Yellow Finch

I have been seeing the finches etc at the feeders every morning but this is the first time I have seen one all dressed in yellow!!!!!! Does this little bird know something I don't know...... Maybe just maybe the weather is going to warm up for us. I sure hope it does as I have never seen a yellow finch until we have warm weather.... I am ready!

Not much else happening around here. Yesterday was a busy day though. We cleaned out the little pill cupboard... funny how much stuff you can shove in a small space... now we have a lot of room in there again. I also cleaned out 3 craft drawers in my computer room and gave away at least 35 things. then we went to get gas.... $2.19 a gallon... whew. Good thing I don't use my car much I guess. It will probably last me 3 weeks or so .... not bad. Thats why I like my little car. Then I had to go to Walgreens and call the doctors office to order some pills for Leo and had to go all over town to get some more yarn to match the poncho Im making because I decided to make a bigger one. Then I paid my bills, the only thing I didn't do that was on my list was to water my plants.. got that done this morning though.
Today was the day to clean off any flat surfaces in the bedroom and dust them. Ours are still in pretty good order but I decided to clean out a box on my dresser and doing that I found some things to get rid of. Now I have a whole day ahead with nothing to do... Maybe I will crochet but I just don't want to sit all day. Leo is gone to wash my car so I'm stuck for awhile. I hope he comes right back after he is finished. :)

                        SPRING BRINGS HOPE

What delights us in the spring is more a sensation
than an appearance, more a hope than any visible
reality. There is something in the softness of the air,
in the lengthening of the days, in the very sounds and
odors of the sweet time, that caresses us and consoles
us after the rigourous weeks of winter.
