Hi!

It's short week this week (and next) with Good Friday and Easter Monday holidays for the kids and HH.

Even though the snow is still around (and it's cold today), the pussy willows are right on schedule!  The good thing about the snow being around is that I can reach the high branches in our ditch.  

Usually, the snow is gone and I can't reach those high pussy willow branches with the fuzzy grey things.  I have to go down to the pond.  But this year I was able to go right up on the snow! Here are the branches I cut. 

I plan on putting them in the front window boxes 

 along with some of the fake greenery that's been in the back window boxes

 for a year or so.  I didn't want to buy any new fake greenery yet, so I'm just moving the stuff that I already have.

A lot of the puddles have dried up (or frozen, since it got below freezing Wednesday night!), but here are a few in the back yard.  

This is where the pool used to go. It'll need a little filling this year!

Also, the patio has a bit of a puddle! 

The patio is due for an overhaul (along with the breezeway).  Not sure if this will happen this year or not....

I went for a walk again yesterday and today.  When I went Tuesday, my right shoe rubbed the back of my ankle in a funny way and left a sore spot.  I'm wearing a bandaid now and put some moleskin on the back of the shoe.  That seemed to help a bit. I also walked funny, toe first, yesterday and now my calves are sore! 

I guess I got these shoes about a year ago.  I may need to replace them. 

Happy Easter! :-)
