Good Morning all,
It is just past 9:00 a.m. here in overcast but dry and cool Oakwood. Going up to 60°F/16°C this afternoon.
Saw a glorious brilliant orange sunrise this morning to start my day off with a bang.
We are off to the TriArt Spring Show this afternoon. Will take my camera so I can share some of the wonderful art with you again.
We are having chicken pot pie for dinner this evening with the left over chicken from making soup earlier this week. I have the pastry mixed and resting in the fridge, the meat is cubed, will prep the veggies later as well so when I go to put it together and bake it in the oven, it will be easy peasy.
Annie, Yikes on the messy mowing job you had. Speed kills, especially on dangerous mountain roads. Culling of the herd, I guess. :rolleyes:
Geoff, Welcome home. We cut our pampas grass a week or so ago. The yard looks different now.
Uschi, It is so nice that you are so friendly with your DIL’s mother! Brava to you both!
to all who were here before me and to all still on their way.SYL,
Sylvia
Good Morning! It’s a glorious sunny start to our Spring day! Ted will be out burning piles of sticks and branches that littered our lawn for most of the winter. Raking them up is a big chore as they get caught in the tines of the rake.
He’s also placed and installed some of the old cupboards downstairs in the former laundry room. It’s going to look good and will be a great place to store bulk items such as paper toweling from Costco.
He’ll be pulling out the laundry tub and installing the old double sink. He’s decided that it will all need to be repainted, and I agree. It’s essentially going to be his room, so all the choices will be his.
My only commitment for the day will be to get the laundry done. I’m going to head downstairs to work in the Studio for awhile. I have odds and ends that need to be finished on a couple of lesson plan studies.
Have yourselves a happy and creative day, everyone!Char --

We must leave our mark on this world Beautiful spring day here, will enjoy my duty at the Village today. For once I am ready and not tearing out the door, leaving things behind However, saying that, I looked at the clock and realize I must eat now as being picked up in 18 minutes
Will check in later, but wanted to say, what a great group you have joined, Bill! Looks like they have lots of support. Will be interested, once you get more involved in hearing how they operate. We are always looking for more ways to expand our influence in the community.
Have a great day everyone!
:grouphug: Cheers, Lynn

Yippee! Don’t know what to do today. Legs not happy. All that walking and stair climbing for Friday’s audition. Yesterday wanted to walk to the post office to mail thank you to auditor. Only managed to walk to the end of the block and stick it in the mailbox. Then home again. Did manage to do some cooking later.
((((Marielena)))) I feel for you. I lost my little diabetic cat in February, and think of her every day.
Bill your work is lovely. Lots of lovely art there. Have you tried gray mattes? I am wondering if black might overwhelm your beautiful delicate work.
Annie life on your mountain is always an adventure.
Steve can we see that rocker? 175 years old! Wow.
Linda love the sign. Sounds like a movie script in that.
Doug your pie looked scrumptious.
Well I must think what to do with my day.

Good Afternoon!
Well, I am spent, will sit and read now.
In the morning I did the laundry, the finances for the club and knitting while waiting for the ice to melt:D
I have been gardening since 2:00 p.m. and it is 4:30 now. Mostly snapping off the perennial stems from last fall. I had to get into all sorts of contortions trying not to step on any daffodils or tulips that were coming up. Nowhere near done yet but the weather will be nice tomorrow too so more then.
The sump pump is still spewing out water. Half the lawn was dug up probably by racoons digging for the bugs that were eating up my lawn in fall.
The weather is GORGEOUS!!!!!! I was working in my Tshirt. 15C:thumbsup:
Sylvia, yes it is nice that DIL’s mom and I get along so well. We became friends when the kids were dating over 25 years ago. She was widowed and I was single and we used to travel together until one year when I couldn’t go and she went alone and came back with a prospective husband whom she did marry:D
Kay, sorry your leg hurt so much, it’s funny because yesterday mine hurt more than normal too and yet it was a lovely day.
Char, Ted really is working very hard on this construction. Moving right along:thumbsup:
Linda, lovely fishies and a funny sign.
to ALL!!!Uschi
