the day so far...

the morning began early with breakfast at 3:45...
then back to bed for a bit...

got back up and hopped in the shower...
got dressed...
and started cleaning the living room...
this is our "spring" look now...

traded some things out and dusted...

ran the vacuum and hit the kitchen...

doing laundry as we went...

how do you camouflage your printer?

then outside...
we took an early quick walk after the shower...
but it felt colder the second time out...

and we decided a road trip would be better...
than sitting in the shade with our teeth chattering...

the woods are starting to really fill in...

but we need rain so bad...
all the creeks are drying up...

this should be twice this wide and a lot higher...

around town a bit...

the scales on this fish spin...
I so want one...

and past the old house that sits alone...
waiting for someone to call it home again...

as so far that's been the day...
I am in the mood for a nap...
so that's where I am heading...
just a couple more days and it will warm up again...
I am ready...
right now we are having normal temps and we're used to 70s-80s...

did pick up bird seed and onion sets while we were out...
its that time again!

YOur inside AND outside look so Springy...Very pretty printer camouflage!!! I caught up on your last post too, and you are so SWEET!.. well looks like they are still a mystery...we don't have dogwoods in Iowa, or at least this part, and it's grey branches - not red...so ruled that out...oh well. Sure was nice of everybody to give their 2 cents!!! Hugs to you!!! WE ARE GOING DOWN to 23 tonight...the Windchill today has been such that I just didn't want to go out. I let Kurt go to Kam's soccer game...teeth chattering indeed...feels like about 40 out there even though the sun is shining for all its' worth. Hope this is the TAIL END of this stuff. Saw where a blog sis had snow falling in Michigan today...but that was all...it melted before it hit the ground....brrrrrr.... xoxoxo

Sounds like you had a good day to me...and I see a twin sign there on your table top!

Just a question? WHAT is the thing on the right hand side of the clock in your picture? It looks like it has a knob that turns on it? Interesting piece.

Blessings to you tonight- It was too cold here- I got a lot done today but I am paying for it tonight- xo Diana

Ok....what's up with having breakfast at 3:45am, Tete??? lol! Wow! That IS early! I love the way that you both help each other out during the day and take little drives around town. How nice it would be to have time to do that! :) Love your springy vignettes, Tete! Really pretty! And no cover ups for my printer. It sits there in all it's ugliness on my little cabinet. lol!

Your spring decorations look wonderful, and bright! I like those block signs you have there *wink.
Your day looks productive, and fun.
So glad you got out and about, Tete.
It's cold here, and we got a little snow. Tomorrow is sunshine, and a little warmer.
Hugs,
xxoo

I can't believe your clematis is already in bloom, Tete! It is gorgeous! And I love the pretty little planter on top of the vintage suit case. It's finally starting to warm up here, yeah!
