for today

for today...

outside my window... 54F/partly cloudy/scattered showers @ 2:30pm

i am thinking... I need a new 'squirrel-proof' birdfeeder from the Agway

i am thankful for... the warmth of the sun

i am wearing... black leggings, thermal shirt, fleece vest & Birkenstocks

i am going...  grocery shopping

i am currently reading... "You Never Forget Your First: A Biography of George Washington,"

by Alexis Coe

i am hoping... that since March came in like a lamb, it will go out like a lamb too

on my mind... gas @ $2.64/gallon, milk @ $3.85/gallon, butter @ $2.99/lb

pondering these words...

"March bustles in on windy feet,

And sweeps my doorstep and my street;

She washes and cleans with pounding rains,

Scrubbing the earth of winter stains;

She shakes the grime from carpet green,

Til naught but fresh new blades are seen;

Then, house in order, all neat as a pin,

She ushers gentle springtime in."

~ Susan Reiner, Spring Cleaning ~

from the kitchen... 

center cut pork chops with onion/mushroom gravy

mashed potatoes

buttermilk biscuits

espresso cupcakes

around the house... spring cleaning supplies

one of my favorite things...  watching the deer wander down the hill

i'm creating... the March Challenges @ The Lilypad

a few plans for the week... firewood delivery, yardwork

repair the Front Porch Windows from the last Winter Storm Winds

from my lens:

* oh this squirrel lol *

he knocked out the feeder perches to get access to the birdseed,

but, he did leave enough seeds on the ground for the birds
