How is your April starting out? If you find it was bit bumpy, today is a great to call in a 'do over' .. Start fresh, we have a lot of April left. Am I the only one that thinks in 'months' like that?
My goal to cross stitch each day is going pretty well.. one day I think I only did 2 stitches, BUT that counts!! I am also looking at how I want to plant this year. I am hoping my left wrist will be strong enough, but I may have to ...
How are you doing my friend?
I'm checking in to see how you are doing? It's March and soon we'll see signs of spring, so say I'm giddy about that would be a huge understatement! On a recent walk I spotted a little yellow crocus coming up at my neighbor's home, I really need to plant some so I can enjoy those! When I got back I went around my yard and discovered teeny tiny buds on my trees, the world will come alive in a few weeks in my area of Northern Virginia.
How ...
