Well it seems Spring is springing! Yesterday I saw a crab apple tree in full bloom. there it stood on Anderson Boulevard all decked out in bright pink like a young girl's first stab at lipstick. I saw a forsythia starting to blush in lemon yellow blossoms, still too shy or reluctant to pop all at once. The tulips bordering the North Portico of the Luxurious Pimplebutt Estate are showing me that they survived yet another winter. It's time to go out and clear away the last remnants of Autumn leaves and dog poo that surround them now. But the weatherman says we might have yet an inch or two of snow to watch Saturday night into Sunday morning.
The director of the famed Easter Pageant on the Hillside gave me a new script in LARGE PRINT to help me with my Mr. Magoo vision. My cataracts should be a memory by mid April as surgery has been scheduled. Left eye on the 14th, right eye on the 21st.
Mom wants to drive me to the out patient clinic. How many times in your life do you get a chance to pull a really great practical joke? After the surgery and the receptionist lets Mom back to the Recovery room, I think I'll raise my hands in the air and ask "Mom? Is that you?" and then feel her face.
That will either drive her batty or give her a giggle. Either way I can't resist!
I wish I had as pleasant a way to tell that Spring has arrived. For me it's the fact that I've gotten my first tick bites of the year.![]()
Already?? Gosh, we are supposed to get more snow this weekend!
I wondered if it was snowing at your house.
Sunny, gentle breeze, and 71 here today.
Not yet. We're supposed to get a little on Sunday. It was actually a decent day today, sunny with a high of about 50, a little windy though.
