Spring Activities in Progress

Hello Everyone,

It’s been awhile since I’ve updated my blog… ok, a few days. The warmer temperatures finally came, signaling that Spring cleaning is inevitable. No more excuses. I have to finally dry clean then archive the thick coats once again, throw out things which I thought were still useful only to pile up and other “fun” Spring cleaning related stuff that I don’t want to bore you with. Fact of the matter is I always have to remind myself that I am the housekeeper-in-charge and I don’t have a more senior female to remind me of the different chores that need to be done to run the household. Although I have been pretty much independent and have lived away from home as an adult before getting married, a household here in the US needs more stuff to be done due to the change of seasons. The heating/cooling system need to be serviced, the yard has to be done right or we get a love letter from the HOA, the gutters cleaned, the flower bed’s mulch need to be changed, I can go on and on. However it’s not all chore stuff that keeps me busy, I enjoy planting flowers. I wait until the temperatures rise to plant annuals like the geraniums and petunias so that I they don’t get damaged by frost. I wanted to post a sample of the flowers from the past but my Windows computer’s hard drive crashed then the external back-up crashed too. I am not making this up, these machines must be conspiring against me. I have off-site back-up, I just need sometime to go through everything again because only the master copy has been backed up and not the sorted ones. Just how many back-ups are enough? The question is how important is the data to you? Anyway, I’m just rambling on and wanted to give an update since I always point to this blog when people want to have more details.
