when SPRING springs...

How do you know its SPRING?  Is it that cold glass of sauvignon blanc on the back deck at 5 and you are NOT wearing a wool sweater, parka and gloves for the first time since September? (YES)  Is it hanging laundry out in the sun?  Is it gossiping with your neighbors and their fuzzy golden doodle as you walk your dog?  Or is it browsing the free crap on the sidewalk, items left out by neighbors for ANYbody to have? (for the record, the orange chair was FREE, the bathtub= 200 bucks, but they will take 50...it has lion's feet!  Sorry, no photo of THAT one yet....and I did pick up elsewhere the most awesome stack of ten paperbacks you have even seen!)

    Looks like Penney wants that chair. Did you drag it home for her?

    Just to show you can teach an old dog...etc. I never tried hanging jeans by their legs on the line! Good idea.

    I hope this time it's not a tease and spring is here for real! I forget how quickly big dogs grow....up!

    I do love the photo of M. on the dinosaur!

    Yard sales and free article take-away is fun. I'm clearing my house of stuff.. readying it for moving sometime soonish (I hope) and have recently discovered Freecycle. It works wonderfully.

    Maybe you need a "Little Free Library" so you can pass along your good paperbacks. It's a very cool thing. I'd have one here if I thought anyone around me would actually read.

    That dog is SO FLUFFY!!!!!
