I am surrounded by cute!

this table in front of the windows might not be as good of an idea as I thought it would be...
I have gotten hardly anything done today...

sure, I had breakfast and lunch...

pottied a few times, and not alone...

dried a load of pants and folded them...

took a short nap...

opened the bathroom window...

its official...
the robin is here...
just one...

let's see, what else did I do?

I looked in the fridge a few times...

put a couple things in the paper for next week...

played with the babies...

boy, now its getting tough...

listened to the answering machine as the election calls keep coming in...

I watched some guys play with their nuts...

that's pretty much it...

thinking another longer nap is needed...

I'll need my strength to fix supper tonight...

its so peaceful and quiet here...

most of the cats are asleep and the dog...
the tv is off...
you know, it needs to rest up, too, after being on the sports channel all weekend...
we are up to 59F...
waiting on that 65F...

did I mention I took some photos today?
you're lucky...
there's at least 4xs this in the folder that won't get posted...
;)
they are calling for 69F tomorrow!
we are having a heat wave here....
lovin' it...
still too wet to play...
no dirt, just mud...
but the time is closer than it was...
we sure have a lot of raking to do and sticks to pick up...
starting on that next weekend if we can get a good day or two in...

hope your Monday was as awesome as mine!
just kidding, hope it was better...
praying your spring comes, too...
;)

that's two things marked off of my list...

I finally got my potting table moved inside today!
and I am not sure that's going to be a good idea...
I sat there way too long...
taking too many photos...

but you might as well see on of my squirrels in action...

so many nuts and so little time...

running here and there...

they seemed to have gone through the winter alright...

and there were three doves at the feeders this morning...
and I even witnessed dove sex...

Craig and I went for a short walk and then took a rake to the side yard...
just peeking a bit...
but we found more green...

and its happening under there...

we covered them back up...
got another two weeks and then the leaves must come out of the beds...

thing number two...
I got Craig to move the swing from the island to the side yard right in front of the field...
we can sit out here and look at stars at night...
we can sit here on those hot summer mornings and watch the sun come up...

there is so much work to do just in the clean up...

but its so muddy off of the sidewalks and roads...

and I took a peek in here to see if it needed more spring...

nope, I think its good to go for now...

and I started playing around again...

in the easter box...

so things are going here and there...

sock monkey bucket > living room...

ears> Bebe later on...
he does wear them...

creations> crafting area (aka potting table)

potting table...

yeah, the crafting area...

climbing curtains!

they are super fun to watch, but it won't be long before they are heading out of here...
they are using a poop box really well now...
and last week, they are eating more hard food and drinking water...
they still chase mom down a few times a day...
and she lets them nurse some, but most of the time she walks away...
usually with one hanging on under her belly...
got two whole days to myself...
and its going to be in the 60s those days...
then snow on Wednesday...
got to love this time of the year...
hope you all had a fun day...
I had so much fun, I need a nap before supper!
;)

our Saturday...

I hope you had a good Saturday...
we only got up to 42F and it was cloudy all day...
but it was still better than what we have had...

check out the 'new' guy...

the first sighting of the woodpeckers this year...
beautiful...

and look what I found!
its green!

and the lilac has buds...

and the last remains of a huge snow pile...
where the city plow left all of the snow...

there's a murder of crows flying behind the limbs...

and I love the yucca...
always green...

puttered today, but not hard...
DH got a hair cut, which never takes me long...
Bebe got a bath and blow dry and a slight trim with the scissors...
paws mainly and around his eyes...
we all went for a walk...
talked to one of the neighbors...

I am slowly letting the guys in on some of the plans for spring...
already getting eye rolls...
I know better than to let them know everything all at once...
they would run away from home for sure...
;)
no plans for tomorrow...
just hanging out and if I feel like it, some more cleaning...
hope you have a good Sunday...
and don't forget the clocks!
so excited about having the sun shine a little bit longer in the evening!
