It is definitely spring here.

With your still slushy spring, they sound like the perfect footwear. Love the reminder that miracles happen whether we notice or not, but isn't it more wonderful to witness them.<br /><br />I feel as you do about clean. Congrats on having both pockets of relaxation AND a clean house!nikkipolanihttp://nikkipolani.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-6324397652434982652019-03-22T13:35:56.598-06:002019-03-22T13:35:56.598-06:00oh yes I am DEFINITELY THANKFUL it is Spring now!!...oh yes I am DEFINITELY THANKFUL it is Spring now!! Today is our coldest day of the week....lol...i was back to wearing a sweater to work with a thicker jacket but it'll warm up again I hope. The beginning of the week was just glorious!<br /><br />I LOVE getting my housework done during the work week so I can enjoy the weekend but that doesn't always happen here. <br /><br />Yay for quiet moments to sip coffee and read good books. I just reviewed the latest Picoult book earlier this week and I JUST finished the very best book I've read in a very long time. It gets a 20.

I have my short boots for working in the yard but those ankle length shoes sound ideal for the season of mud. You are enjoying the same warmth and sunshine that we've had this week, too, such a nice change! It's great not having to bundle up to go out. Hope you have a good weekend~!ellen b.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14531430948905935301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-37073175993743729242019-03-22T09:27:32.680-06:002019-03-22T09:27:32.680-06:00Good point about the vacuum cleaner!

I know we'll get the inevitable snow in April, but it sure is nice to enjoy until then. <br /><br />Love a good sale, and how fun to have something new in your closet for a new season,<br /><br />Feeling your excitement for the trip!

I am the same way. I need to give the kitchen floor a good scrub and then I could really feel relaxed! :)<br /><br />I'm so glad that you had pockets of time to relax this past week. I am also glad that you shared about "pockets of time" because sometimes I think I need a nice window of time to really relax but your reminder that just taking time to have a cup of tea or read a chapter or watch a show helps me. I will be putting that into practice.

I haven't gotten out my spring clothes yet, but I love the changeover in the closet from dark and heavy to lighter colors and textures. I know what you mean about cleaning being relaxing in the end. And yay for pockets of time to relax. I love how God plants them in our days.Barbara H.http://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-79745548025576330622019-03-22T03:21:11.883-06:002019-03-22T03:21:11.883-06:00I am very glad to hear those words as well.

Both of my rainboots wore out. aspiritofsimplicityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14870339828098281415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-51432279533842650622019-03-22T03:20:25.047-06:002019-03-22T03:20:25.047-06:00I don't separate winter and summer clothes any...I don't separate winter and summer clothes anymore, one stack of the warm one stack of the spring and summer season and that's it. We don't have such very cold winters only very seldom. Fortunately I have a cleaning lady who is very much welcome because with the age some things become difficult to do ! Now I need even somebody for the garden all things Mr. G. had done before and now can't do it anymore because of heavy arthritis in his hands !Gattinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06636525277807715146noreply@blogger.com
