I was just thinking I could maybe switch from sewing fabric to sewing seeds mode.  Shouldn't have thought that as a major spring storm has swung by with lots of freezing rain.  Hope it kills that smart alecky dandelion under the south window!  The snow is pretty much gone and I even have a few crocus waving about.  I did put my ducks out and some of Dh's fowl friends are wandering over into the yard.  The new lambs are skipping about and they and their mothers were the only idiots that stayed out during the rain.  sheesh  No leaves on the trees but I did see a slight green haze over at a neighbouring town.

Our wee Joshua is 9 days old.  6 lbs. 8 oz. so I won't be getting him a wheel barrow and rubber boots till next year.  Seems to be a good baby and has hardly disrupted the household at all.  So far so good!  8^)

This rain should get things greening and then it'll be time to be outside.  I'll try for balance this year as I do have some sewing projects that need finishing.  Dh is also inserting his 'must haves' into my garden budget.  This could be the year of the fruit trees!  I gotta keep him somewhat interested as he has said this could be the year of the potting shed!  Yay!

So I guess it is :  "on your mark, get ready, set, GO!"
