This week has been absolutely beautiful. I opened the windows and cleared away all the winters ucky air and let the house breath. You could almost hear the old place take a deep sigh. It's been four days of yard work, we have a lot of trees and each one decided to shed. Boy, I didn't realize just how out of shape I was, it has been a solid week of Advil, but whatever works. I started a new project, that is beside gardening, I've decided to make a carousel. I started making the ponies, and I've decreased their sizes, boy I always picture things in my mind before I actually start them, it's called bitting off more than you can chew. Emily had to have surgery again on her paw, poor baby, but at least now she is whoobling a lot better. Goodness knows I'm not carrying a 60 lb. dog around, at least not for long. We also have a dove in our front shrub with two little eggs in there, so everyone has been coming in very slowly and quietly so as not to disturb her, but I sure will be glad when they hatch, especially since the shrub is right at the front door. Can you just imagine a more inconvenient place to put a nest. Well, that's really about all that's new here, Thank Goodness!
