We're still working on our spring cleaning/decluttering project. Why do these things always take so long?!?
Yesterday, I decided to do my "E" post on Sunday instead.
I almost forgot, but I'm getting it done at the last minute.
Enjoy this picture of sleepy Theodore.
I really don't feel like blogging today, which is part of why I signed up for the A to Z challenge. I want to get back into the habit of regular blogging.
I've been spring cleaning and decluttering (there's another d!) all day, and I'm exhausted. It's at the "worse before it gets better" phase. I know it will be worth it, but it's definitely not fun.
Theodore has been enjoying it, though. He's having so much fun inspecting everything I drag out of closets, climbing shelves, and generally getting into everything. This picture is one of the few times he sat still today.
Are you doing any spring cleaning/decluttering?
I’m hoping to have a fairly large garden this year.
We’re not past our last frost
date yet, so, for outside, I’m only starting seeds that are a little more cold-tolerant.
I recently learned that
cilantro is best planted while it’s still chilly, and of course, greens tend to
do well in cooler weather.
So, last weekend, I started
my collard green and cilantro seeds.
I’m hoping to see little sprouts
soon!
Last year, I set up a little critter corner in our backyard to feed the wildlife that stops by. We also set up a camera so we can see our visitors.
Recently, we had some Blue
Jays stop by to eat some peanuts. (The date and time on the camera are wrong
because it messed up when the batteries died and we haven’t reset it.)
Enjoy this video of the Blue
Jays enjoying their peanuts.
Some of our azaleas are starting to bloom.
They tend to
bloom anywhere from late March to late April.
Some years,
we’ve definitely had more blooms by April 1st, and some years,
they’re just barely starting to bloom around this time.
I love azaleas,
so it always makes me very happy when they bloom.
So what about
you? Do you like azaleas? Are they in bloom where you are?
