First Day of Spring!


For those of you still experiencing snow - I am sorry but even if it doesn't look like Spring outside - Spring is here and your snow will soon be melting.

To me Spring means growing things, weeding things, and mowing things.  It also means nearly an end to paperwork(we just finalized our Corporate taxes with the accountant, very complicated as we incorporated, he is also doing our personal taxes once we get a slip or two more, I just issued our first real paychecks, and submitted our GST/HST for the year - lots of government garbage) and planning for the future.

It also means GARAGE SALE SEASON is has started on Vancouver Island and is starting in a month or two in other colder climates.  My favorite!  Happy Spring.

  1. Spring has arrived here, too! No irises, but lots of daffodils, crocuses, primroses and . . . weeds. Looks like I've got to get out there and start pulling!
    Have a great day!

    1. I have been sick so have not done any yardwork but hubby did mow the grass for the first time since November. The weeds are waiting for me.

    1. Sorry - but it only takes a couple warm days to start melting all that snow.

    1. Alberta still has loads of snow too - I hope things calm down as we are driving over the mountain pass in two weeks to clear out the house and bring what we can fit in the car back.

    1. There were two garage sales listed this weekend although I am not going as most of the items listed were not things I am interested in. Another few weeks!
