April, as usual, has flown by...Daffodil's are blooming, apricot and plum trees are budding out, with apples not to far behind...It is a tricky time of the year here, when blooms struggle to open and await the bees to pollinate, while the temperature can drop suddenly and wipe out the hopes of any fruit...So goes our spring weather.
Yesterday was another cool day, trapping me in the house, wondering what to fix for dinner...I did manage to clean the bathroom, then swept the kitchen floor, while Herb vacuumed...Before I could get comfortable listening to my mystery series, Pam arrived thinking we should celebrate, since she would be returning to work on Monday and our card games would be put on hold...The wine bottle was soon empty, chips and hummus quickly disappeared, we laughed and bantered for a couple of hours and she came out the winner again!..It was a fun afternoon.
If it warms up enough today, Herb and I will start a new project...Our friends "The Gilberts" have loaned us their wood splitting machine, so instead of splitting malls and wedges we will use the machine to split, then load the wood and haul it from the pasture to the wood room in our basement, getting prepared for another winter...That should keep us busy for several days, since we work in short shifts and rest often...Hugs to All...OWAV:)
