Spring has sprung...

I don't intentionally stay away this long. I keep thinking I'll do better and time passes way to fast.

A lot of you read my Mom's blog and know about my Dad breaking his hip. Thank you for the prayers and encouragement for her. He is doing fine except for driving Mom crazy with his stubbornness...ha. She doesn't want him to end up back in the hospital.

We have been a little busy around here. Hubby wanted to add some plants to the front flower beds so we spent a couple of weekends on that. He's bought a few trees to plant out back, a red bud, a Japanese maple (the deer liked the new leaves on that one, we had to move it closer to the house), an ornamental plum, some type of oak, some type of pear (not Bradford) and a cedar. We bought a couple of tomato plants and two big blueberry bushes.

He tried to play golf a couple of weekends but kept getting rained out.  But he made up for it this weekend and played both Saturday and Sunday...he's been battling a cold and ended up staying home from work yesterday. He worked today, said he wasn't coughing as much but sneezing more. Hopefully he'll get cleared up soon...couple of years ago he ended up with bronchitis.

We are supposed to be cooler tomorrow, 50's for highs and 31 for low. I'll have to bring my tomatoes in.

Take care,
Sheila
