great excitement today…
ran out and did a number of errands and when I got home came outside and sat by the pond… first time I’ve been out on the back deck this year… only brought out cushions for one chair but it was delightful to sit out and read a book in the sunshine…
had my lunch there and eventually it got so hot that I changed into a tank top and shorts…
kids came over and my son-in-law cleaned the leaves out of the pond, with a little help from the younger boys… they found a frog, woohoo, which always makes me happy… maybe it has been making the odd noise I’ve been hearing when I’ve been in the hot tub over the last week or so…
and he got the pumps in and working…
there is still lots of work to do in the pond, as dead plants need to be removed, ones that are starting need to be cleaned up, and new ones purchased and popped in, although not before all chances of frost are gone… have lost a few when I was over eager, lol…
we had barbecued steak for supper and now they are gone and I am sitting listening to the water running with the sun shining in my face and a blanket on to keep me cozy…
will be sure to have a hot tub to enjoy the sound of the water before bed…
summer really is coming;-)…
