Two Sides to the Coin

This has been a week in which Spring has received it's invitation and the signs are that it has accepted.  From the worms that couldn't make it off the pavement following the rains,  to the crocuses and tulips that are trying to say it's time, and to the temperatures in the 50s and 60s which have made it all possible. One side of the coin is the Ahhhh!  The fresh air, open windows, soft breezes, smells and colors of Spring to which the early springtime flowers contribute so much...

 

to the other side of the coin, the uhhhh!  The uhhhh includes the attention needed for the weeds which have outpaced the flowers in their appearance, the shrubs which failed to weather the winter so well and need replacement, and, oh yes, the 75 bags of mulch that need spreading.  



The coin landed heads up meaning ahhhh prevails but the  ughhhh will no doubt for a short while follow the uhhhh after the mulch is spread.  Hope you're enjoying your spring.  ...til later...
