spring

I am declaring my two week hiatus into hell officially over and that it is now Spring...I know the new season technically started a few weeks ago but I was too busy wallowing and it was still pretty damn cold. In my book it isn't really Spring until you start going outside in the mornings and there is not a bit of chill in the air, you have to start mowing the lawn, and well, it just feels like it. I mowed my lawn for the first time this year, yesterday, and the Pea and I had one of those really great days where we not only got out and had lots of fun, but we also managed to get a few things accomplished. It was a great mommy day, we laughed and enjoyed ourselves, we worked together on the yard, and we just enjoyed it.

We started yesterday with an Easter Egg hunt, headed to DD for coffee and doughnuts, spent the rest of the morning and early afternoon at a horse show and then spent the late afternoon and evening in the yard. I got it mowed, got some weeding done, and managed to edge one side of the driveway. I would have been able to do the entire driveway, if I actually owned an edger, but since I don't, and was on my hands and knees with a trowel, I got tired quick, and gave up. I guess it is time to invest in more tools...or go steal them from DH.

Today started on a good note with the Pea allowing me to hang in bed until 8:30...she didn't let me sleep mind you..no, no, but she did let me loll around and be lazy, and for that I am grateful. We headed to the beach after that for a nice brunch and then digging. That is all we ever really do at the beach, dig. Every once in awhile she likes to take a walk or collect seashells, but for the most part we dig and then fill in holes...fun and games. We are home now...under the guise of getting the house cleaned and laundry done, but since I am on the computer, I really don't see that happenin'.

I am glad to be feelin' better, and to have a more upbeat outlook on things overall...I have high hopes for the new season bringing some peace and happiness...I also hope to get my butt busy writing more so you have more to read...HAPPY SPRING!
