treeskinIt's already over 70 degrees here, and what little snow that was left yesterday evening is gone. In its place, large puddles of *cold* standing water.
We are outside enjoying thw sun, because the kids don't care how wet they get. I have seeds for cold-weather lettuce and peas in my pocket, in case I get as far as clearing that bed and doing some early planting. Or I may just sit in the sun and knit.
Daffs and snowdrops are up, and some crocus. Hopefully the snow that's supposed to come next Monday doesn't do too much damage. Oh, and my magnolia has a satisfying number of big fat flower buds on it, even with the winter we've had.
It is Day 2 of potty training for The Miss. She's still very excited about getting to wear big girl pants. I'm excited about the prospect of only buying diapers for one kid.
I've been listening to all the news from the middle east and fretting. Mom's first cousin and her family (several kids and grandkids now) live in Saudi, and none of the family here have heard from them since the unrest in Egypt started.*crosses fingers*
