Today is a much better day. I'm not in nearly the pain I have been in the last few days. It's snowing like crazy outside right now. It's a warm wet sloppy snow at this time, it might dry out later as the temperature drops a bit more. This will pack our mountains well for the summer melt off that we depend on for water. The field in our back yard earlier was full of robins looking for drowned worms. There must have be 50 of them out there, hopping, then stop, listening to the ground for movement. It was quite a sight to see. Thank you all of you for putting up with my grouchy mood yesterday. Some days are difficult, but I don't need to take it out on all of you. Life would be boring without you being a grouch.

linen Hope your days get better! Will just send a warm fuzzy HUG! @amberfields I did some raking but it's not quite warm enough to rake my flower beds. But I'm antsy to get out there & get some work done. I love being outside! That's special of you to donate some things to that family!

That's special of you to donate some things to that family! We have two large raised beds we grow strawberries in and the other day I dug out all the old plants and weeds and got the dirt nice and clean so to speak. That took 5 hours or so to do. My hands are pretty sore from that. We have around 20 fruit and nut trees that need trimmed yet and the veggie garden will need plowed. I also weeded all my flower gardens. All the spring flowers are popping out of the ground now. So exciting. Also need to trim our blueberry bushes, blackberry and black raspberry bushes too. O and our old golden plum tree died, so we got a cherry tree to replace it. I love being outside too. I spend many hours out there tending to gardens and stuff and when I am not doing that I am usually sitting on the back porch painting. Hopefully where you live, the weather will warm up soon and you can get out there in the fresh air, soak up some sun and soothe your soul!
