We had three major snow storms in less than ten days and the white stuff is just barely melting now. Actually, we barely missed another layer of white last night -- it left about a foot at Lake Tahoe, but rained here. That has just added to the drippiness.
The never-know weather department says we'll have 60 degrees within a couple days, and tho' Donna already has a plant-me-now gaze in her beautiful eyes, my skepticism suggests that winter hasn't finished up with us yet.
Planting is not at the very top of my honey-do list at this time. In fact, the project pile is overwhelming me and I'm not really sure just when that will clear itself. Once, it was just the stuff that I wanted to get done. Now, Donna has her priorities as well. Then there is church, where things continue to be asked of us. We are working up a comical musical number for the talent show in one week, which I will emcee (that is a lot of prep work too). Then I have another sermon to write/prepare/deliver in a month. There is Donna's 40th reunion from AA to attend, and her niece's wedding. We "want" to make another trip or two as well. Then there are all the around home projects, mostly improving things (we hope), from painting to construction to organizing. It never seems to end! Oh, there are taxes to do too.
I guess I have joined the masses now, for this is all considered "fairly normal," a term with which I'm not really familiar. Sigh.
