PETS

I gave away my cat Maggie to one of my younger sisters yesterday. Maggie stayed at this particular sister's place quite often when I needed to travel, so it is not a strange place to her. She will be quite comfortable there.

It got to the point where taking care of Maggie was too stressful considering coming into my house was a battle every time I opened the door,  she'd try to go outside! I've always had animals around when the kids were growing up and even afterwards, but they were outdoor cats and dogs.
Anyway, I am relieved and happy she is in a good home.

Spring has finally arrived, even though there is still lots of snow in the woods and in some peoples' back yards. It will take a while for the sun to melt those three inches of ice under those mounts of snow. Very unusual spring for sure, but the crocuses are blooming and the tulip bulbs are popping up and should be open by the end of the month...hope!

Now back to raking the yard...not. My back is not up to it these days. The grass will come up and the lawn mower will make it look just as neat as if I had jut about crippled myself up raking it!  So there!
