges) but enough already!!!! I want to see green. (Sorry I am such a bummer! I want my favorite seasons to start!) Birds are busy outfitting the roosting/nesting boxes so that's a good sign. I hope they wait a bit to clutch or their eggs will be frozen.

LOL, my kids started patting me on the head, also, once they passed me in height! But I do love taking one of them grocery-shopping with me, why is it that what I want is on the back of the top shelf! (A bit belated, but that was an awesome party your daughter had! )
