I was brushing my hair recently and thinking of my grandma…

she was a force to be reckoned with… she worked all her life and struggled with health issues for a good portion of that time… she played the piano like a pro and spent the last years of her life homebound and making regular calls to shut ins to keep them connected;-)…

this was her brush, which I use every now and then… she wore her hair about an inch long and brushed straight up;-)…

it was a bit of a sad day today, even though the sun was shining;-)…

a moving truck arrived and took all morning to empty out the house next door…

I am going to miss my little buddy and his baby sister (oh yes, and their parents, lol), but they aren’t moving too far away and will be around as they are renting the house…

started April by changing up the living room table

this time I moved all the crystals to one square, filled a second square with shells… the third square included birds and critters… the final square with some of my favourite books…

looks good…

got some lovely flowers on Tuesday…

had fun trimming and putting them into a couple of vases…

one went onto the living room table right by where I spend a good portion of the day…

the second went into the den so I can enjoy them while watching tv…

great way to start my birthday month, lol…

Tuesdays…

got up early, put in my contacts, put on my swimsuit, made sure my swim bag had everything needed in it… and headed to the pool with my buddy…

got there just in time… only to learn all classes had been cancelled this week because of spring break, lol…

this was the second time we’ve been to a Tuesday class… the first time we arrived late because we thought the start time was fifteen minutes later than it actually was… and this time the class was cancelled… I don’t think Tuesdays are our day, lol…

when I got home the good news was that I didn’t need to hang anything up to dry;-)…

too funny…

day-to-day…

just about every time I walk up or down the stairs to the second floor, I stop and look out the window…

watching the garden change from day-to-day

maybe a bunny, a cat, solar lights, new flowers, squirrels, birds, so many changes take place if you take a moment to look…

this photo shows a few solar lights, one of which was under the snow, lol…

soon it will be green again… please🤪…

yesterday, I took some photos of the sticky note that is on the mirror at the front door…

in the summer it is often located on the front door so that visitors know I am in the garden;-)…

I took the photos as I was eagerly anticipating spending time in the garden because this is how it was looking outside;-)…

that was at 2:45 pm when I laid down for a nap… when I looked outside at 5:45 pm it looked like this…

and this morning, this is what I saw outside…

another giggle from Mother Nature, lol…

Wednesday morning after I had my breakfast, I walked over to Ultracuts for a haircut… I had called and they weren’t busy so I moved quickly, lol…

it has been very icy for quite some time so I was a bit concerned as I wondered if the sidewalks would be clear… and, happily they were…

it was great to get the haircut because the last few home cuts were poorly done, lol…
