It was raining really hard today. Raining from the roof turned my yard into a puddle.
The street was starting to look like a river.
Inside, I have my reminder of Easter.
April already!!!!
It's been a while since I have posted anything and even my reading your posts is falling by the wayside. I am in Florida now. I have a yard where little attention was spent on landscaping for the past years so I am slowly and (somewhat) methodically addressing that. I also volunteer to work at the pollinator garden and the edible garden I helped install at the UU grounds and I took over the volunteer job of cleaning out the overgrown community garden by my neighborhood mailboxes. The neighbor who was doing that got sick and could no longer attend to it. It's a bigger job than I'd thought at first -- not only overgrown with weeds, but the plants that are wanted there are in life and death competition for each others' spaces. And two walks a day, morning and evening, so Levi can keep up with addiction to canine social media and a daily rousing came of stick or ball midday take up another chunk of my time. I have a weekly meditation group that I co-facilitate, and my own ...
We had quite the storm a couple of days ago- I was so glad to see bright blue skies and no clouds today.
ReplyDeleteWell get your lawn mower ready, you should have lots of green grass to take care of.
ReplyDeleteWow! No wonder that grass is so green. Don't eat all that candy at once, Olga - pace yourself. I've finally found spring at a lower altitude.
ReplyDeleteWow, it was definitely coming down. I hope the sun comes out soon.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Yup, it's almost the third of April, and time to put away the Easter decorations. The candy is almost gone too. I've been working hard to make it disappear, then I will have to work hard to make it disappear from me!
ReplyDeleteEaster has gone and April has come. Lets enjoy the time!
ReplyDeleteWe haven't had a good rain for a long time, which means I have to run my lawn sprinkler every night now.
ReplyDeleteHi Olga- I am new to your blog and look forward to following it (I am also a retired Special Educator/School Administrator).
ReplyDeleteWe have just ended our 6 months of rain (Parksville, BC) and now are entering our 6 months of drought (literally).

Not so much rain here but lots of nasty wind.
ReplyDeleteSkies are clear here in Hawaii. Mmm... M&Ms with peanuts would make me smile anyday.
ReplyDeleteYour remains of an Easter celebration are so sweet

ReplyDeleteAll that wonderful rain. No wonder your yard is so green and vibrant -- unlike mine! I hate this drought.
ReplyDeleteAh yes, April showers bring out the lawn mowers.
