Yesterday was May 1st....commonly known as May Day. When we were kids we would make baskets and put flowers and treats in them and give them to the neighbors. Mom usually saved the green plastic "crates" that tomatoes used to come in for just such a purpose. I really miss doing that kind of thing...I wish I'd thought enough ahead to do something like that again...maybe next year....
The tulips out front have blossomed and the jonquils are out as well. I'm finally getting SPRING... Today it's raining with more SNOW in the forecast but I guess this desert state will take all the moisture it can get. The birds have been cleaning out the food in the feeders daily. We're thinking of adding another feeder in the front and 2 in the back yard- if Harley will let them be. (Stupid dog-thinks birds are play toys....)
There isn't anything new and exciting going on around here; we're still Spring cleaning- going through boxes and closets and the like. Hopefully when the weather gets nicer we'll get out to the garage and get it squared away again. My friend Melissa really inspired me- she made enough room in her garage to put their boat And their van inside! Talk about organized! We've made 3 or 4 trips to donate clothes and toys to Somebody's Attic and I've been giving away toys, books and food to friends and coworkers. (Pretty soon they'll run when they see me approach with a bag...)
