Well, spent the last two days raking leaves and junk from the flower beds. it has been my intention to get a head start on spring in the jungle for the last two years and always, always, something comes up. well not this year. i made a promise to those little snow drops and daffodils and struggling tulips that this year they would have the perfect backdrop all freshly raked and weeded.
and i came through, yes i did. and now it's snowing and i fear for the little flowers. maybe i threw off their winter blanket too soon! and we shall have shriveledd and forlorn little daffodils. no. it cant be so. i believe in you tough little guys. together we brave the last snarls of winter and in spring shall be GLORIOUS!
also of note, today is carnavale at school. so this morning i kissed good-bye a karate kid, a pussy cat, and a sort of flower-girl-pink-haired-not-so-sure-what-i-am-but-wanna-be-cool-so-i'm-not-over-doing-it teenager.
and the red squirrels are out. hello squirly. i'm ready for spring too.
